Who would pay $700 for an M30B35?

[ThatOneEuroE30]

I love it when people pull this shit when meeting for a CL deal. My favorite part of it all is when I walk to my vehicle door, get in and drive off. The expression is something I need to photograph one of these days, inevitably it will happen again. Even better is when they call back and offer the asking price, that's when I tell them it's 20% more now for dealing with their bullshit. Only reason I'd take less than what I was asking is if I was either hurting for the money, or I liked the buyer. Unfortunately for OP...

LOL usually how goes for me. I pull the same shit though haha only when its obo I don't even usually talk price until I'm in person most I'll ask is if its negotiable.

1500 cash? Were you planning on paying with something else?

[Van Westervelt]

Nice. Pm'd.

I did find them for that. But I wouldnt sell them for that. Especially to someone with your attitude.

I am with Farbin. The look on peoples faces when I walk away is almost worth it. I told two people that I would not sell them the e34 I just sold this fall. "But I have the money right here...?" "Yes, yes you do. Now go find someone who gives a damn."

That's perfectly fine it's really your choice as the seller. I wouldnt call back and offer asking price tho, that's a little pathetic. Not to mention wishy washy. If I give an offer it's because I've analyzed the trade and that's what I'm willing to pay for it. Pretty simple stuff here. If a buyer's able to point stuff out that's wrong with a car or explain why it's not worth the asking price, hey, good on him. If he's just low balling to low ball that's kinda lame, but its still his right to anyway. Don't be so butthurt as to take it personally. It's just business. When I bought my first e30 we haggled over the price a bit, but it should be expected. We met at a price that we both felt comfortable. What's wrong with that? If you're not comfortable selling it, by all means, don't sell it.

Unfortunately for me what? You don't even know me and I wasn't making a trade with you. I'm sure if you met me you would like me. I'm a perfectly amicable guy. And if you're gonna be so quick to judge me based on such a trivial scuffle as this, as misconstrued as it was, fine. Like I said I'm perfectly amicable and have plenty of other friends who support and appreciate me.

Hey there makeshift, you're gonna have to stop replying to this thread soon. Cause if you don't, your user name is gonna be burned into the minds of everyone who is reading it. Then none of your questions will be taken seriously and this incredibly useful forum will be a lot less useful for you.

The only way this thread (and your rep for being a whiny, cheap ass) will die is if it becomes much less entertaining. The only way that will happen is if you stop posting (F thirty-four R already has stopped). Good luck bro, but if someone offered me $200 (your haggle difference) to never use r3v again, I wouldn't take it.

You're right:/

I like my username.

And I think we can close the thread now.

Face to face it would really been like:
Me: Started at 2,400 for everything worked to 1,800 for everything.
You: "How about $1,500 CASH?"
**Pulls out the bank roll**
Me: How about no. You have a long drive home without a car.

it wasn't a car, but we were selling some of our kids old toys on CL. I'm emailing this girl over a $50 item, she arranges to come pick it up. Whole family shows up in a minivan, looks like they've been in the car for a while.

their mom: it was $40 right?

me: uh, no. it was $50.

mom: she asked you if you could do $40

me: no, no she didn't. it's $50.

them: will you take $40?

me: no, sorry, $50.

at that point, I was just annoyed. Plus, sold it the next day for $50. flaky people suck.

An amazing thread.

I feel like I missed something.

Someone has got to tl:dr

F34R you didn't fix anything for me besides the prices. I said that's how I imagined it to go, I just didn't realize what kind of person I was dealing with at the time.

Started at 2,400 for everything

$2,400 is news to me. But let's entertain this: $1,500 for a luxorbeige 4 door cloth interior shell, $700 for a junkyard M30 no comp test, and $200 for mounts? Uhh yea I'll pass.

The sad part is my offer was $300 under your asking price, and that's exactly the amount that you ripped off Mr. Burns. HAH funny how the universe works. Anyway I'm done here, my builds going to start next weekend. You'll be able to read about it in my build thread.

My bad! I hope you can find a little old lady that will sell you one for 200.

How is this news to you? do you not listen when talking on the phone? I said I wanted 1,500 for a complete(NOT A SHELL, that shows how well you listen) 4 door e30 without rust on the east coast. You said you were not sure as that was not something you could afford and I said let me get pictures for you and we can talk. You mentioned you did not even have an engine...well I have one of those too! and where in the world are you thinking "junkyard"? Came from a RUNNING car not a junk yard, you asked if it was resealed and I said no that I bought it just for a mock up for my spare clip. You make all these assumptions and then post them showing what a child you are.

I look forward to watching you take out an engine(if you can even do that) and making an e30 worth even less.

THATS IT........SERIOUSLY.
