2talltim Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) ...how pissed I am right now. I'm a man of my word and I expect others to be too. Had my TL sold, was even told I could have gotten a check this weekend, but opted to wait for cash on monday, I got the title noterized and everything, even told a guy yesterday that was interested that it was sold not sure if I saved his email or not, And the "buyer" backs out last min. Via text message. So needless to say its still for sale, ill be posting in the market later this morning when the fire in my eyes dies down.

Mojoe Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) Brother' date=' it's not sold until you have dollars in hand. I learned that lesson the hard way, too. Welcome to Hard Knocks Academy.[/quote']QFTBeing the good guy will get you burned, without a back up. I'm the same way, when someone says they are going to do something, that's what they are going to do. Too many people aren't like that, and care too little about who it affects. They lie to themselves, telling themselves they can make it happen when they probably didn't budget right(being nice about that). So why wouldn't they lie to you? Take them at their word until they follow through, but understand I have a back up, and let the back up know that's what they are.GLWS Edited August 7, 2012 by Mojoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclaimer Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) All I have in this world is my word and my balls.If I committed to the TL, I would've had the TL, but as a few others have already noted -- I learned all my lessons from the Hard Knock Academy pretty early in life, which is why I trust people as far as I can throw them.I am a proponent of internet vigilantism and the 'outing' of people as long as it's truthful. Though truth is muddled in with perceptions, so there are two sides to every story. Maybe the other guy would have a legit excuse as judged by the court of public opinion? Regardless, I do trust that when multiple people come to this site and recommend a product or service or have stories about how a company or individual has burned them, that it's probably the truth. Not an absolute, but probably. Therefore, for the sake of the integrity of the site, we need to know the entire story, the players on both sides, and have it settled on our forum. If anything, it'll be a record of history in dealings with the OP or the accused. Maybe the decision will be that both parties were at fault and are too stupid to deal with? They're not malicious, or liars, just dumb and irresponsible -- who knows. But, we need both sides, out in the open, to make that kind of judgment call.

Helmutt Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 This sucks Tim, I've been there with my last bike but had several contingency offers that were in line right behind the failure so it was still virtually painless.I know I've expressed interest in some stuff around here, but I always convey my intentions right away with how ready I and my money are. That way, the seller understands my position up front instead of last minute bailing - but like it's been said, that can/does happen sometimes. Maybe the prospective buyer's better half veto'd the purchase? Or some other drastic interference? Either way, I hope the next buyer actually buys.

shittygsxr Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) Ok I had to know who it was and if it is who I think it could be, I would tell you that you were a retard for thinking a FORMER Meth/coke addict that loves to drink was a man of his word.

Scruit Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 Beware - if that signed title gets into someone else's hands then you could have quit a mess to clean up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawlins87 Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 If it were me I'd out the guy. Ill think about buying purchases well in advance and when I go look at a bike I have cash. If its as described I'm buying. No bullshit just a handshake and cash. That being said, who was it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_Copeland Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 All I can add is that I never get any title work done until I have payment in full. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
