it wasn't that locals had first dibs, i responded to all PM's, and the first person to pay for the parts got them. i've been on here for years and haven't been shady to anyone. i've been responding to everyone as soon as I get PM's from them.

parts left are:
- rims & tires
- body kit
thanks everyone for working with me, tons of PM's came in. sorry if i pissed anyone off, but i'm pretty sure my reputation and years on this forum should speak for me as well, i'm not ripping anyone off and not trying to scam anyone. first person paying gets dibs, that's how i've always done things. anyway, thanks for looking!!

as far as a vouch, i've been a member here for over 10 years, i had feedback from past sales which allowed me to sell without a vouch, and i've been to many shows and events and never done anyone wrong. i've been a car show judge and participant for that time as well and know plenty of people in the industry who can "vouch" for me all day long. as far as who gets what items, i had over 80 PM's, and i responded and gave everyone the same oportunities, and if someone else responded to me and paid before you, then they got the parts. i had many people tell me they wanted something and had paypal ready, then flaked when it came time to pay, so i'm not, and doubt annyone else would, going to sit here and wait for someone to decide what they want, when i have another customer ready and willing to pay on the spot. i'm sorry that some of you didn't get the parts you wanted, but the bottom line is someone else responded and completed the deal before you. lastly, not all parts were sold local, the brakes and hood are being shipped, and so is the body kit, so give the locals thing a rest.

I hate to keep coming to your thread and keep bringing it up but you said you gave everyone equal opportunity and I feel as if I didn't. I got your pm about the paying for the part to hold it and paying for shipping later when you "get back from out of town" but when I responded at my earliest. I never gotten a paypal address to send the funds to. So how can I beat anyone without a payment address? On top of that, you finally responded to me later on that evening saying it was sold to a local? I thought you were out of town? I'm not saying someone could have met up with the person for you but couldn't that someone ship it for you also? I'm sorry for clustering up your thread but it just seems like everyone else didn't get the "equal opportunity" you mentioned.
[QUOTE=sakataj;6326119]ACTUALLY u being here for OVER 10 years matter u DONT according to the CL rules qualify to sell high dollar items unless your two feedbacks give it to you cause your post count sure doesnt, but im not arguing your validity (btw u being a judge doesnt really qualify for much man, sorry) yeah its cool....i pmed u like immediately ready to send a deposit to guarantee it. ONLY pm were these - as i said i wanted to make a payment to ensure these were mine but then like 3 hours later i got this - so how can you say we flaked. i wasnt even given the chance to make a payment,i had no paypal info or address,shipping costs or anything....it seems like you played the ebay game here and NOT just with me, also with toyotero,denut-l,and vnguyen850 - they didnt vinh and like him im not trying to clutter your thread either, i wont be back and no im not crying cause i didnt get them either, this sale just wasnt on the level it seems
Maybe I wasn't detailed enough in my words. What I meant, was the combination of my years of being on this forum, my years of judging nation wide import shows (meaning the contacts in the industry that know me well, which does count for something), and my dealings with other CL members on a personal lever and buying/selling can speak for me. As far as high dollar items, the only high dollar items i have are the wheels, and nobody asked about the wheels yet. There's no vouch needed on the other parts. Thread posting count just means you've got more spare time to be on line than I do. As far as timing, again, i'm not on line 24/7, I was out of town on business and just because one person responds to me, doesn't mean I get it right away. I dealt with everyone the exact same way, and all it came down to was who was able to get back to me and make arrangements. You may have responded right away, as did 35 other people, and i responded to them all in order, as soon as I could get back on line. Maybe someone else was on line at the same time as me, when you were NOT, and therefore was able to respond to me and make the final arrangements sooner. In regards to flaking, I didn't mention any names of WHO flaked, so please don't take offense to it, because if it was you, I would have said it was you. Lastly (to you at least) I didn't play any games, ebay or otherwise, and you can ask the people that bought the parts, they paid the advertised prices and not a penny more.
Thank you!!! I wish I had 40 more sets of these parts so I could make everyone happy, but I don't.
