I have been gone a long time but some may remember me from bstuff as joshhadacaritsacorsy. lol I dont have time for this car anymore and prety much lost all interest towards it. Nothing is wrong with it other than it other than it can use tires and a/c works for about 4 months before it all leaks out and its a northern car. price is negotiable. id like 3 grand. Has 2003 3400, cam heads, too much to list, 5 spd. fidanza, poly mounts, you name it, i nerded out on this bastard years ago and it still runs and drives like a champ.

Please re-write this thread to include information requested in the Car sale rules. It will help bring interest to the sale.

Looks to me all he is missing, per the rules, is the VIN (which i wouldn't give either unless requested) and a pic which he has until 11:22 on 10/27....

He doesn't even say what kind of car it is Ron. Let alone what year. I'm assuming it's a Corsica, based on his bstuff username.

So other than stating he has something for sale and a price, he is missing EVERYTHING.

Unless it's in really good condition 3 grand might be hard to get for it. I'm no expert, but typically these types of cars get parted out for more money. Not to kill your hopes and dreams..

So how was he missing EVERYTHING Chad??? Lets pick this apart by rule line number shall we???

1) DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS - NO EXCEPTIONS:
A. Location of item must be listed in your title. Please post the state or province, country, etc where your vehicle is located. - looks like he covered that...

B. Vehicle Identification Number must be listed in your posting. Please list your vehicle's VIN so it's available for checking against registry reporting systems, i.e., CarFax, AutoCheck, etc. Listing false or fabricated VINs for your vehicle is grounds for banning from the site for fraudulent activity. - doesn't have that...which i stated in my reply.

C. Picture/s of the listed item must be included within 24-hours of thread posting. Within 24-hours of posting your thread, you must upload actual pictures of the vehicle you are selling in the current, sellable condition to your for sale thread. You may also provide a link to your vehicle's off-site pictures or even a link to pictures to your vehicle for sale on eBay, provided you have pictures loaded on the site. A link in lieu of the 24-hour posting requirement will result in the thread being closed. Misrepresentation of an item is unacceptable and offenders may be permanently banned. - seller still has time for this...

D. Post a reasonable price. We are not eBay, nor an auction site, so "make an offer" is not acceptable. Reasonable price means that you have done some research and identified a fair price-point that will actually sell. Requesting "offers" without a reasonable starting point is essentially the same as requesting members to "bid" on your item(s). Listing intentional over-inflated pricing is also NOT allowed and will be subject to closure or infractions. - seems he did this as well. Of course your 'reasonable' may be different than mine...

2) LISTING REQUIREMENTS - NO EXCEPTIONS
A. Retain all original post information - don't delete anything. Member-sellers are required to retain all original post materials, e.g., listing information, photos, price(s), etc., if/when the vehicle is no longer available for sale. This "No Editing Out" of for-sale information policy protects both the buyer and seller and gives other members a price-point to use in establishing the potential market value of their vehicle(s). - hasn't seemed to have done this...

B. Post vehicles that are ready to sell. Otherwise, please make sure you let potential buyers know when the vehicle will be available. - seller stated he is ready to sell this vehicle.

3) POST FINAL SALE INFORMATION - N/A

So tell me Chad...EVERYTHING??? The rules, albeit good intentioned, are incomplete and, if followed to the letter, seems to be more misleading than the posts that brought the rules to fruition!!!

Really... this is why I tried to put rules in place to keep THIS out of the thread. Can't you guys keep this stuff to PM?

I give up.

I'm not talking about the for sale rules. Who tries to sell a car an then doesn't even say what KIND of car it is.
