and the people on the ebay know these are worth money, the starting bid i set was $450...theres 5 days left and its already at $565, so i'm already profitting...plus i put the buy it now at $850, so i'm not really doin them that bad lol
around here we call that "shady".

in my opinion this speak volumes about your personality. You could have easily said "these retail for $1700 and my buy now price is $850. So take advantange of this great deal" But yet you chose to lie about a couple of things that you didn't have to. Second nature to you isn't it?

Dude I'm filing you under never do business with or accept his word on anything category.

chill out buddy, people like to hear a story, whoop-ti-freakin do...if i sold some crooked stuff then fine go ahead and judge me. i dont care if you're the pope...u dont know me, u know nothing about me, u dont know my personality, and u have no right to say anything like that about me

comments like that u can keep to urself...ask anyone on this forum that knows me, and i can guarantee there wouldnt be a bad word about me
you need to chill out with ur judgmental b.s.

the day i do a bad business deal and someone is unhappy, i'll personally come to you and tell you that you were absolutely right

u cant go around saying stupidness like that cus not only is it going to ruin my credibility for no reason, but its just wrong to do...u dont wana do business with me, then fine no one is forcing u to

and dont say ur looking out for people on the forum cus that doesnt apply to this, its not shady at all...ebay is for people of the world and i gave a description that was accurate to the item but a stretch on the story of why i'm letting them go, a good reason for why ur selling ur product gives the consumer a peace of mind, thats business 101...if i sell on this forum its for hobby, not for business, notice i'm not a vendor of anything

and just for the record everything i wrote my description on that item was correct, except that i totalled my car and that i paid $1100, i didnt total it but i did have to get rid of the calipers because i couldnt afford to do that build cus i was fixing my car from the accident

thats all believable and 95% of it is accurate...otherwise i would have had ppl on ebay saying that i was a lying S.O.B.

thank you and please just let this whole thing go, i dont want to turn a thread into an argument for something so stupid and petty

That is quite a long winded defense. meh what can I tell you... I call it as I see it. Only you know if I hit the nail on the head.

Just speaking from experience. People who lie about the most mondane stuff rarely (more like never) tell the truth when it is not advantageous to them. If that ain't you then I apologize.

For the record I'm not trying to tarnish your credibility. All I stated was that "I" (meaning me) am filing you under a certain category of people not to do bussiness with. Only affecting me, and I am telling you why as liars are a pet peeve of mine.

Good luck with your new brake set. I still won't take your word on how it performs though, but I promise I will keep my mouth shut.
