Re: Food For Thought....

We don't have to agree https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif ...but I feel if a broker isn't securing a contract in writing (a handshake or verbal agreement can be binding but you are setting yourself up for complications) then there is no commitment by the buyer. The deals that go down can be larger than buying a house. Look at the realestate folks and the protections put in place so deals don't go bad. I know car collectors don't want formal rules cast on them making transactions more expensive than they already are. I just think if a broker doesn't cover his butt before placing himself in the middle of a deal it's his fault if the deal goes south.

Unfortunately it may have come to that.
Used to be a mans word was his bond.
Well I guess we can see the character of the schiester who held up Motown. To me he deserves to be exposed. IMO

Re: Food For Thought....

Bel Air,
I agree and disagree with your last post. Naming the person in public I dont believe correct as it does not affect everyone here. However, it could and most likely will affest someone here in the future. As for it being a personal situation, that is not entirely correct. A personal problem is something such as you having an affair with my wife...... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif Anything that could affect so much as even one person in this hobby is not a personal problem, it is information that can either be accepted or not....take what you want and leave the rest behind. These type of people deal with more then just brokers, they also deal with individuals. As for two sides to every story, while that may be true with many things, that is certainly not the case here, if anything I have been very conservitive with my remarks. It certainly was not a problem with me or my business tactics as Tom Clary had posted that the Z convert was available and if anyone were interested to contact him to be forwarded to the owner.None of the cars that were interested have been bought or inquired about from this so called buyer. Nor has he come forward with any explanation. While I chose not to name this person publicaly from a character standpoint it seems in the past to have been a normal practice on this site, e.g., the Alberta Yenko Cloner, Dennis Tuttle, etc, etc,. As with any hobby or business, those involved should stick together to protect one another, we are all we have to protect one another. If any of the readers here are involved in a transaction or plan to be or would like facts for their own use, contact me by Email or PM if you wish to know the details or identity. By the way Bel Air, as hard as you may have tried, my wife is not leaving me for you. She cant stand cigar smoke! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: Food For Thought....

Well Mo....I think we put some controls in place around here to keep it more civil...The guys you mentioned actually owned the cars they were selling so that would be a different situation altogether.This is a personal business deal...just keep the crap offline...and please check and see if you can find a pair of old Reeboks around the house... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif

Re: Food For Thought....

Sure they are Bel Air, just like the Air in you name means your related to that NBA champ, whats his name...Air....Hmmm, what team was it you play for, Chicago BULL?

Re: Food For Thought....

Way too much laundry being hung-out on this post. Doesn't this kind of talk make getting together at Supercar Reunions difficult. I mean it is a small group,and you are bound to run across one another from time to time, so how do you keep the peace? I log on from time to time and this type of talk makes me uncomfortable about the club's appearance.

Re: Food For Thought....

I've met a few of these guys in person, and you have evry right to be concerned about their appearance. Especially Bel Air. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif

Re: Food For Thought....

Mas...I plan on being armed.... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif actually if you read a lot of this stuff...most all of it is in good spirit...some of it makes for a good read ! It stays pretty civil around here....some of the other sites get pretty foul..if it gets out of hand we put a foot on it....
