I have been searching for an early Toyota to fix up with my daughter in the Southwest for several months. Yesterday I found a great starting point and emailed the seller within an hour of the post offering to take the day off work to pick it up. His post was removed the next day. Sad, but figured if it goes to one who intends to drive it then cool. Very next day, a vehicle flipper is selling it for over 2x what the original owner was asking. I have run into this guy before and he is very unprofessional to the point where he threated me and my family after I called him out on a prior vehicle.
He has since pulled down his post on FB and Craigslist, but is still contacting me letting me know it is available. I'm thinking he has pissed others off as well...
While I'd really like to meet the guy and punch him square in the nose, that serves no actual purpose and would just be detrimental. Thinking it is best just to walk away and ignore the guy.
Has anyone else encountered such behavior when trying to fix up your old Toyota?
