67 Camaro - Project Resale Red

[Shark Racer]

I've dealt with Gui on numerous deals, as have many other people.

I also spoke with Gui concerning whether or not to take the $3,000 offer.

I told him that that kind of offer made me very nervous - what we do know is that the transmission was working when it left, and the car has gone to Texas and now the guy is saying the transmission is busted and he's willing to send it back along with a partial refund of $$. Best case, Jason is being honest and Gui is out the $$ to build a transmission. Worst case, Jason and/or the shipper really messed the car up and $3k is cheap compared to what Gui actually has to do to get the car sold again.

Now, I'm not accusing Jason of anything, I'm merely stating that there are a lot of unknowns for Gui and in his position that kind of offer made me nervous.

As for the "rust-free" comment, I agree with the general consensus that that was a mistake for Gui to state as such.

The last time I sold a car to someone out of state (actually, out of country) he paid for the car up front without an inspection. I kept the cash on-hand in case he decided he didn't like the car for whatever reason; thankfully he came down and looked at it himself to get ready to drive it home. 2 years later he's still quite happy with it.

After witnessing Gui and Jason's experience, I definitely wouldn't want to be the buyer or seller in this situation. I know that there are people out there who pull stuff like this but I know Gui is not one of them. I'm hoping that there's an amicable resolution.

I also think it's quite unfair to immediately post a thread that's basically a backstab at Gui when he's already proven that he was willing to work with Jason on the deal (the transmission offer).

My $0.02. (not the first post on this forum I really wanted to make. lol)
