What is your problem man, of my last 4 for sale posts, I have said at the bottom “please leave all comments to PM” and you still negatively comment on my thread. I have noticed this with other threads too, and have come to the conclusion that 90% of your 1500 posts have come from just posting stupid shit in peoples classifieds threads. In mine, you say your buddy has kei’s for 450. Thats a pretty amazing deal man if its true, but you know what? Instead of having some courticy and not posting this in my thread, why dont you go make your own? Those would sell in a heart beat. Im pretty sure you have just made it up to make my thread look like shit, and you really need to find something better to do with your time. I have been banned for saying “nice car man” in a for sale section, where the poster doesnt even say not to comment, and you say the stupidest shit ever in everyones for sale threads and somehow get away with it. The worst part is I know why you do, because your a paid member. I think ill just pay the $10 or whatever it is so I can just go spend my day shitting on peoples for sale threads. So honestly man, fuck off, Have some respect and dont comment on my thread if I tell you not to. If you have a better deal, make your own thread, or message me in PM and tell me my price might be a little high. Now im just ranting, but this is so bull shit. The mods wont do a thing about it, so I think im just gonna pay the $10 so I get some equal treatment around here.

I know every single one of the ‘management’ as you called them. And I was banned twice in 2 weeks.

Your point is completely invalid.

ya I dont know any of the management and i make quite a few stupid post… or was that on tnc??  
dont remember but i dont think its whether you know them or not  
its just how you handle it (ie. complaining and shitting on them makes them happy and gives them better reasons to ban you.)

as for the whole sale thing I guess its kind of rude but welcome to SON man…  
shit happens

The bottom line is, in my mind, you’ve got to let people sell their stuff for what they’re going to sell it for.

If you want to buy it but think the price is unreasonable, just PM the seller.

If you think they are posing a threat or ripping people off, maybe start a thread in Car chat, Front desk or Drama to call them out and/or inform others.

That’s me anyway.

well what if i come along and im like ohh those things are supposed to be amazing coils i guess i’ll buy them…

Platoons pm’s him the price is two high but the guy doesn’t change it… Or he posts in the thread that “usually something like that is sold for 500 flat…”

Then im like ohh well maybe i have to look into this more or possibly wait for something else to come up.

In reality i do this everyday. Mind you that i do research most things if not everything i buy… but sometimes i have to admit im a bit of an impulse buyer when i have cash in hand… so comments like these do help.

If the seller thinks its a fair price im sure a buyer out there will think its a fair price.
