hahahah reminds me of your old sig "everyone wants a 30,000.00 race car on a 10,000.00 budget"
12 bolt reared rated to 1,200 RWHP...no noise, no breakage just pure heaven.
You = "ummm it shattered with 550 rwhp and a 1.9 60 foot"
Them = "sorry you took it to the track"
Yea because we all buy 1,200 rwhp rated 12 bolts to drive to Stop n Shop.
hahahahahahahh
Ohhh you have a 16,000.00 car with 20,000.00 in mods? I'll give you 14,000.00 for it but if you didn't do a damn thing to the 16,000.00 car I would of gave you 15,000.00.
Cars are a money pit, you gotta love what your doing and want to be buried in the damn thing.

I offer what i would pay for the parts at that time.... If its something that i dont really need but if i can get it for a certin price then i will buy it. Not because i need it but because i got a good deal on it. I will pay more for parts that i need as oppose to parts i dont need but will by if i get a deal on it

The best is when they add in "I'll send payment right now" when they lowball you as if you're a crackhead looking for quick cash. I'd rather wait the week for them to save their change and give me my full asking price.
Slowhawk, between craigslist and the internet parts "retailers" selling stuff for $10 over cost the gypsies come out in full force.

I agree to a point, but I see too many people trying to sell used parts for the same or very close to new. Then when you make an offer, they get pissed because they paid $XX for it, even though now it is only $x new. Just because you overpaid, doesn't mean i'm going to pay extra.

Thw two things I love about Craigslist;
1. I have a motorcycle for sale on there, and dimwit after dimwit emails asking for more info, which I send to them, and never hear from them again. One wanted detailed pics, does this work, does that work, what ******* day of the week did it roll off the assembly line, send him all the requested info, no response. I want to ******* shoot those people.
2. Trying to buy something, call/email about, " I sold that a week ago". TAKE THE ******* AD DOWN YOU ******* MORON!!!

joe, lol i remember that. they told me there is no way i twisted them. i sent them one of them just to prove it.
ws6trans, you dont want to know about broken parts. you want to talk rear ends and drive train parts, how about 3 twisted axles, 1 broken axle, 3 posi units, 2 sets of gears (posi only) 1 set of regular gears on spool, 1 set of race gears on spool, 4 drive shafts (only one was a stock alum one) 3 6 spped tranys, and atleast 6 clutchs. im sure if i took more then 30 seconds i could come up with more, lol
part of racing tho. thats why im diggin my 9 second stock motors for $400 bucks.
just bought another one from a member, just have to go pick it up. lol
that might just be a spare for now and i might still build the ls2 (i also got for $500 with like new 243 heads!!!)

And to kinda reverse it, I want to get best $$ for a part and I will hold my ground for the most part. I am ok with taking 2/3rd of the retail price for a part, unless the TRUE going rate of a same/similar list part is more or less. I am ok with 66%, NOT 50% or less. I'd rather burn/break the item before selling it.

i agree with what the op is saying on lowballers looking for invisable deals....but i can tell you lately on here i've run into a few people that have been scooping up cheap parts on here and just turning around and reselling them at huge profits...this is cool and all and to each their own but alot of the lowballers and people strugglin to get parts arent able to get stuff they need without doing this to save money...i see as kinda an online swap meet...it just erks me when i try to get lt1 tail lights for example that were bought for 20 bucks and reselling the same set a few days later for 100

It's a dog eat dog kinda world out here and it sucks. And as the OP said, I really hate it when people TRY TO LOW BALL. Or just waste your time for days, and then say nevermind. Thanks Anyways.
It erks the $hit out of me soooo bad!
Glad I'm not the ONLY person who feels the same way as you guys.
Wish everyone had some kind of common sense. But, some people are about as smart as a box of rocks.
