so im getting sued...

I baught a car for $800 and the undercarrage was so rusted it wouldnt pass inspection, I didint think to look because the guy said it was all perfectly fine. Worst part was I knew him. Well, I asked for my money back, he said he didint have it. I cut my loss and never spoke to him again for fucking me over. Shit happens. deal with it.

im really sad to see how you didn’t put “As Is” restriction on your bill of sale…

maybe u should just pay the $500 back and throw the car to junk yard?

So it didn’t run when you sold it?
So you lied about the guarantee.
So you should be refunding this person.

Thats pretty much my thaught.

yea i dont get this.
it didnt run when you sold it to her…but you garuntee’d it would?
please correct me if i am wrong.

I’m not reading this thread. I just saw that you sold a used $500 car that was guaranteed to run in writing. I can’t make any sense of this.

your going to lose it dont matter man never put gauranteed to run in there yes it runs. but not well. u lose my friend

I have two things to say:
1.) You say that the car did not run when she came to pick it up, and yet she handed money over to you. So in my opinion and hopefully the opinion of any reasonable person, she accepted the risk right there that this car may not be in working order.

2.) Quotation from NYS Lemon Law
ARE PRIVATE SALES COVERED?

No. If you bought your car from a private individual (rather than from a dealer) you are not protected by the Used Car Lemon Law. You should consult a lawyer for advice as to other possible remedies. If the purchase price was $3,000 or less, you may wish to pursue your claim in Small Claims Court.

I thought no matter what you wrote on the receipt in NY it was considered an as is sale.

She knew it didnt run when i sold it to her.i said its probably something stupid.
If you have read any of this thread it did run then suddenly stopped after my dad fucked with the carb on it.i told her all this.i knew about 50 people would say why would you sell it with a guarantee.it was that or 100 bucks for a junkyard what would you pick?

and jeg i dont like you

I could care less if you don’t like me, I don’t even know you. What I do know is you are a lying, cheating SOB. I hope she wins and you have to pay her expenses, whatever they may be, as well as take the loss because you are a fucking dumb ass the way you handled this situation.

i asked for advice in this thread on how to win.not what i did right or wrong.There arent any expenses you dumb fuck.oh and i did meet you at the bbq and your an asshat who trys to hard to be cool

wow…you must learn how to read…I said expenses if any, meaning if there are any you should pay them :bloated:. I don’t remember meeting you, but I could care less. Why don’t you go try to rip someone else off to try to cut your losses.

Oh, and btw, I dont try to “act cool”, I am the way I am. I just like to have fun. Like it or leave it, I don’t care…I am not the one being sued for being an asshole :).

no shit… you should almost lose this case as a lesson. Luckily it is only 500 dollars. I’ve sold perfectly running cars that have said nothing but SOLD AS IS… a guarantee in a sale receipt is really, really, stupid.

Yeah…especially when the car DOES NOT RUN, regardless of why not or how recently.

I don’t know…but as long as the engine turns over, fires up, it runs. Your not a mechanic, so how do you know how well it runs. You turn the key, and it runs. No questions asked. You didn’t say “Garanteed to run perfect”. You simply stated that there will be fire in the chamber.

The best advice anyone can give you is not to put a guarantee on something.

As for how to win…you won’t so why bother speculating?

You have, in your own writing that it will run. She picks it up and you tell her it doesn’t run verbally. So now you are contradicting what you have in writing. Its her word & the bill of sale vs. your word = you lose.

And as for reading your thread. Who could understand this shit? You keep saying, it runs, then your dad did something, then it didn’t run, then it was guaranteed to run, then it had to be towed away, then the woman drove it and it was fucked up…etc.

it actually runs but not well.She said it ran for her but no compression in one of the rotors.if she admits to that i should be set

So why the legal action then?

she said on the phone that it cant perform.i asked her about 3 or 4 times if it ran and she always said yes but it dosent perform.i meant it to perform
