I haven't even read through all of these, yet, but damn...

About 6 months or so ago, before I moved up north, he sent me a PM, asking me to quote a bunch of work. I couldn't even really understand what he wanted. Stuff like, 'a DD in the dash, maybe 2, and a couple DD's in the back'. By DD, he said that he meant double din, but I still couldn't figure it out.

I asked him to bring the car by, and he said it was too far just to come in for an estimate, but if I gave him a good price, he'd just bring it in to let me start. I asked for pictures of what he wanted, and he sent me all sorts of pics, of all sorts of installs...ranging from simple to insane. I finally just told him that I wouldn't give him an estimate, without seeing the car.

I kicked myself for a little while, thinking that if I had spent more time with this guy, I could have had a really nice, big job...boy, am I glad I didn't...

Sorry you took him on, ImportGuy, best of luck. And by the way, the work you did looks absolutely fantastic!

I didn't see his address posted anywhere? I know where he lives but I wouldn't relay that information to anyone considering there are OTHER people that live with him... who are innocent in this whole thing.

I have been talking to this guy via pm about doing some detailing work for me. I am glad I read all of this, because he would have loved to scam me. Until I let my old lady kick his ass.

So, they just gave you a down payment on a paint job...and you paid 16k out of your pocket to do everything else to this p.o.s? tisk tisk....good luck getting what you want out of this though, if you decide to destroy the car instead of selling it, let me know...i'm right down the road

even though skittle is trying to make it blatently obvious by trying to pull a simple answer... judge's aren't retarded, they are going to see these posts, and his previous record, and know it was a scam all along. the kid is dumb as fuck.

even if he has "talked" to anyone worth anything, he's getting the answers he wants because he is telling him the side of the story that gets the answers he wants. wait until everything is presented, the kid knows he's fucked and is now bluffing. stupid lil fag
