Full Moon? Ebay ads are a riot this week.

This seller is someone I can learn from. I should ask him some of those clueless questions that people ask me, Juat to hear his response.
"will you take my "slamed" Honda and some cash in trade?" " Has the BELTS been changed recently?" "I am a rich DR. in Zimbabwae will you take a cashies's check for more than the amount and you can just pay me back the diffrence?"

We should ask him about the sagging back end...any takers

Also, something about it not being a real Ferrari because all Ferraris are red

Maybe your data is wrong? Why would someone go from red to maronne? haha.....

 

..and a black rear bumper? Thought the 412s had color-keyed bumpers.

 

Kraig,

As far as I can tell, the bumper is just as brown as the rest of the car.

Maybe you should ask the seller for some extra pictures

Q: You sound like a real prick. If someone asks you for pictures of a car you are tryig to sell, effing well take them. Why would you bother to sell such a "precious" example without really trying to sell it? I've been looking for a good 412 for years, butyou don't seem like the type of person I'd want to give the time of day to... Dec-03-07

A: Dear Teeny Weene, if someone is SERIOUS about my car they initiate conversation by phone or email, at that point I send pics of car which are really only a guide.Then as per ebay they bid on said car.if my price is met, then we get into the nitty gritty with inspections and the like.If you could read you will see that i say the car NEEDS NOTHING.If upon inspection that is found not to be true then you or the intended buyer may berate me.By the way if you have been looking for a good 412 for years you have not been looking to hard ,because there are some very fine examples out there...so really im not looking to get the TIME OF DAY from you ,i want your MONEY for my car.....so go back on the porch and let the big dogs play.Again real buyers come to the forefront,little doggies like you collect pictures. And again because you still dont get it Winning Bid or not there is no legal obligation to BUY my car if you find something wrong with it or even if its as i said you can still walk away.


Q: Hi, In the picture, your car seems to be sitting quite low in the rear. I there a reason for this? Thanks. Dec-03-07

A: yes a 412 has a hydraulic shock system,when the car is started up it goes , when its been idle for a while it bleeds out.

Another yoyo who doesn't have a clue about selling a car on ebay.

$35K starting for a 412, and no pics on top of that...??

It's zero-bidder car.

 

Scott,

Not all the ads are there for us to contemplate purchases. Some are there purely for our entertainment

Regards,

Art S.

 

Agreed.

 

And they are definitely entertaining!

 

This is too funny.

However, I do feel the pain of the seller. He may just be fed up as I am. I have been listing cars on ebay since 2001. It has not been an easy ride. You get the stupidest people asking the stupidest questions. One of these days I think i will be giving up on ebay at least for car sales anyways...

 

I feel his pain. When I had my 328 listed on ebay I had a ton of questions and requests for more pics, usually from the same people over and over again. I answered each email with a request for them to call me and gave them my phone number. Not a one called. But they were all "serious" about buying the car. If I am serious about buying something for over $35K I would take the time to pick up the phone. I finally gave up and just have a ad buried somewhere on Ferrariads. I may just end up keeping it to give to my son in 20 years since he is named Enzo and was born March 28 (328) kinda cool.
