Reply With Quotei talked to colton and the guy did the same thing to him when colton was selling his white turbo talon. I didnt know colton knew him but he told me a couple days ago.
Ok i thought i would just warn all of you guys that have or plan on having your car put in the paper for sale. If this old guy calls the first day your car is in the paper and asks you if you could tell he a little more about the car and he is VERY HARD to understand then ask these questions...
1. What is your name?
- if he answers, Kevin then beware!
2. Where do you live?
- if he says Wilson Ave, and his name is kevin then tell him it is sold.
3. Ask him what kind of car that he drives.
- if he says a blue escort wagon then hang up the phone and dont waist your time.
If you think that i just got scrwed buy the guy your right but i also know 4 OTHER people that he has done the same thing to in the past 3 years to now. this is what he does... he will ask for you to meet him somwhere so he can look it the car. IF you go meet him and let him take a look at your car he will say how nice it is and that it looks like its a very good car or some kind of shit like that. He will ask if he could take a test drive but he WILL NOT want to drive it he will want you to drive the car he just wants to ride along with you. he will keep saying one place inperticular that he wants you to drive, (for me it was the interstate that he wanted me to drive on and for another friend of mine he wanted him to dirve buy the airport) he will keep syaing the one place that he wants you to dirve over and over. He is in his 50's i think and if you see him he is a creepy looking guy! he WILL SAY that he wants the car and to tell people that it is sold and that it will take a bit to get the money together. Before you guys say goodbye he will do one VERY IMPORTANT THING, he will offer you MORE thats right MORE money then what you are asking for it. For me he said he would give me $200 more then i was asking and for my other to friends he offered $400 more and $500 more. If you STILL stay in touch then he will call you the next day or have you call him the next day "so you guys can get together and go over some stuff" DONT GO OVER TO HIS HOUSE! he is not going to buy your car he justs wants to talk to young men and ride in cars with them. I did however go to his house one morring and his house is a crap hole and the floors are sticky and the house smells like PISS! if any of this happens to you then just leave him alone.
If anyone has delt with this guy PLEASE post here and let every one know. so far he has done this to 4 people, 5 including me. if any one else has had a call like this or have delt with this guy tell us about it here. And if you get a call from this guy then DO NOT MEET HIM!
If you have any more questions to ask me let me know. i just wanted to tell every one else this so this stupid shit doesnt happen to any one eles.

Everything that you are sayin sould really familiar!!
My friend Jon was selling an Escort ZX2 about 5 years ago. He got a call on the car and we drove to Wilson Ave. the house was a lil small and white w. a 1 car garage and small driveway and this little man seemed overly happy by our presence and he looked at the car and said the same shit. He wanted the stock rims and radio.. I dont remember too much about the guy, just that he lived on Wilson, small house, small guy, the house was on the right side as you were going towards 6th st. Somewhere near where 33rd ave pops out..
Oh well sorry for the shitty luck.
He did that too me when I was trying to sell my firebird a couple years ago... Everything you said is exactly how it sounds. He actually wanted to take me out to breakfast also but I was like ummmm no. He offered more for me to hold it and kept calling when I didn't want him too.
Then another time when I was trying to sell the Camaro in the paper I got a call from him again and did not want anything to deal with him.
Is there anything that can be done to stop him doing this?

This is easy, its like a handjob vs a blowjob.
The handjob you can give yourself so its cheap and easy.
The blowjob might cost you more, but the end result is much better.
This sounds like the guy that one of my firends had a few run ins with.
From his site
So I was selling my 87 honda accord right? Still am. A guy called about it I called him back and he talked really fast and he was kind of old. This was saturday. He wanted to test drive it so he had me drive it over since he didn't have a car. he tests drives it for a few blocks and says he wants it. Later that day he calls back and says that he is interested in the honda and wants to test drive it on the highway again, alone with me this time. Monday comes and he calls and wants the manual. But when I'm en route to bringing it over he asks me to pick him up a couple mt. dews and he'll pay me back.
Strange.
When I get to his house and go inside to give him the book and the pop I notice his walls are covered with HUNDREDS of clocks. All working, all in perfect time.
Strange.
We after sipping on the mt dews (which he pays for in dimes and quarters) and talking about the weather, he wants to take another test drive. Only this time I'm supposed to drive. We do and I tell him I need to get going. He says he has a bank appointment at 3 to get a loan and he'll get the car tomorrow (tuesday).
Tuesday comes and goes. I call in the morning and no one answers. No call from him until 10pm. "Sorry I got called into work I didn't forget about you. Give me a call back." I call him this morning and again, no one answers. He calls me back at 5 or so and says he had to work some overtime and he got called in early too but he wants the car tomorrow morning because the bank should give him the money by then. Ok I say. He then proceedes to ask me to drive him over to his friends house or something when I get off school because he doesn't have a car. I tell him well I dont get out till 10 so I'll call you if its not to late... A polite way of impling, "you've crossed the line. I don't know you. I'm not a taxi." He calls me back at 8pm. "hey I was just wondering when you get off school. Give me a call."
This is very creepy. This all sounds like the same guy and I remember Micah talking to me about him because I was considering buying his firebird at the time.
He told me he didn't want to sell to this guy because he seemed "creepy." lol. Is that the same guy Micah?

Is this house about a mile or so away from the railroad tracks? If so, about 6 years ago I was selling my red Laser RS-T and this guy called. I had to drive around for a test drive cuz he doesn't know how to drive an manual. He said he loved the car and would be willing to pay more if I waited longer for him to save up more cash. It was a small house and had a one car garage. At the time, the guy was driving an old Ford Escort. I bet this is the same guy I should drive by and take a pic of his house.
BlackVR6, maybe you can take a pic of for us all, it was so long ago I don't want to accidently take pic of the WRONG house. I bet this guy just does this for fun... or he's got some mental problem. It was the first time I've ever had to take MY car to the potential buyers house... usually the buyer will meet the seller at home or the Mall or something.

yes this is they guy! he had me drive to his house to show him my talon. It was smelly, small and covered in clocks and other random stuff. He was very very creepy, and i definatly want him to get a mental evaluation.
Mabye thats the only way he can talk to people? idk, i'd like to think theirs an excuse, but he definatly needs help.
Eric take a pic for us i cant remember exactly which house is his, but thank gof my bro came along with me. IDK what would have happened.
and yeha its after the tracks on your left if your headed towards edgewood.
Ya that allsounds really creepy, you would think that there should be something you could do. I guess he hasnt hurt anybody yet but why wait till something like that happens.
artyman:
we "victims" should get together and all go up to him and confront him. He could be some psycho and doin this could save someones life. What if some girl (your sister, cousin, friend or whoever) showed up with her car and and he takes her into his creepy ass house... and he snaps......
