    Default nvmysrt: Questionable Seller

    *******UPDATE********


    nvmysrt and myself have resolved our issue. I would like to say that we were able to work something out that I believe is fair and square. This being said I want to leave a couple of reminders for anyone that may be buying anything any time soon.

    1) Make sure to be very thorough with your inspection of something before buying.

    2) Keep a cool head.

    3) Ask lots of questions before buying.

    4) Try to arrange some sort of agreement on any possible refunds if you have any reason to think it may be necessary.


    Not all situations will turn out the way this did. Though it was a hassle for both parties involved, a larger hassle was avoided because those involved handled the process in a semi-professional manner.


    In closing I would now consider nvmysrt a decent seller. I may not ever do buisness with him again but I don't think he is out to screw you.

    I have continued to try and contact him today with no luck. Check out this thread to see what I am talking about, specifically starting at post #17:

    Thats odd! i was the one that helped pull the motor. when we got the motor to my house, we cleaned it up. then we put a braker bar on the crank and it turned over a few times. after that we put it in my shed where it sat for a few months untill we put it in...

    he is not trying to rip you off to our knowledge it was a good motor...

    i vouch for NVMYSRT!

    What is your vouch worth? Nothing here.

    Rerun, I hope it works out for you. Hopefully that dumbass will pull his sack out of guts and let them dangle so he will know what it's like to be a man and own up. Later, QD.

    How easily did it turnover with the breaker bar? It shouldn't take that much force to turn the crank anyways. You also have to understand what it looks like to me when he has seemingly started ignoring me. Everything was pointing to him being reasonable up until that point.

    it turned over just fine. the car was sold as is, and the motor was pulled from a wrecked car that sat for a long time. and once we had the motor it sat for about 8 months. but it DID TURN OVER BEFORE WE PUT IT IN

    "As is" also means "as described". He told me several different times there was nothing wrong with the motor and that it would work fine. It doesn't work fine, and there is obviously something wrong with it. It cannot be turned by hand and the starter won't turn it either. Also, if there is nothing wrong with it why isn't he in here or pm'ing me back. That seems a bit off to me.

    why are you positive the motors toast?? being that it was just "droped in" investigate why it wont turn over look for stuff like a bolt stuck in the flywheel. or a stuck starter. it might be something overlooked by both partys

    The motor is coming out soon and I'm putting in a new one. Once it's out I'm probably going to take it apart and see exactly what the problem is. Myself and a couple other people have come to the conclusion that it is probably a bent rod or a dropped valve.

    Unfortunatly though there is no legal actions that can be made. If you have a bill of sale and he does that says the car was sold as is w/ no warantys expressed or implied there is no LEGAL action that can be done. Moral yes, legal no. When I sold my corolla the kid blew up the engine before he got home with it. Did I give him anything, yeah I told him not to worry about the 100 dollars he owed me. I only did that because I knew there was no way I was ever going to see the money, that and he was spinning tires out of my neighborhood and was generally beating the **** out of the car. For future reference assume if the person says the motor worked and it doesnt currently assume its not going to work.

    actually there can be small claims legal action. Like QD said, BECAUSE nvmysrt said that ALL it need to run was ****,******,******** then that is not really being sold as is. But seeing as how the motor is bad, and that it needs more than specified he can get him in small claims court. But only with a bill of sale!

    other than that i was just following up the thread to see if the problem was resolved!

    Are you serious? When you incorrectly describe something, you are liable. If he said I dont know if the motor will run, he has no liability, but when he assures you that it will run and it doesn't there is clearly a problem.
