Thread: Hard top for $500 on CL

  1. #1

    Default Hard top for $500 on CL

    http://dallas.craigslist.org/pts/616051320.html

    I have nothing to do with that ad - other than I just paid a lot more than that for a hard top this weekend

    At least the one I got matches my car already.

    Hrmm anyone have a picture of this color black? Probably wouldn't go well with Brilliant black I imagine.

    EDIT: n/m looks to be a really dark red/merlot color.

    It's black cherry mica - which is more of a dark burgundy metallic color. I think it would look pretty bad on a brilliant black car.

    Exactly! I don't want the top, I just need a nice place to prop it up and something to keep the big chunks off of it... Right now it's sitting in a storage unit getting rat shit and dust all over it.

    Anyhow, I haven't heard back from the guy, so I'm guessing it's already gone... I mean, really... $500???

    You should have gone ahead and played her game with her, by offering $1200, but that you can't pick it up till Thursday...

    Yeah and then never show up...

    She obviously did not know the market but shame on her for promising it to you then selling it out from under BAM.

    People and their "word" does not seem to mean much these days.

    In my opinion it is a mark on a persons character to promise something and then change their mind.

    I've had a number of Craigslist items get yanked out from under me after I thought it was sold. The seller's excuse is usually something like "I've been burned by folks saying they were going to come pick it up and never showing".

    Nevermind that sellers could tell you that it's not sold until they're paid. And first come, first served.

    Now, if I want it I let them know I'm on my way with cash.

    Considering the significance of today's date, I think several of us should make her an offer.
