Holy ****, I expected to get flamed about not having pics, not genuine responses for sales 
I answered the pm's of those people who were first (not all of them are on this page), I go by the FIRST PM that I got about the item and make sure it came in BEFORE the 1st dibs that came up on the posting, so I'm very fair fyi. If a buyer falls through, it goes to the next nearest time stamped posting or pm, whichever comes first.

Hey all, been trying to get over this night shift ****, sleeping all day and missing all your posts and pm's, sorry about that. So far, nothing is sold, I had a friend here interested, and another that paid but the Paypal funds were put on hold, so now I have to go back through the list of pm's and see who is first again! Argh!

At this time, the strut braces and exhaust have dibs by a serious buyer, I've pm'ed the next person for the coilovers, and I'm waiting on the Paypal hold dilemma for the intake and ram together, and am still deciding on shipping the rear lip so to those that have pm'd me, once I decide you will know.
Geez! I still haven't put pics up!!!! Damn it...

I have noticed this a lot here. I am new to the 8 and the forum (well being active in it) and this continually happens here. It's very frustrating if your looking to buy something. COMMUNICATION is key to selling something. If you are not sure you want to sell something, state that. Also have some prices ready for shipping if you are willing to ship. All you need is the weight and/or size of the package and can easily get a quote. Make it easy for everyone, because this is a problem across this board, not just in this thread.

thats what gets me....I spent a few days trying to get these parts and give the seller payment and such all to find out the he realized shipping to Canada cost more and didn't want to make arrangements to do the shipping. It happens a lot on this board and even more so when trying to get parts into canada......which I have trouble understanding??? if the buyer is willing to cover the difference in shipping, how much more difficult is it to send it to Canada as opposed to the other side of the US....the only person that will pick up extra charges ( as long as shipping is added to the cost of the part ) is the person who is buying???? I am going to spend the money and buy everything new.....I am tired of wasting my time.

Tony says, RX8s are GREAT
dude, i cant believe you told me you will put the intake up for sale again only because frigging paypal security stepped in and did there job........ i bought your intake and ram with no pics, on good faith, and it pisses me off this happens to me... in your pm to me you said the rb intake is for grabs again until paypal is situated.. and you mentioned that i better get on it... man.. its not my fault what happened.
oh and i wanted to add that i paid you 15 extra to cover paypal fees, im sure if you look at all the stuff i have recently bought you will understand why paypal stepped in..
now, i dont want to list you as a bad seller, but i will, and you are ruining your own reputation..
i am pissed off because many of us here waited days to hear from you, but when paypal security steps in, you dont give us the same opportunity,
you being able to sell here is a privilege so dont screw it up... yes im pissed because this issue is not my fault.......
i cant believe you put this back up for sale/in your pm to me thats what you said to me/ the money has already been deducted out of my bank account..
and im putting this out there so everyone will make sure this does not happen to them..
now because paypal is going to release the funds to everyone i made payments to.. its a matter of days
so you have 2 options...
1. you can hold our agreement and wait for paypal security to finish there investigation...
(which happens when you randomly spend over 2k, to random emails)
2. you can sell to someone else.. and i will list you as a bad seller, i will have have to fill out forms with paypal and my bank on what happened.. and your name will be associated on all this
my recommendation to you is to keep your word
sorry if i pissed you off, but i already paid you, the funds came outta my bank, its a paypal security issue.
edit: edit to say sorry for my first impulse in flipping out, i want to resolve this and keep both our names clean.. sorry, i hope we will keep this deal and stand by our word.. and i put this again for everyone to see that i recognize that the seller may have a situation of his own and that i recognize that i over reacted, i am not deleting this because i dont want anyone to think i am trying to..... sweep anything under the carpet other than a bad day..
ben
edit again.. wow i sound like such an azz.. everyone who read what i put.. dont over react like i did
