Default Have you ever..

Run into a forum member that just comes across as a ? I posted that I wanted to buy a 2.5" manifold and got a response from a member. I asked a simple question and was rudely insulted. Not that I would buy from this individual now but thought I'd warn my corvette brothern... I started looking back at the posts the individual has made since joining 1-8-2005 and it's all and only for posting parts for sale. This seems like Vendor type of status... Maybe a mod will look into this an maybe others have had a similar bad experience with this

I don't normally call someone out but this guy was down right rude. I would hate to see one of my friends here on the board be taken by this guy. I don't mind people trying to make a buck but this is a free board. He is just using the board to make money and giving nothing back.... Dave...

He emailed some pics of parts that he had. No price on them. I emailed him back and never got a response. Seems like someone else said that it is better to call him. But, email works the best for me.

I don't think I would want to call him, if he is that rude. I'll spend my money with someone that appreciates my business.
