You would have been better off leaving the pricing nonsense out of your first post. It reeked of a dick move and didn't serve any real purpose.

what was so non-sensical about the pricing comments he made in his original post? is it impossible that he found said prices? as he/she states, there's a reason for each (if i'm not mistaken). hell, maybe the information can be considered useful.

regardless, who gives an f......everyone is privy to the same market information...it's not like it's well guarded. unbelievable how sensitive some folks are when it comes to this stuff.

don't like the bid? move on.

simple.

I could care less, just pointing out why he got such a response.
not even close pal.....i care nothing about you....but your and other's comments are caustic....incendiary.....wanting to create drama where it's not needed. let's say his prices were low....who the fk cares? don't like his bid? move the fk on. but to go out and basically label him as a "dick" as you did is uncalled for.

prices....car prices.....whether made up or not....get a grip some of you. if you cared less you wouldn't have said what you did.

as for the "feel free to go **** yourself" part.....it's really not necessary.

Way to massively overreact to a simple two sentence post. You might want to try a laxative.

Now this thread is entertaining. Much better than people's car names or which color is the fastest.

Amazing what the moderators allow to get by now. Oh well.

Here's what I don't like about this entire post. Riley's question (either knowingly or unknowingly) allows non Rennlist Members to sell a car. That's against forum rules (to sell stuff without being a paid member).

It appears your issue is very small compared to others' issue with Riley.

Porsches are high depreciation cars. I suppose, Riley quoting some of the prices of cars he found on line is upsetting to some of you. Sometimes we don't want to know how bad an investment these cars can be.

Why are you shooting the messenger? Maybe your cars are nicer and better equipped than the ones the OP quoted. And again, maybe not!

Are you calling me small? I have issues with that!

It's the internet. I try not to have too many issues. I'm really hoping this thread picks up this morning.

never thought about that, i've never been a non member but thought the parts marketplace, and vehicle marketplace were open to all participants of RL, just the for sale ad's and WTB sections were for RL members only (listed under RL member forums)

the only purpose of my post was that a lot of people just trade a car to dealer or list locally/consignment versus listing on RL.. so was trying to see who might be thinking of selling their car (i had already looked at 5 pages of classifieds prior to this post and PM'd members)

i just directly quoted what i saw on cars.com listings...



never said once i would offer someone 50k for their 2012... and my "quoted prices" were vehicles under 30k miles as there are some even cheaper vehicles with higher miles.

Please, just get real for a moment. You cherry picked the absolute low end of the range of cars out there and then asked if 'anyone would like to sell you theirs at a similar market price'. There are about 400 2014 911's for sale on Cars.com, about 20 of which are in the range you mentioned.

Same with your 'untitled '15s for $75-80k' comment. There are 125 new '15s on AutoTrader right now and exactly zero are in that range. Not even close.

Not that big a deal because any idiot can see what you were trying to do. Just surprised that you're shocked by the reaction you got.
