Re: sold a car, buyer called and complaned
If you wanna be a nice guy and get it off your conscience, throw the guy $50 back. But if you were honest with the guy ---- it.
He probably just is pissed at himself for assuming it only needed the same thing his last 2 did and wanted to bitch at someone

Re: sold a car, buyer called and complaned
i bought a '91 cutlass when i was in highschool and the shift servos fucked and only had 1-2 after 3 weeks and like 250mi, the seller would not acknowledge it, nor did he take responsibility for his work (he was a garage) i sold the car to a junkyard filled the engine with atf and drove it there, locking it up in the lot and having to floor it for the last 5mi because atf does not lubricate an engine 
but i bet that ****** was SPOTLESS after 25mi of atf running through it at 4500rpm

Re: sold a car, buyer called and complaned
just spend 12 bucks or w/e to buy a replacement breakline and fix it for him
tell him other than that your not giving him anymore money off and that you already knocked 250 off the price for him
make sure you let him know your changing it only because you felt like being nice but that he test drove the car and saw everything before he bought it
12 bucks i think is the prebent crap
economy is crap you made out like a thief on that sale. so why not help the dude out?

Also, prebent hardline doesn't blow, the 15 year old rubber flex line blew. Costs more than you think.

and made 600 bucks No wonder you make sub-$8/hour cleaning floors, and can't move up in the world.
