Re: Not a Baldwin Car, Not for Sale
 

You are certainly entitled to your opinion on how others should buy/sell cars, but the only ones that really matter are those directly involved. I like the geezer method just as much as the next guy, but I've seen to many handshakes conveniently forgotten when someone else shows up with more green. So, in this 'modern' day, it's best to get in writing.

As for the Watson Deuce, there were a lot of callers, there was no deal until the cash changed hands. If the seller decides to increase his price, and there is nothing legally preventing him from doing so, then there is no recourse. You're a 'JD', so you already know about that stuff [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]

Marlin,
Unfortunetly what you say is true, from a legal standpoint a contract is the best method, but a verbal agreement is still an enforcable one, even though more difficult. Yes, I do know about this stuff, but lets excercise caution in that regard, Ok? Even with contracts it becomes difficult when conducting transactions across state lines are more difficult to enforce due to jurisdictional issues.

Re: Not a Baldwin Car, Not for Sale
 

LV Camaro-Steve, haven't documented it yet. The "Not a Baldwin Car, Not for sale" heading is sticking with my heading from the previous post (the now infamous yo-yo post) I made in Southern Calif. I was trying to keep the callers away by informing them that I was indeed buying it, "so it's not for sale" and not to be in a frenzy calling because it is not documented as a "Baldwin Car" which was yet to be done. It does look confusing as looking back up this thread I can see it depends on whether a person has clicked on a response to the original heading, or whether clicked on my changed heading as they transpire on down this thread.

But, I just got home yesterday, and haven't really left my computer, trying to represent myself over this car deal. I have not talked to Joel or communicated with him in months. I will not do so until I truly get the car in my possession. I've paid $4,500 and balance of $4,500 which I will wire when the parts of the car that are scattered over 3 different locations are gathered up, motor set in the engine compartment, and ready for shipment.

I agree, you should exercise caution when discussing Contract Law, the UCC is not to be taken lightly.

Re: Not a Baldwin Car, Not for Sale
 

Gotcha!

I hear rumor that you're actually the "yo-yo". LOL! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif[/img]

BTW...I haven't heard from the new "forum cops" about this thread, as yet. Now that Marlin jumped in...we may be getting close to the admonishment zone. This may become the benchmark for future shock-awe-bash thread posts.

Seems like laundry day for the dirty hamper comes around every couple weeks, or so. Even as quickly as you moved on this Nova, you're a big, slow moving target. Jude, Shor, Charley, et al. just saw the need and opportunity to clarify their position on this topic, then reflect on past experiences as an example of their innocent role here.

In the spirit of peace/harmony on the forum...I'll send my trailer to pick up this "Not Baldwin" and thereby remove the discomfort you're feeling. You should have the check tomorrow [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img].

Re: Baldwin Car For Sale
 

Closing this one folks. Seems that even after the sign agreement was posted and the thread started to go up-hill instead of down this morning it is headed south again. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img] If anyone has issues with others use other ways (I.E. phone, E-mail ETC.) If Dustin would like to post a reply he or his Girlfriend will have to contact one of the ADMIN or Moderators to open the thread for them to do so and then it will be closed agian after that repley is posted.

Reply from Dustin and company: I moved it after I closed the thread and saw he posted a reply that started a new thread.

Alright guys,
I understand that there has been some name calling and bitterness being put around on this website about Kevin and that he forced us to sell to him. It's crazy that I even have to do this because some people can not act like adults.
Listen, THE CAR HAS BEEN SOLD! The final agreement was made under confidentiality, between Dustin, his dad and Kevin.
WE DID NOT GET SCREWED OVER!
But thanks for looking out for us!
Jen and Dustin
