Well the young kid showed up to buy his trailer and he told him "NO" :evil: he was dealing with me. He wanted me to come get it this past saturday. :lol: So he called me Friday nite to confirm "WE" had a deal. :P So saturday morning at 8;30am he called again to confirm i was coming. I drove 4 1/2 hrs. to Jascksonville,Fla and round trip 165.00 gas for him to tell me no deal. He said my bike frame had been cut. :? Well i told him that it was a muffler bracket and "HADN'T" been cut . My friend who went with me brother owns the Kawasaki and Suzuki dealership told him it was a bracket also. But "NO" he had many :?: bikes an frame cut . So when deal fell , i ask for half gas money and he said up my azz. :twisted: When we got back we pull up the bike on PC and confirm frame had "NOT" been cut and it was a muffler bracket. He screwed the guy before me on trailer sell(for 5000.00) no . sell , then told me 7000.00. Con artist watch your self. It is a "VEND TRAILER :shock: and NOT A TRUE CAR TRAILER.-------BEWARE -------- :twisted:
I aaume you had a "deal" based on the approval of all items in the trade. Upon the inspection of everything, you had a problem with the style of the trailer & he did not approve of the condition of the frame on your bike. You indicated the seller held the trailer & declined a potential sale while he waited for you. Then you both parted ways & there was no deal. That seems like it does not necessarily make the seller a con-artist... but someone who declined on the deal based on the condition he saw of your bike. He sounds like he has been burned before with bad frames & did not want to take the chance again. This does not make him dishonest... just my opinion. Scooter
