Flippers don't add any more than the car is actually worth via market value.

It's still pretty sobering to see the car change hands again  :-\

Let's see Kerny dog,maybe you should look at yourself in the mirror.im sure you never sold a car for profit,you should not be calling anyone a liar either,if you want the car buy if not don't be jealous,I make it a habit to keep my cars,however 20 or so is to much.yes it is a bad habit I make enough money during the week to support me,I do not depend on the cars for bread and butter,they are for fun,I've been playing with mopars for over 35 years so it is none of your business at all,what I buy and sell,

MY point, which idiots may never understand, is that using the "too many cars" bullshit when listing a car for sale is a stupid and pointless thing.
If you already have too many cars, why do you keep buying cars?
As far as I care, buy whatever you want. You want 100 cars?  That is cool. Are you spending your own cash? Sounds okay to me.
But.....If you are going to list something for sale, why type in the "too many cars" line? If you really do have too many, you have only yourself to blame. Is anyone just dropping off cars at your place, blocking driveways, jamming in other cars???
I buy and sell cars sometimes too. I see no problem with doing so. I never make up B/S lines to sell my stuff. Why do other guys?

gtss

Every car you guys own was someone's pride and joy,you can sell the car not the memories,I had no idea when I bought the car that it was nicks car,however the car was not given to me,it was available for sale,I bought it and now I want to sell it to by a piece of land,I'm getting tired of the car hobby is that a crime I'm 54 years old I intend to keep some of my cars but to many is to many,if you guys wasn't looking for a good deal why are you trolling ebay at home and work,how many people still have there car after 35 years I do 68 dart 383 4 speed,I'm sure most of you do to,I hardly ever join the forums most people are really decent,but some just judge everyone has the right to there own opinion,none of your cars are for sale but they can be bought,same as a so called flipper for profit,we buy  to fix up sell and buy a better car or parts car,who's the flipper in this hobby we all are in my opinion,

I can't understand why people get so mad when people buy something to re-sale it for a profit.   The only reason that makes sense to me is jealousy?   :shruggy:   All my life I have been a "flipper" as you guys call it.  (I call it "business minded")     I don't actively seek antique cars to re-sale, but when I run across them, IF THEY ARE CHEAP ENOUGH, I buy them and then remarket them with 30 or so pictures with a very descriptive ad.  I mainly re-sale newer stuff, Tractors, equipment, ect. (it's easier to sell) but in the past 2 years I have bought and resold one 69 Charger and two Chevelles.   I didn't make a killing on them but I did make a little profit to put back into my 69 Charger resto (that I have owned for 20 years and never tried to sell it).

Well said.....after all buying stuff for one price and selling it for more is what keeps one of the biggest economies in the world goin(that would be yours in the USA!!)....... and all the others. :lol:

ht4spd307

nothing wrong with flipping cars good luck to that person they put their money on the line hoping to make a profit like someone buying/ selling shares same thing different medium.at least he's not flipping drugs to our kids  :2thumbs:& maybe he did bullshit about to many cars so what its just a line its no different to any other car salesman crap.if i was interested in that car who cares who it belong to unless it had a sinister history and someone might pepper it with bullets :2guns:

Come on, Man!  I try to roll right past it but... Poor grammar and run on sentences are annoying to read. It is tolerable when the person is otherwise cool or helpful. I overlook it when the person doesn't lie about stuff or make up stories.
Also, I have no interest in the car. I have my own that I like and enjoy.
Money? Not a problem here. You mention that at 54, you want to sell off some cars to buy a piece of land. That is great....so why did you buy THIS car if you are trying to sell cars? Seriously, did you buy it and have regrets? I have bought cars that turned out to be worse than I expected. Who hasn't ?
Be honest with yourself and others. If you would just admit that you are a guy that loves to buy cars but loses interest in them, that is understandable. If you'd say that you made a few impulsive buys then later regrets them, that makes sense too. To buy a car then only a few weeks later say that you want to sell IT and others to buy some land does not sound like a enthusiast as much as a businessman. That is fine too.

Jealous?Wow how long have you owned your car?yes maybe I only have a high school education,but spelling maybe not be my trait,however if you ever want to compare to this bad writing redneck you might just get a surprise,Since you are perfect,I don't have to explain to you how much we all worship you as a self centered mopar god! That's not only my option,did I spell everything rite,maybe I did to piss you off! If you ever want to go deep sea fishing look me up free trip for you kerny dog, :lol:

On two occasions in my lifetime I have had too many cars and advertised them as such. The first event was ten years ago when moving from a farm with ample storage for many cars to a residential setting in a subdivision with room for only two cars. I advertised honestly that I had "too many cars". The second occasion was earlier this year when I was trying to purchase a 1969 Dodge Daytona. Since I owned five old cars and my wife requested that I reduce the raw number of vehicles before another was added I advertised and sold two cars honestly as "having too many cars". In neither event was there an attempt at dishonesty, and if someone were to suggest  that without the knowledge of my situation would be a grave and personal insult, thus I believe gtss' response is appropriate and frankly more reserved than the comments deserve.

Mr. gtss I do not know your situation, but I have no problem with your statement or predetermined opinion on your advertising. Good luck selling the car sir. Neither grammar nor spelling is an indication of anything other than grammar or spelling.

Thanks for the offer. I'm not much into fishing though.
Hey... I graduated from high school too! After that I enlisted in the Army. That could have been an interesting career had it not been for a minor hearing problem. I found my place in life though...Been in construction for right about 30 years. No, I'm not an English teacher as you may have guessed. I only have a California public school education and a love for old Mopars. I see that we have that in common, right? With all this bickering, we may have more in common that at first glance.
"Lord Warlock" guy was a frequent poster on this site. He was facing a death sentence with bravery, yet still logged on here to chat about Chargers and other things of interest. He just disappeared and until his daughter popped in to give an update, we didn't know if he was here or gone. As is the case with this hobby, many of the enthusiasts are getting to the age where health problems start to become a reality.
To see someone buy his car it looked like the torch had been passed to a caring enthusiast that may follow through with the project.
You have every right to do as you please.  I'm not in any position to dictate how you live your life. I just find it strange when I see time after time the same old lines used when a car is put up for sale.
Too many projects.
Not enough time.


I rarely ever see anyone write in their ad:
This car is a piece of shit. I was fooled into buying it.
I bought this car THEN learned how expensive they are to restore.
This car has some serious rust problems! PLEASE bail me out of this mess by buying it for MORE than I paid for it!


Again, when someone buys a car and very soon afterwards puts it up for sale, what are we to think? Either you are a buy and sell guy, ( NO problem with that) OR you made a mistake somewhere and are looking to get out. What mistake?
Bought with money that was needed elsewhere?
Buyer has a compulsive addiction to buy, followed by regret and the car is up for sale again.
Wife/Husband got pissed that she/he wasn't consulted.
The car needs work or money far beyond the capabilities of the buyer.
Again, I have no problem with any of these reasons. I doubt many people would. Just be honest about it.
