your take on buying stolen goods
 
would you knowingly buy stolen stuff?
would you buy something that seemed sketchy, and not ask questions because you're getting a good deal and, why question a good thing?
my friend bought an intercooler with the serial numbers grinded off from ebay... they said it was brand new... i didnt know IC had serial numbers...

Bad Karma... I never buy anything if I even suspect that is was stolen.

Once you get jacked a few times you will understand.

Better not be the freaking intercooler from my stolen CRX last year >:(

If I ever came face to face with someone offering me stolen parts and they told me, "hey you want ____, really cheap!" the next thing they better do is duck, because my fist is going right into the same general area as their face, and I dont care if its a 10 year old girl or The Rock....in which case I am for the throat first.

^^^
I think that should make my opinion clear. I have no respect or tollerance for theives, especially after what they did to me, at a time in my life when I was just barley making it. I walk out and see my only transport to work gone...because some fucktard thought it was ------- fun/needed a few hundred/liked Hondas/whatever. I felt like "What the ---- did I do to deserve this ----...." Just think of that situation the next time you look at that intercooler

Re: your take on buying stolen goods
 
i'd buy stolen stuff, prefered stolen from a large company or a planned insurance claim. Personally property from random people, I tend not too like.

Re: your take on buying stolen goods
 
^ That's about it, Murdoc. I've never had anything jacked but I do know that if I ever did, I'd be so angry.. and I'm not about to help out someone who goes and steals junk off of other people, that's just feeding the habbit. >:(

Re: your take on buying stolen goods
 
I've had an interesting history, let's just leave it at that. I've been scammed, robbed, jacked and all, but I don't steal peoples stuff. Has it come across my head? Why of course, do I have the resource to have it happen, yup. But I still don't, even when as in retaliation on the people that robbed myself. :-\

However if it was stolen goods as a planned insurance claim as I stated above, yeah I'd buy, ---- ---- the insurance companies. They ------ rob me everymonth.

Re: your take on buying stolen goods
 
I wouldn't buy ---- because I have had ---- jacked before and I would not gve money to someone because he is a ------, doesn't feel like he has to work so he steals from people who work hard for what they have. On a side note, I had a system stolen out of my car twice and being that I worked at circuitcity and got the ---- cheap, and insurance paid well. I made enough to replace it and buy a b16 swap.

I'm a huge believer in karma. You buy stolen stuff it will come back one way or another.

I knowingly bought my 2 Clarion huge competitions amps stolen, but they were done through an insurance scam type deal where they claimed more than was actually stolen and we were friends and were just getting rid of the extra stuff they claimed for cheap to make some money to go to tenesse for a competition

Got 2 $1800MSRP amps for $200 each

For the guys who say insurance is rape...
Who pays for the lawyers, your account, people manning the phones, and their money?
I suppose it's fair when you buy a car, it gets wrecked, and they pay for the whole thing? Maybe you even make out on it?
I never hear anyone complain when they total their $600 car and get back more.
EDIT: you are also paying for everyone else here who profits by scamming them. Just like how stores have to find a way to make money after people shoplift. There is no victumless crime.

Hell no I wouldn't buy something I knew was stolen. You're funding theives. ::)

:-X
if you are professing your part in a known instance of insurance fraud on here then you are phukkin stupid.
and if you have never had anything stolen then just wait - it WILL happen. I guaran-phukkin-tee it.
i wish i could catch a fuckface stealing my ----. the guy will regret it, just leave it at that.

If you buy stolen ---- you just support theives which makes you no better.

Re: your take on buying stolen goods
 
yea i've bought stolen ---- and then felt like ---- after i got it. i thought of how the person i bought it from got it and it made me not even want it anymore.

but on the other hand somtimes theres deals you cant pass up.

and on the "i didnt know that it was stolen" excuse , its your duty to know and if you buy stolen goods unknowingly
you still get in the same amount of trouble as if you stole the goods yourself so if your willing to risk jail time to save a couple bucks then go for it
but ive moved on from riskin my ass for a "good deal" ;)

One of my friends had a car that bluebooked for like $725 and some chick readended him hard and totalled it. Her insurance investigated it for like a month and then decided to kindly give him $600 to replace the car. So now he has no car and he cant get a decent one for the $600 they gave him for the running car he had, which actually wasnt so bad. Sounds like rape to me. And even if I did have a $600 car with full coverage, and I wrecked it, I have a $500 deductible even though I pay 2500 a year for insurance. So yeah, I really come out on top ::) ---- insurance

Yeah, that sucks. I won't disagree with you on that. But I wouldn't cry over $125 loss, not really rape, just a screwing. He or his insurance company sucks. Just thinking since I don't know the complete story. You can actually say ---- blue book and try to find proof of the same/similar car selling for more. State farm has been amazing to me.

$2500/year?
Age/sex/location/points/discounts/car/coverage?
If it's not your fault, the other person/insurance pays your decuctable by the way. AT least my State farm guy has made them pay for my deductable/rental car.
I've never paid more than $150/month, even when I was 16. I went to my own policy when I was 18, full coverage, decent amounts for medical and whatnot and paid $140 or so.
Now I'm 23, male,, no points, no more good student discount, and I even get dinged on having a dangerous compact lol neon. And I pay $1,200/year.
Unless you drive a sports car and/or have a bad history. Yeah, $2500 seems like rape to me.

insurance is bottom line rape. you wouldn't feel that way since you didn't have to pay 8k a year for a car you paif 15k for and this was for basic liability. And then you get a break and get full coverage with a 5k deduct for 8k a year for a better more expensive car. and then the insurance company decides to RAPE you and try to charge you 14k for the exact same coverage if you want insurance for the next year.

Why do I have insurance? cause if I ---- up, I don't ---- YOU people over. Or would you rather me not have insurance and slam my bullet into your car.

Insurance = rape don't bother telling me otherwise.

Amen, god damn it. I hate people who don't feel like they have to work, and just mooch and steal off the people that actually try to make a damn living.

Anyway, I wouldn't buy anything that I knew was stolen from an individual, especially not local. I personally wouldn't worry about an intercooler with the serial numbers ground off though...it just dosn't seem reasonable to me that somebody would grind the serial number off an intercooler...I mean, I didn't even know intercoolers had serial numbers.

As for thieves, insurance companies, and bottom feeding maggots, they're all the same ------- thing, give them what they deserve.
