Re: Needing reassurance on purchase
"Contacting the seller: I talked to the seller the day the car arrived and told him of my disappointment with the car. Even the truck driver that delivered the car said, "This is a rough car!".
I have bought and sold cars,sight unseen,with sYc members and have had very pleasant experiences.When looking at ebay auctions one of the first things I look for(aside from hide and seek)is how candid the seller is.If he goes into detail about the faults and to a degree,understates the cars condition that tends to score high on my INTEGRITY meter.
The description of the car was pure babe in the woods fare,but clearly it should have been touched prior.That being said not everyone has the resources to fly all over inspecting cars.By the time you pay for air fare,rental,hotel etc that adds to the amount invested in the car(Yeah,a lot less than being a bagholder of bondo)but let's face it we all have rolled the dice at one time and hoped it would be boxcars not snake eyes.I would never purchase a collector car from "dealer" because rule #1 is never fall in love with the merchandise,and that can have ramifications with the code of ethics sometimes.JMHO
