Re: AM I wrong in being disappointed?
I believe I covered this somewhere in this thread. There were no sill plates at all. Two minutes after being unloaded from the car carrier I open the doors. Upon opening the doors I can see serious rust on the passenger side where the sill plate would have gone. There is no way this was unknown.

Re: AM I wrong in being disappointed?
A little hidden rust, maybe its a mistake and he missed it. This much, is just plain wrong.

My integrity is worth more than that, I could NOT do that to anyone. Last vehicle I sold long distance I insisted on a pre purchase inspection. The buyer said it was better than described.

Re: AM I wrong in being disappointed?
You're right. your integrity is worth more.
I for one will be the first one to trash talk something I'm selling. I don't want anything coming back.Sometimes I think that I'm too negative about what I sell. But I haven't scared anyone off yet by being honest. I just put it all out there and if they want it, they want it. And if they don't. Then they don't. I don't care either way. I don't want to waste anyone's time or my time with a bunch of B.S. I guess that I just got lucky on my last two internet car purchases. And I was plenty nervous because they were both expensive cars. But I had the Carfax and they were both fine.(Whew). Except for paying the insurance on them. My insurance company loves me for buying them. I'm sorry for your troubles.People should conduct business in a professional manner. But it doesn't always work that way. There's plenty of crooks out there hiding behind a smiling face.

Re: AM I wrong in being disappointed?
I've been watching this thread for a while, and I would be just as PO'd, if not more, to say the least. I'm not familiar with what Admin can do about it, if anything, but that is definitely NOT "Rust Free"! You have called yourself an "Idiot" enough times, so I think you should stop saying it. That's just me, but I also read earlier responses from one member who suggested something to the effect that you should buy a Honda Civic, since you aren't any good at buying old Chevy Trucks. He also mentioned that the justification for his response was because your were the one who posted "This Crap".
I'm pretty sure that's not what you needed to hear, nor should it be the purpose for this forum to kick a man when he is down. Sounded to me like the member who posted that response was probably the one who sold you the truck. By the way, what's the status? I hope you get, or got it figured out. Chris. |

Re: AM I wrong in being disappointed?
I have been burnt before and know better than to buy something I have not seen or have not sent someone else to inspect. So I shoulder 1/2 the blame.
BTW I have done it again and bought another Blazer from a forum member sight unseen (I'll never learn but I have much better expectations this time). It spent 6 months at a local body shop and all he did was strip the quarters and let it sit for 6 months. After pulling it out I brought it to a mechanic/fabricator I have known for over ten years. We powder coated the frame. All QA1 coil over suspension and sway bars. Big Wilwood brakes and a brand new crate LS#/4L70. That is here SOME PICTURES OF PROGRESS It is now at the body shop where windshield frame rot, quarter rot have been discovered and the door skin I bought can't be used as there is not enough door left! I have NOS quarters on the way and am going to look at a passenger door to hopefully solve that issue? With all that being said I never once named the bad seller. A few members found out who he was (not hard) and have PMed me with their experience. It is what it is. I am too far into this to stop now. Thanks for the kind words and support. Quote:

I had a few minutes, so I went through the past 3 years PM. I cant find any about this. I searched for reported posts. I can't find any about this. I did find aa few deleted threads about the issue. I did find a few not shipped posts on the sellers profile from bad sales (again no pm or reported post). The thing that caught my eye was this post , in general discussion, not in member reviews. With that said, I could had overlooked a contact about it, but I don't believe so. I am truly sorry that you had a bad deal with jensjimmy or whatever the name is. I did ban their account, but they have not been here since the transaction. Karma will get them, God don't like ugly. I am sorry you had this happen. I hope it doesnt ever again but yall.. just post it, review etc.. tell folks so they dont get fd next. |
