it was the results from the last 2 weeks of dealer auction to make sure
it's current. there were more results that were older with similar
pricing, but from the mentality of the likes of you, you'd find reason
to pick it apart saying it's not current.
jesus christ, i had 1 comment, and i'm not the one choosing to keep this
going, i'm replying to the flamers because i am not the type to just go
away with my tail between my legs. posting the value of a vehicle is
not flaming, someone like you pouncing on this and picking it apart
however is, but that's usenet.... so knock yourself out, flame away. i
make no apologies for my actions because i don't see any wrong doing. i
have had people contact me as a result of me "price policing" vehicle
posts, thanking me for saving them money and asking me to find them a
vehicle for a fair value.... and i have sold to them, in spite of
flamers like you.
fact of the matter is, this post started with a guy asking six thousand
dollars for a car that should sell for $4000, get over yourselves
already. like the price police don't ever comment on anything else
around here, i just don't slither away and drop it if i feel i am in
line, all my figures are in line and posted to back me up as more than
just personal opinion. cry me a river for trying to do good to some
other people who use usenet, where is the benefit of you being involved
all of the sudden, this is going to help the op get $6000 for his car or
going to help a prospective buyer in his decision.... no, not at all,
has sweet f*ck all to do with it, my comment, was beneficial (maybe not
to the op, but to a purchasers decision)
i am not giving up on this for being wrong, but i am for the matter of
time, it's not worth having to justify anything to the likes of you.
