I have a big problem with two people comming on this board acting like they don't know each other and posting like they did. THAT'S NOT HOYLE [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bs.gif[/img] jmo

I must have misunderstood. I thought Matt and Mike admitted to knowing the reserve price before bidding on their friend's car. That is what I was referring to as "shill bidding."

I think they did know the reserve, but that's no reason not to place your bid if you are really interested in the car. I agree with Kim though, that going on to a public board and talking up an item like that could cause problems.

Rumor on the street is that this car doesn't belong to Mike Carnahan. I think that the only way to know for sure is if a digital picture (not a scan) is posted on this site of the title showing who the owner really is.

Ebay refund all seller fees in the event of a Non Paying Bidder . Takes 10 days from the time you file the NPB alert ,which must be filed between 7 and 45 days after the listing ended , for the amount to be credited to your ebay account.

Hawaiian Jeff posted IP addresses as facts. Frank if you have a fact by all means post it in a polite way but "Rumor has it" is just Crap. I don't blame Members for being Mad at the knucklehead moves to lead us on but stick to known facts.

Lets move on, the car sounds fun and is at a reasonable price despite what has regretfully gone on.

I agree with Stu, here. There's no sense in letting a regretful situation escalate into a more regretful situation. Apparently, most have said their peace in forum posts and I suggest that further follow-up [if need be] be handled off the forum via PM/email. I've already noticed mention of this thread on a couple other sites, and it's becoming personal and uglier than it should be. Several people have a FEW facts, but probably NOBODY has ALL the facts. Let's stop this before someone is hurt. There ain't a used car on the planet worth that happening. There have been several board members mention that this sYc Forum is like a big family, that sometimes fights amongst themselves...I think that's true. How 'bout we label this one the "best of the week", but put the swords down now and move on. Apologies don't cost anything, and if some are owed...I would hope those people can settle their issues off line. I have PM'd both Jeff C. and Matt M. in the last day, or so, about my perception of this thread. If what I said in my PM's offended either of you...I apologize for the offense [but not what I said my perceptions are], sincerely. I hope nobody has been irreparably damaged.

And there's always the upside that y'all have to admit the dancing banana icon was pretty cool.

Charley what is <font color="brown">CRAP </font> is the fact that someone has been caught red handed shill bidding and it is justified and they are being defended. That is all the FACT that needs to be known!

Charley as a moderator of this site please don't support a double standard. If I or someone else of "less caliber" was caught shill bidding especially on a high dollar purchase like a car we would be hung upside down by our nuts! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bs.gif[/img]
