    I friggin hate selling e30 parts

    I have like 3 people that want my set of basketweaves, and another 3 people that want my 3.73 lsd.

    Everyone says they want the parts 100%, and they all want to come by on essentially the same day to pick up the parts.

    One person is actually harassing me because he thought I'd hold a part for him.

    Now I gotta be the dick that decides who gets what.

    How do you guys deal with shit, this shit is wtf. :curse:

    also, inb4 COOL STORY BRO.

      Just go with a new policy: first person with cash takes the part. Only works if posted in the original FS thread. Can never be added once PMing ensues.

          I would just up the price a measley $5.00 and see who's willing to halk up and take the hit. Honestly, it's hard as a seller because half if not more of the people flake out and you can easily burn an actual buyer by holding any part.

          First come, first serve. As in, first that puts money in my account or hand gets the part.
          Need a part? PM me.

            first come first serve is what i do, because people tend to flake out when holding parts for them which is a waste of my time.

              Here, I had a guy ask me 19 question's about some seats. He then asks how much for just two of the three offered. I give him a $100 off the top.

              He then responds, after 6 pictures, 2 close up's of things he wants, "shipped?"

              What in the fuck would make you think an already good deal is shipped for some fucking seats across the God motherfucking damned country? /rant.

              First cash, first serve.

                      You should be more clear with the buyers. Work with one serious buyer at a time and let the others know if the parts are pending or sold. Also, don't set a date for multiple buyers to show up at one time.

                        everything needs to be first come first serve. the only time it isnt is when you either know them personally or have done business with them in the past. holding parts is a waste of time. if they really want it, they will come get it. it's not your responsibility to make up their minds for them

                              Make them outbid each other. Or more specifically, LET them outbid each other. That's what I did when two people wanted to buy one of my E30s. I had it listed for $1000 and it sold for $1200.
