I texted him to give me his full name so I could get a bank check which I got first thing Monday.
I kept asking him all week when I could pick up the car and he said either no rush or he had to work.
Meanwhile, he relists the car for more money without telling me.
What Bulls%$t.

I did!! I had my cousin call him and he said the car was for sale. I have been to his house, so I know where he lives.
I asked him why the car was back on craigslist and he wouldn't answer me.

I'm done with that guy.
Actually, today I drove a black 2000 FRC, 6-speed. 84,000 miles.
Pretty nice.

Just saw the CL listing. How do you go from $7500 to $11500? There is a special place in hell for people like this. We may not be able to get even with them in this world, but I'm fairly confident that Someone will definitely do it in the next world.

BTW - looks like a lot of nice options on the Island. You'll find something soon. Happy hunting.
