Am i an ass for doing this

- Tue Sep 18, 2012 3:30 pm #315930 I know the idiot kid who did this and i called him out on it because i didnt have a clear conscience with the ads as i know what has happened and such.

just so those know to also take note that the coupe i call shit is because its been beat to fuck and he snapped the rear bolt in the bushing for the lower control arm so yea.....lets just say not worth what hes asking at all

I know since he told me he paid
1400- for the coupe
and 150 for the crx

http://binghamton.craigslist.org/pts/3279680548.html

So searching through craigslist and to my amazement your trying to rip someone off.....Ive found your ads posted below for everyone to see so that they wont buy your pile of crap. 500$ thats a huge rip off that car is barely worth that of scrap value. and judging by the pictures it will need at least 3-4k worth of work to look decent rust free well its definitely not bondo free thats for sure. your missing hard to find parts not to mention that sunroof of yours looks shotty as ever how bad dose it leak when it rains? all i have to do is look at your other ads and your prices are all over the board i dont know what your smoking but obviously its giving you some hallucination that the cars you own are better then what they really are.
I truely hope no one gets ripped off by you because obviously you didnt pay 500 for the car nor did you pay 300 which is in another ad im sure you bought if for scrap value like 150$ or so and deemed it was easy to make money off of. People like you make the honda community look bad asking alot for your junk and trying to rip someone off....Well good luck selling i hope your stuck with your money pits

Original ad im referring to where asking price is 500$
http://binghamton.craigslist.org/pts/3270045144.html

Ad i found for 300$ same contact number etc
http://binghamton.craigslist.org/cto/3268274408.html

Another ad i found containing both a crx and a high mileage rusty as heck civic coupe same number etc.... asking 2000
http://binghamton.craigslist.org/cto/3276464759.html

A ad for the rusty coupe asking 1400 so in the above ad he wants 600$ for the crx
http://binghamton.craigslist.org/cto/3274306218.html

Hopefully those interested see this and stay away from his overpriced junk..


So am i so wrong for doing this i saw all this and wanted to let people know just in case they where thinking about it what to look out for and such.....people like him do give us in the honda community a bad name he knows what hes doing too.

1. that is not a rolling shell. Looks like there is no front suspension at all.
2. that is definitely not a clean shell, look at all the bondo and rust!
3. It is a bare shell, missing lights & body parts.

Because the rockers are pretty well shot hidden under the plastic panel, theres bubble rust which is definitely on the other side and can be seen through the trunk. Also dents galore. and not to mention the reason the crx has no front suspension is because he took the front coil overs ebay and threw them on the coupe but he snapped the bolt in the rear control arm on his coupe so he didnt do the rear as well.....the ad dosent mention any of the big issues so thats why the pictures make it look alot better then it is

may of been a waste of time but i was bored as its been raining all day today and was trying to prolong my lazyness. lol it took me maybe 5mins to do all that wish it took me longer as now i have to actually do something

Agreed. I dont think it makes you a dick, but it is a waste of your breath/energy/time or even thought. Doesn't matter if its crap, its his and He can price it how he wants. If someone is stupid enough to buy this shit then thats their bad.

You basically slapped a "do not drink" warning label on a bottle of bleach...
