My fault or just a bad day at work? (1 Viewer)

Had someone get pretty upset I'm not putting more prices on a entire truck I am parting out.. I'm new to this forum so sorry for any errors, but am I wrong or is he just a little bit too cranky?
His number is 310-847-0997

Let me know!

Update:

Not too sure on all the pricing, it's a brand new OEM unit from Toyota, I called the stealership and they said 3380 for the part. I thought 900 with shipping was pretty generous but I could be wrong! What would you all pay for a 100 series brand new unit?

Maybe he thought your unit was used?

Your price may be fair. Was it made clear that your part was new from Toyota? Yeah, it seems like he was being cranky, but you're being cranky by calling him out on the forum like this too.

So I'm confused to what he was trying to accomplish here.

Was he trying to argue that he should only pay $850?

In any way, he was being cranky and rude.

True I get that. Not trying to stir anything up.. Just didn't know if my prices were unreasonable or not. Good point tho. Thanks bryson

@emac in the ad it shows that it's a brand new unit from Toyota with only a few thousand miles on it, with supporting pictures.

I'm also new here, and would like to avoid coming across as a nosey jerk, but if I bought a part advertised as new I would expect zero miles not a couple thou. Lightly used in excellent condition may be a more accurate description of your part?

Agreed. Once it's installed it's used. It is no longer a NEW part. Ever.

the texts posted come across as rude regardless of the price, part, or condition. Its one thing to say "I think your asking price is high because of X, Y, Z." its another thing to go roll out the verbal diarrhea

You are taking it to hard, actually by IH8MUD protocol he should have given you the first

Meh, some people only know how to come accross as D bags when 'negociating'. You should shrug and move on.

You hit it on the mark
The older I get the more I just shrug, it's easier on my blood pressure.
