1981 Blue Bird Wanderlodge back on eBay
bubblerboy64,
Don't you have something else to do than go ON AND ON AND ON? This forum is for helping WANDERLODGE OWNERS with issues they have with their coaches. Jim Riordan 88 WBWL XXV Stuart, Fl. bubblerboy64 I think communication is the issue here. I have purchased three cars and one motorcycle on eBay. Before I bid I informed the seller that my bid if it was the winning bid had terms attached. The seller then can reject the bid based on those terms or accept it. Would a fellow bid on a $20,000 motor home or take a buy it now without terms? I guess its possible but unlikely. I do agree that if the deal was broken solely do to the reasons stated Tom has every reason to be unhappy. But what's he going to do? Forget it and move on which seems to be exactly what is happening. JEH > > Something is backwards here! > I think all of Howard's suggestions should happen. Deposits, contract execution and close the deal. After all the purchaser willfully made a choice and in doing so took the mans asset off the market for a period of time without compensation. Can I buy your home that way? Let me hold it for awhile. Just because it happens on Ebay in violation of contract law does not make it right. > The argument of misrepresentation is subjective. The last time I checked, Caveat Emptor has nothing to do with the seller. I imagine any asset for sale on Ebay or anywhere else is available for pre- purchase inspection by the potential purchaser or his/her agent prior bidding and/or negotiating. > So what does long distance travel have to do with the seller, his price or anything else? If the purchaser wants the item put the travel costs in the basis of the motorhome. If you don't purchase that one summarize all the costs of looking for one and put that into the price of the one you ultimately purchase. That is part of the cost of purchasing one. Apparantly, it is less painful to run all over creation looking for a "deal" because those costs are expended over a period of time rather than plunking down real money for a quality coach that some good BB person sweat blood on. 2 cents more. > > Leroy Eckert > 1990 WB-40"Smoke N Mirrors" > Niceville, FL > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Ryan Wright > To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com > Sent: Thursday, June 07, 2007 5:19 PM > Subject: Re: [WanderlodgeForum] Re: 1981 Blue Bird Wanderlodge back on eBay > > > On 6/7/07, truitt44@... > > > > What happened to Tom is a good reason to require a non refundable, minumun $1000.00 > > dollar or 5% of the cost of the coach deposit, within 24 hrs. of close of auction and > > balance and pickup due within 7 days.
