Fluent German translator / ebay.de / Overseas communicator

To make this brief-

One of my friends is looking to purchase a part for his car that is
available somewhere in Germany. He wants to pay someone to handle the
leg-work, in exchange for the part he wants.

If anyone speaks/works in fluent German, or can offer a reference it would be
of great help. My only other idea at this point is to go to GAP and ask them.
He works at Autobahn Centre on Central, and tried all his resources with no luck,
so asked me to post here.

No, he isn’t looking for “overnight parts” - its a manual trans. for his diesel merc.

Thanks Shift-

tell your ‘friend’ hes a fucking fag.

Use an online translator?

Ok, its not that easy- he is trying to locate/purchase something
in a different country. It will be necessary to speak with part-yards
over the phone.

Soundboards won’t do the trick with this one, thanks

You should ask your friend to check with this group that does meetups in German in the Albany area. If he takes time to do a couple e-mails and he should be able to come up with a reference fast.

Second idea is to go through craigslist and put something in under “services”. You could find some low cost help there, maybe even free, depending on how much translation is needed.

Last idea, call up RPI or SUNYA and check with the language department. A professor or TA may be able to refer you or do the work on the side (more likely the TA, I would hope a tenured prof has better things to do than call up Bogart Autohaus and ask for parts :lol)

I minored in German and was capable of conversation at some point but only remember bits and pieces now- unfortunately not enough to help your friend.

Hope he finds what he is looking for.

Oh, I’m not sure if there is an office around here or not but there are companies that specialize just in translating. Try looking one of them up or posting a CL, I’m sure there are some German speakers in the cap. region that would more than happy to help.

PM sent:thumbup

my buddy phil could do it. if hes not in iraq.

Or I could have Robert Dubler translate, since he lives in Switzerland :slight_smile:

Thanks man, this will probably be the route hes looking to take

Who?Me?no PM

Thanks man, let me know

Say What
If he has the time, this seems like a very legit option

:bangheadPM sent again, last one went the wrong direction

Lol, i’m driving that very truck around right now. I should pull the CCW’s out of storage and out them back on it :rofl

Yeah, if you can give me some specific details, I’ll talk to amanda and Robert and see what they recommend/can do. I’m their hired hand here in the states when they want to buy a car/car parts and ship them overseas to switzerland. Just did that to the 2010 Camaro SS and the jag E-Type.

BUMP
