Star? Kit on Craigslist

Loading...

From hitandrun

Why are you accusing me of being a thief ? You're the only one between us that ever mentioned ads that are not yours. I'm not the one promoting or ridiculing craigslist ads or ebay auctions, you're the one. I can understand that you don't like it when people question your so-called "expert" vintage drum specialty but, don't accuse me of being a thief when you're the only one that ever comments on pricing.

You don't comment because you are watching and waiting, like a crocodile or a shark to run up on someone that is looking for info because they are ignorant of true values. You wait until someone comes here with a valuable kit they were given or inherited from a family member or they picked up at a garage sale. You are a snake, hiding in the grass, waiting for a free meal. I am visible and honest. I state my open and honest opinion, and yes, sometimes I do tell people to go and take a quick ride and snag something that they can get well below market.

However, those are usually kits that have been over priced and listed multiple times in local C/L ads in someones particular area. And the seller has listed a price, not like someone that comes ere looking for fair market value and then being scammed out of their precious cargo by the sharks hiding in the shallow water. I assume a lifeguards position. Good Luck trying to get past me.

You, on the other hand, are looking to do nothing more that take advantage of ignorance. That is why I tell people as quickly as possible to watch for instant PM messages from others that are not signed in, just watching and waiting. Whenever I see someone new, I PM them and warn them that they are being watched and could be taken advantage of very quickly if they are not careful. So sue me, I am here for the underdog, not the seasoned vet. And it ****es off more than just you. Hope you don't think it is just you that I am watching as there are others that hide in the bushes. Don't flatter yourself.

"Ignorance may be overcome through education. Stupidity, however, is a lifelong endeavor." So, educate me, I don't likes bein' ignant...

You know how I feel, John. Over the last couple of years, I have come to respect you as a valued member of this forum. I have learned more from you than I can possibly imagine! I thank you, sir. No one should have to contend with sarcastic plebiscites who degrade this assemblage! I applaud you for your gumption and fortitude! In other words, amigo, "Right phuckin' on!!!"
