Clint,
I just feel a little used, that's all, I'm a big boy so I'll get over it. It's just seems to happen over and over, and it gets old. If I help someone get a Deuce, it's nice to see them keep it. I could flip more of these things than anyone if I wanted to, but I like to see guys get themselves a Deuce, not just make money on my leads and advice. I didn't venture as to why you are selling it, I trust you that it's for a good reason and that you didn't buy it with the initial intention of flipping it.

Clint,
I really could care less about all the BS going on between different groups of people involved in this hobby. My only motive was to let the people who may want a Deuce who dont know about or go to the other site to have a shot at it. I was not involved in the fiasco that went on with the Ebay thing and I dont have a opinion one way or the other about it. As for your Deuce, you bought the car and you have a right to do whatever you want with it, sell it, keep it or whatever, it is your car to do with as you please and nobody should second guess your actions with it. I dont see what the problem is with posting a reference to your car being for sale here, as you said you have a lot of friends on this board, all I was doing was making sure any interested parties knew about it. Whatever you may believe about any problems I have had on other boards, I can assure you that you have only heard one biased side of the story, but that has nothing to do with trying to do a seller and buyer a favor in bringing them together on the sale of a car. I have never had any disagreement with you so I really cant understand why you would question my motives other then the fact yhat you have possibly been fed a line of crap by some whiners. Motown

25 years ago, my brother-in-law was complaining that he needed "cheap" transportation to get to work. I had a 350 Honda in college, which I had parked in my Dad's garage for the winter in about 1970, where it stayed until he retired.
It was now in my garage, and I offered it to my brother-in-law for free. He took it, and was quite grateful. Well, about two weeks later, I was at his house, and learned that he had sold the bike. It was his, and he could do with it whatever he wanted. None-the-less, I was pissed; I felt he had used me. Clint, I am not here to second guess your motives, but Marlin, I feel your pain!! |

Last time I checked there was a buy low and sell high market right in the middle of this musclecar supercar world. What a person does with what there own property is up to them and no one else except the buyer. Recently I was offered a 1969 Yenko Camaro for $20K below market and I did the deal. Therefore, now a friend of mine can give his wifes older sister $50K to pay for her dying 13 year old daughters hospital bills and scripts. Were praying
for her recovery. Lets all try to be kinder to one another. Maxx |

Maxx, you are right about our free market society. Buy low and sell high is the cornerstone of our economy.
However, I think I'm hearing you say that you draw no distinction between what is "legal" and what is "socially acceptable." Maybe it's just me, but I believe there is a diffenrence between, "Hey Marlin, I love Deuces, and I'd really like to find one. Can you help?" and "Hey Marlin, I want to find a Deuce that I can buy cheap, and flip. Can you help?" If the former, and then he flips it, then I think Marlin has been wronged (not legally, but socially.) if the latter, and Marlin agrees to help, then, no foul. I do not know Clint, nor do I know his motives, so I am not casting dispersions. I do know Marlin, and his passion for the Hobby. I think he draws differences between a hobbiest and a profiteer. When someone "feels" wronged, shouts of "Free Market" don't change the way he feels. It may change his attitude towards helping other hobbiests in the future. And that, my friends, cannot be good for the hobby! |
