LOL, im not offended. And as a promoter everyone on here already knows who I am. LOL.

You can not ever offend me. I was laughing at what you posted cause you were the only one to make a comment about wasting your time. I thought that was funny since others have stated differently.

Thats my opinion.

And to clarify on wasting time I mean by making a thread that you had to read that you believe wont change anything. Thats what I mean by wasting your time.

BTW being a promoter doesnt mean I cant say what I want. Thats precisely why I am a promoter. I say it like it is, and not how I wish it was.

BTW love the car.

From my experience, people who act like this have shitty parents that raised them wrong. F-ck them and their ******** parents. People in TX like to bitch about illegal immigrants, but I'd trade an honest immigrant over a shitty USA citizen anyday. Maybe we can deport the USAssclowns?

Well its definately a good thing to see everyone feels the same way I do. I think people are going to get fed up with it soon enough and there will be harsh consequences to deal with.

I already was reading something about a attorneys office only now deals with internet fraud. Thats another sad sign that people are doing this enough to where the lawyers and attorneys are soley dealing with this matter. But its also good because these internet criminals are getting taken for everything and left with ****.

The morale of the story is....there has been a lot of sacrifice by others to make this country what it is today. I spent 10 years and went through a number of deployments travelling to other areas on the earth that words cannot properly describe. Wretched, poor, diseased, embattled...to just name a few.

Your credit, and word are about the only to things that truely can measure your character.

Hope so...

I figured you hadn't checked the prices on overnighting when you sent me that last PM. It would be like $80 bucks or something to overnight that converter.

And to stay on topic, honest sellers are a pleasure to deal with. Getting ripped off sucks.

Here is kind of a short rant about my experience last friday...

I took my car to a local reputable shop (Liggio's in Dickinson for those who know where that is.) to get my alignment done. Long story short, they dropped my car off a floor jack and bent a tie rod end. They fixed it at no cost to me, but then had the audacity to charge me for an hours worth of labor after breaking my car. They did no real work on my car, just diagnostic stuff (i.e. stare at it and scratch their heads). I dont think a good shop would have done that, so I will not be going there anymore, and wouldn't advise anyone else to either. I think a mechanic should atleast be able to operate a floor jack properly.

I have been ripped for about 700. I hate it and feel for those that have been ripped for more. Money is money, but its hard to respect someone you thought was a friend when they screw you.

I frequent that forum pretty much every day and try to help those guys out as much as possible. We all know that racers shouldnt do that to each other, but there are ********* in every facet of life... cant control it. Hopefully I have helped someone get at least some of their money back. That forum is the exact reason that I will only purchase new parts from a good source. I would be going ballistic if I were in one of those guys shoes, which is why I try to help them out.

I was raised to protect my credit like my daughter's virginity. But some people raise dirty hoes.... I wonder how their credit is.

BTW, credit is basically a rating for your word.

Thank you Zach! But go easier on the supremacist attitude next time lol.

LOL, after reading my original post several times I realize it was a bit rough. But **** do you think these con artists should be told differently? I will always defend the honest and I will always hate the scum.

Just the way I am.

Hmmm...I didn't say he was ripped off did I?...here read my post again...just to make sure you didn't misunderstand. Back in college I was encouraged to read a sentence more than once so I didn't answer unintelligibly.

Great post Zach. A wise man once said, "Freedom isn't free, there's a hefty ******* fee. If we don't all chip in we'll never pay that bill. Freedom isn't free, it cost folks like you and me. If you don't throw in your buck o'five who will?" Oh wait...that was Team America World Police...sorry.

All joking aside...good post.
