^This...
I hold for no one, money talks. A non-refundable deposit with an expiration date is the only thing i'll honor.
Next time, play it close to the chest, instead of blabbing. Shady buyer, should be ashamed but in this day and age, everyone's looking to make a buck.

Im 4hrs away and saw a car Saturday evening that I contacted the seller said hey I'm 4hrs away and so you know I am serious I will put MY MONEY where my mouth is and put a deposit till I can get to the bank Monday morning. I then contacted the buyer of my e30 and said I found a car I want come buy my e30 so I could have cash in hand FASTER than waiting for the bank to open Monday. I explained all this to the seller told him whether I sell my car or not is irrelevant because I will buy your car right now full amount sight unseen just to keep the parters away from it because worst case I get there and I bought a parts car. Its not throwing 70 grand at skyline in Tokyo like you do. You also talk about buying cars at 3am. Okay so I should demand this strangers address so I can drive 4hrs and stand outside his door or something? This wasnt a typical craiglist deal like you are talking. This is people on this and other bmw forums who try to present themselves as stand up guys. We've all dealt with craiglist deals. Not everybody selling a bmw on craiglist just happens to be the one of most popular people in the boosted world and a very popular and highly recommended member of every BMW forum under the sun. And the seller sells tons of e30 parts on here and other places. So these are people that the people who are reading this are familiar with not strangers on Craigslist. You dont even sound rational when you talk. Most 50 year old family men aren't meeting strangers at 3am with wads of cash 4hrs from home for a car on craigslist. So can you now understand, I had the money, I offered the money, he used me to get his buddy to give hime more than his buddy was offering but still not as much as me, all while me being completely transparent and punctual about returning messages, and being far more respectful and serious than a time waster on Craigslist. Nobody is right or wrong. This is about my experience and how we can all be humbled at any time. The post is titled karma not "hey *** is a jack ass" and I'm talking shit. This is about reflection. You can see the people who share their experiences and then those that try to breakdown forensically what happened. Its pretty simple what happened. The part that bothers me is the fact that this guy knew this car was there a year and made 4 offers and got told no, then he hears someone is about to outbid him so he steps in and pulls the bro deal card. The reason its disturbing is because the only reason the parter knew I was buying the car is because I contacted them saying " hey I'm about to buy this car and lets boost it up silly, so sell me an upgraded turbo and a front mount." the say no prob congrats on buying your new car and heres what we can do. I then got loose and said "yeah its the car he wouldn't sell you so you could part it". That made him mad that I didn't have to buy all the parts at a premium from him instead I got a whole car for what he charges for parts. Well the greed took over and silence. Still now, no reply. HMMMMM
and ill repeat, all that reply to me is "excuse excuse excuse"
if you wanted that car bad enough youd be sitting in it in your driveway rite now rather then making excuses why someone else beat you to it
also whats age have to do with anything, im 31 and i can say ive bought probably 3 cars in the past two years at all hours of the night.. if i find a good deal i jump on it, Period..
i also dont use banks for anything more then what i need to cover my monthly bills, cash is king, i dont need some financial institution telling me when i can and cannot get MY money..
i feel like your next novel will just be repeating what you already have 5 times so this is my last reply, maybe you learned something from thisIG: haggardfab

I was out riding on my high horse, it was such a nice day for a gallop. And I came up with this thought.... As I have learned in past experiences on here, there's always two sides to a story. There was no money on the car in question that the OP wanted, so it was never his to start with. But he is saying that there was a verbal agreement. Now it would be nice to hear from the seller, who ever the m30 boost wizard is on here lol. Cause right now it just seems like a drama fest from the OP that wasn't in the right place at the right time.

If the OP's story is accurate, I can see both sides of the coin here.
On one hand, we are such a tight knit community that it really sucks when a well known member screws someone. It also is a poor choice by said member because everyone knows everyone somehow and word will get around to others that you are dishonest, thus ruining your reputation.
On the other hand, c'mon op, when you find a good deal you need to do the best you can to do your own research and not give away the tip. If its something desirable for a steal you know everyone and their mom is going to try and snatch it up no matter who was attempting to buy it first.
We need both sides to be sure of what really went down, so for now I won't take sides.

OP sounds but hurt.
I didn't read anything he typed of course, but that's because everything he typed was way too long.
Seriously grow a pair of something. Go to that dudes house and put your foot up his ass waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles.Yours truly,

WOW ... some heartless folks on here.
I NEVER tell ANYONE of a deal until it's sitting in my driveway! PERIOD.
As for the story ... CASH talks & bullshit walks. Should have given the owner some cash to hold & wrote up a bill of sale with a pick up date & balance due. That would have ended the circus.
