My "question" to him:
Isn't selling a car that's not yours kind of illegal? It's douchebags like you that make eBay an unsafe place. Well done dick

6 cylinder STi's rock! :roll: :bs:Check Ryan from CarPretty's garage...that's not what he is referring to.

This is how the convo went:
(01:51:04 PM) Sandra: hi
(01:51:20 PM) godfather11115: hi
(01:51:26 PM) Sandra: I saw the car you listed on eBay
(01:51:29 PM) Sandra: where is it located?
(01:51:40 PM) godfather11115: CHicago ,IL
(01:51:47 PM) Sandra: that's funny
(01:51:56 PM) Sandra: I didn't think Ryan from CarPrettyAutoSalon lived in Chicago IL
(01:52:25 PM) Sandra: next time you put a car up for sales, make sure you list pictures that are actually yours
(01:52:57 PM) Sandra: I hope you get kicked in the nuts with a steel toe boot
(01:52:57 PM) godfather11115 has signed off.

*I left his SN up because it is displayed publically on the eBay listing*

huh? I am lost. That car is not a 6cyl. Maybe it's the kid who bought Ryan's car who is trying to sell it now.

Dang so all of those pics are of someone elses car? Any way to notify Ebay about that because the car may still not be in that condition.

huh? I am lost. That car is not a 6cyl. Maybe it's the kid who bought Ryan's car who is trying to sell it now.Then why would he block me when I asked him about it? Instead of just telling me he bought it from Ryan and is trying to resell.

Sandra, Ryan doesn't have the car anymore. He sold it to someone else which I believe lives in Colorado.

I am wondering if I should bid and win the bid, then never pick it up so he just wasted $80 for the listing.

If they are copyrighted....you should set him up and get some moolah from him for copyright infringement.

I knew what he was referring to :) . I just wanted to point out that mistake as well. Though, admittedly it does pale in comparison to trying to sell someone elses ride.

I see that on autotrader all the time too. Someone should set one of these bastadges up. Or perhaps try to use and abuse the Fraud protection policy ebay has. I have never read it, but for autos its like 20 grand or something?

who would bid that high when the Buy it now is only $9500
TROLL
08-09-2006, 02:47 PM
because people still images offline all the time... thats why all of my photos now have the annoying copyright watermark over them... because of the assholes who steal the photos and reuse them without permission.

Probably just an accomplice bidding up the price. I hear people do that a lot- have their friends bid up an item so that the price goes higher than what they would get when the auction action (haha) starts to lessen.

That's one of them.

Selling a 7,500 mile STI for a buy it now of only 9500 is another :rofl:
