Turns out FB marketplace doesn't let you keep the messages if you take the listings down. Shame, would have made a glorious thread. My favorite one was when some kid was like "tbh I'm in high school..."

Was that supposed to change anything for me? In fact, I should be teaching you a lesson, about the real world.

haha I remember when someone emailed and was like "Please, I need your car so I can get to school. I'm only in highschool." Linked him a picture of the 99 bus.

That guy yes. Hence I just told him I’ll push it off a cliff and didn’t respond back to him. But the other guy I had to respond because who knows. Either way, Craigslist sucks.

What are you selling? I remember i was trying to sell my 2014 Jaguar XFR-S in 2017, best offer i got was $42 grand for a car i paid over 100, grand for. I just said fuck it, modded it and kept it.

EndLeSS8 11-04-2019 09:14 AM

I'm selling my spare winters with wheels, people are insane.

"Can you sell me 1 wheel?"
"Can you sell me only the wheels?"
"Can you pay to remove your tires and only sell me the tires?"
etc etc

I just ignore it now

I feel ya.
I paid almost 200k for my mazzy back in 08 and now I’m only asking 53k. If I get 50k I think it’s reasonable but these assholes all want it for like 20-30k. Considering it only has 44,000kms on it and a full service record from Ferrari Maserati of Vancouver and not a single claim or accident, I think it’s an amazing deal already.

Fuck these pricks. Im just going to drive it till the wheels fall off.

2005 lexus sc430 project - $5000

do not know how legit this is but 5k only.
maybe good for somebody in the autobody industry.

I feel for you, man. Pretty much the exact same thing happened to a couple of years ago when I tried selling my old man's VW, and my mom's Mercedes.

At the time, we were offered $6k for trade in on the VW. Most ads on CL was listing the car for $9 - $10k. I listed mine at $7.5k since I wanted a quick sale. I've had offers ranging from anything between $4k - $6k. In fact, the guy that ended up buying it initially offered $6k after I told him the dealershp offered $6k trade in. I forgot how much I ended up selling the car to him for -- it was probably in the +/- $7k range. I know we ended up getting a touch more money from the private sale than if we had traded it in (after accounting for the trade in tax credit), but it would have been far less troublesome to just trade it in.

And then with my mom's Mercedes, we were offered $4k for trade in, I think? I think I listed it at $5k, and we received a $3.5k offer, and a $4.2k offer. We ended up just trading the car in.

(Afterwards, the dealership listed it at $9.7k.)

Honestly, selling cars privately is just a major PITA. So much BS.

This asshole message me yesterday;
hey still available?
Yes it is.
What's your best price ?
As stated on the ad.
Lawl, how about 40k?
You wanna come see it first before you offer ?
Nah I don't wanna waste my time.
So then why don't you wire me the money and you can buy the car sight unseen.
I'm not an idiot.
Then maybe you shouldn't offer on a car you haven't seen, idiot.

Next guy:
How about 20k? It's been listed for a while.
How about I push it off a fucking cliff instead ?
Relax bro, you'll never sell it anyways you might as well take what you can.

That's it !!! I give up. No more. Ain't selling shit.


snowfarmer 11-04-2019 12:07 PM

I PM'ed you...at least I think I did, I can't see it in my sent messages.

So long story short... a friend of mine sent me this before it went live. He knows this guy, and he owns a shady used car dealer.
We went to check it out yesterday because my friend always admired his car and was wanting to scoop it.

- Said engine only has 18,000 KM. Leaks from oil pan gasket, maybe RMS.
- Said the body has 95,000 KM
- Cluster said 18,000 KM
- Overspray everywhere
- Front Rad support bent and mangled
- Rear Rebar bent and has overspray
- All panel gaps, front and rear, were not even.
- He was racing in Port Moody, spun out on Snake Hill, hit a curb and the construction pylons on the curb dented the door. Saw scuffs on the LCA's and wheels were curbed.
- Top wouldn't open

edit: The heartbreaking part about this is, my friend really trusted this guy as a friend and he tried to cover up all of these issues. Telling me the KM's are not rolled back etc... it was so cringe to talk to him and hear him lying through his teeth.

^ have to remove wing to pass VI?
That's pretty cheap asking price. My guess is that his stereo/GPS/sub setup probably cost more than half of asking price of car.

trollface 11-05-2019 06:20 AM

Those subs are worth like a basket of Dim Sum.

whitev70r 11-05-2019 07:24 AM

^ just right for a car like that. Don't think you want subs that are worth caviar in that vehicle.

whitev70r 11-05-2019 07:30 AM

2007 Audi A3, 189K, DSG, $3990. Timing belt , water pump , transmission fluid , brakes and rear rotors recently changed. Seller could use some help with taking pics but ... decent deal for a car with this mileage and maintenance.

I think it was intentional as to not to show the license plate, but it sure was a lazy and terrible way to do so.
