We need a full of sh*t sellers list Not only are some buyers full of ****, but several of the sellers on this site are full of ****.
What's up with getting upset at someone asking you to sell an item for less than it's listed for?
Did anyone on this site pay full asking price on the car they are modding?
It works both ways.You can't try and get a deal only when it's in your favor.
I could name 3 people on this site that act like female dogs when you ASK if they will sell an item for less than they list it for. If the price is non-negotiable put it in the add you dumb M-F's.
And is it asking to much for a poster to REMOVE the add after your item(s) sell?
You preach "Use the search". Well half the stuff is dead. Or is it just me?
Sorry. I just had to get that off of my chest.
Mods can we get a new list. We have one for everything else.
Vote on it!!!

You also can't expect to low ball people either. Pretty much everyone on here who sells & has a good trader rating sells under what they paid for it so they are already taking a hit on it, yet you expect them to take a even bigger hit when they get low balled??
I understand shooting a offer if it's listed as "obo" but if it's not & you try to go lower then the seller has no reason to lose anymore more money if it's already priced to sell even though others want something for nothing.
No need to remove items from ads either. Just list "sold" in bold lettering & it gets the point across unless your one of those people who don't actually read the thread before posting.
The system in place works just fine as long as the ****** scammers get caught. If you don't like how it's handled go buy from the speed shops & pay full price, otherwise let it go & move on.

I'm not suggesting that anyone sell anything for less than they can. I've offered $900 on a $1000 asking price and never even got so much as a **** off from a few sellers.
We all lose money with this hobby.
I know when I buy anything that it's a bad investment. I don't expect to get 75% of what I paid for an item that is 2 weeks old.
But that's not even the point.
The point is, If you won't accept anything less than the posted price, we need to put that in the original post. NON-NEGOTIABLE. That phrase means don't ask for a better price. This is LS1TECH. Not a Saturn or Carmax. Free trade is what America is all about.
Did you pay full asking price for every part that you've purchased off of this site?
Perhaps that should be the question.
We don't want to be so proud of our parts, that we can't tell a would be buyer (at a lower than we would like price) **** off for asking them in a respectful way.(PM)
A simple counter-offer or a NO is all that is needed.
I think it used to be called RESPECT.
Oh well. I'm old school. The new generation has lost some of it's ability to communicate effectivly with all of the texting.
If you don't like what you read. Ignore the message.
That won't take us as far as open communication will.

It hasn't stopped anyone from asking if I can cut them a better deal than the listed price. I can respect it though.
I was always told " You can't get what you don't ask for".
So it's only cool to ask for a better price if you see OBO? Wow. Well if I'm selling something, I welcome ALL OFFERS. I'm free to accept or reject it.
In regards to selling an item and just putting SOLD in the post. I've been using the SEARCH function, and it will pull up far to many SINGLE items that are sold. Is it asking to much to delete the post if the item is gone and the post is now irrelevant.
This will free up space on the server, and save US time, and promote it's usage.
Does that make GOOD SENSE, or is it asking to much from our membership.

i think they should keep the post even though it already has sold, because their are people here that like to scam you out of your money. and when you go through paypal or your bank u can go back and use that as evidence to help you get your money back.

Personally I always have, and always will, view a pricetag as an invitation to offer. Because that's what it is in the world of business, and any money transactions are considered business.

Regarding deleting posts, that defeats the trader rating system purpose if you can't link to the post.
There is nothing stopping any seller from using any words they want in a sale post; OBO, All Offers, Will Negotiate, ect pretty much say the same thing. So does Firm, No lowball offers, Asking price.

I don't know what to say but knowing this, I would word things a little differently.
Me too.
I paid asking price for everything I bought from this site.
And I also decided to avoid any transaction that I cannot drive to go pick up. If shipping is involved, I swear I've had three people tell me their mothers had heart attacks in a 8 month time period and thats why they took my money and will ship parts when they can, pure BS.
And if you see an ad that says add $x.xx for paypal fees= uptight *******--no deal.
Bottom line man, if you don't like the price go somewhere else. If you can't deal with the people go somewhere else.
JMO, maybe a little off topic I don't know.

You know the moderator of this section is female?
I don't know what to say but knowing this, I would word things a little differently.

No disrespect to ANY FEMALES. Poor choice of words. I didn't use the word that first came to mind.
The prices on this site are very reasonable for the most part. Lost a few good deals over small change. I learn slow. Input is very insightful. Thanks Tech.

most of the used stuff on this site, is alredy a deal. i dont see what the big deal is if the owner lists his price. i have been interested and bought and sold off members here with no probs. whatsoever. if i find the price fair, i pay for it if i get a fair offer for something im selling, its gone. simple as that.
i trust this site more than ebay. i will rather buy from a member or sponsor here.
