Default BLACKLIST AF USER "KAIBONG"

He's selling a 2003 A4 1.8T...black on black, manual with 39K on it. I travelled to L.A. this past weekend from Denver and he cost me about $500 in travels after we'd talked for several weeks on the phone about the transaction and came to an agreement for me to fly out and purchase the car. Here is my response to his post...please don't deal with him, it was the most unprofessional deal I've ever come across:



__________________________________________________ ____
DON'T DEAL WITH THIS SELLER. I got him down to $18,000...and FLEW ALL THE WAY FROM CO TO L.A. with a bank cashier's check in hand this past weekend (5/4/07) and he broke our agreement.

He WOULDNT accept the check. It HAD to be cash IMMEDIATELY...which translated to me having to have a bank account at Bank of America, and $18,000 cash in that specific bank account. His bank said they had to put a hold on the cashiers check until it cleared (every bank does this), and he refused the sale. I paid $500 in all after talking to him on the phone for almost three weeks about the transaction, before we agreed for me to purchase a flight and fly out.

So this past weekend I FLEW TO L.A. only to have him turn the sale down after we both agreed I would have to have a cashier's check made in his name, for the exact amount. I had my money in place and everything...spent hours trying to persuade him that my check was good (even after we called the bank to verify that it was a legitimate check with no holds on it). We spent three hours INSIDE his own bank with an employee so that the account manager could make him understand that a cashier's check is GUARANTEED cash.

Jesus, DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS GUY, he doesn't understand the concept of how an automobile transaction goes through.

CALL ME IF YOU HAVE FURTHER QUESTIONS. He's a scam, and a waste of your time. I WASTED $500 going to L.A. because he sounded legit on the phone...I want to spare all of you the trouble...just find a different car this one's not worth it. I want to take him to small claims court over what I had to pay to get out there because he changed the agreement....

what an idiot. anyone who has the mental capacity to earn enough money that they own an audi, should know that a cashier's cheque is GUARANTEED CASH. it even says on the damn things that they are guranteed cash, at least it does on the ones my bank issues.

what a retard.

good luck in small claims court, make sure you ask for enough to cover your legal fees, and a little bit more on top for your trouble.
