Dodgy car ??

Post by shineydave » Fri Aug 10, 2007 10:43 pm

http://www.vx220.org.uk/forums/index.ph ... opic=54660

some guy trying to sell his VXR220, there's some debate as to whether it's been damaged-repaired. it's well worth a read to understand the power of the 'tinternet in general and car forums specifically. be warned though, it's up to page 41 already.

considering it's number 16 of a run of 60 you'd think if it was a bumped one he could have chosen a more "suitable" place to sell it than the VX220 forum.

loved the way the mods gave him the chance to come clean then when he denied all knowledge posted the pics of it in it's "used" state. apparantly he'd been buying bits off the forum and fleabay to stitch it back together then advertised it as prestine and undamaged. the mods proved he was using the same PC as the one that had been used to buy the parts from the IP address
