one I saw today... seller not responsible for items lost in transit, so if you don't want your stuff lost, pay extra for insurance.
To me, as a seller it is ALWAYS a good idea to insure your stuff you sent out. It is not on the buyer to pay your cost of doing business. If that extra dollar or two for insurance is going to break you, up the asking price. -or- be prepared to take a hit on having to give someone their money back because the item you shipped never arrived.
I just think it is tacky to ask people to make sure their money is protected when doing business with you. You should make sure you are protected so as to not lose your product/money.

I would rather throw away parts or give them to a kid at my local track, then sell anything to a bunch of babies who want something for nothing, and want it done thier way.
Attention sellers: Ignore this thread.

Don't sweat him Chilly, it's a good thread. He is obviously a seller who is probably guilty of hosing buyers and wants to continue to do so. All his response does is make me very suspicious of him if I were to consider buying anything he was selling. Thanks again for this thread Chilly and the mods for letting it stay.

How about the seller you wait 8 hours for a payapl info. He gets you his paypal info and I made payment right away. You make payment and 45 minutes later he refunds and sayes someone else paid 1st. Just happen today, true story. I think it getting worst instead of better. Now I have 50 bucks sitting on hold in paypal and it will take 3 days after they release it to get my money back, to get back into my account.

I put him on my IL a few weeks ago when i saw some of his replies in the feedback section, seems like i made a wise choice so far

That was entertaining...... ^_^
The way i see it, the more flexible a seller is the more chances he has to sell.
Albeit, same goes for the buyer.
Details and pictures sell.

This may have already been covered but I'm sick of the generic topic titles like, "Spring Cleaning" or "Garage sale" which give no indication as to what is being sold.
If you want to tell us about how you are cleaning out the garage and thus selling some stuff, great - save it for the body of the post. But put some description in the title, please! Even a key word: Nitro, electric, batteries, Revo, etc... tell me something. I don't even bother to look at topics like these anymore, its just too much work.

instead of a description of all the bling, mods, setup and how well it drives, how about why you are selling this "awesome" car with like 5 laps on it. if it is so good why get rid of it so soon? clear pictures of all parts included helps too instead of listing a bunch of part numbers. easier too. also quick response to pm's is good. use that $100 a month smartfone for something dude. also, if theres like 12 screws with "dremel work" on them cause you tried and failed to get them out, let someone know first.
