Sellilng a car on a lot and on ebay at the same time.
I was talking to a used car salesman who has very good reatings on ebay,
188 postive in the last year, 1 neutral (becuase the Check Engine light was on when the guy got the car). and one negative. He volunteered that they had soldit on the lot just about the same time the auction ended, and when the auction buyer wanted it, it was gone. He made light of it? Shouldn't lots refuse to sell a car if there is a bid for it above the reserve amount on ebay? Do they do that? Is he an outlier? Then I came across his rating on google, by the same person I have no doubt. She says fraud, fraud, fraud and says he took her deposit and didn't return it. I hve no tbouble believing he took the deposit because it says in his ads he wnats 500 right away, but I'd be really surprised if he kept it?? So I paged down to his negative ebay rating and she says "Won't return calls/mesgs for 3days. Says they sold the car after I won the bid. " Surely ebay would get her 500 back for her. Maybe those ratings were done before she got the money back. Of course for some people being out 500 even temporarily makes buying the next car hard to do. |

Of course for some people being > out 500 even temporarily makes buying the next car hard to do. I was in a guitar shop and tried out a Stratocaster that was on consignment and was mesmerized by it. I made an offer on it and the shop guy said he had to get an OK from the owner first. Later that day, I was checking out with the guitars were selling on eBay for and was surprised to find the same guitar listed. I put a bid on it and won. This was a deal that could have gone South real fast had it been two guys wanting this guitar. My point is that evidently people are dual channel selling merchandise these days. |

Are you implying that someone in a profession as honorable as that of used car salesman would somehow engage in a duplicitous practice or in some way be less than honest? Such a thing has never been before! --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |
