I'm fairly new and stumbled upon this thread. I've got a couple stories along the same lines, I have 3 four cylinder dirt racecars out back that I listed on craigslist for $500 each. They were built around 10 years ago but never raced in competition, the motors are loose but don't currently run. Anyways, I had all kinds of emails on them & this one clown asked me all kinds of questions and I gladly answered them. Then he asked if he could send me the rule book for his local track for me to look over & see if he could even race these cars at his local track, I said "no, if you want the car you come and look at it in person" & then he asked if I would get it running for him & I said "no, I will not poor money into the car & get it running just to have you back out on the deal" & then he asked if I would deliver it 300 miles away for $600 including the price of the car. After that I never responded to him and just pulled the ads off craigslist. I don't know if the people that were emailing me are just that ignorant or have nothing better to do than waste other peoples time. I mean I was only asking $500 per car, I can part them out for more than that but I thought if there's some kid out there that wants to get into racing I'll sell the car cheap and help them out.
I had some clown see one of my cars on racingjunk.com and he's been pestering me about the car for two weeks, we finally agreed on a price last week and he said he would be here today at 7pm to pickup the car. It is currently 9:45 PM and he has not shown up yet or answered his phone..............I swear, some people just need to grow up for christ sake.
