Advertising mistakes can be taken into account but it wont be held to same standard as a printed ad since it was on ebay. The dealer at any time could have realized their mistake and changed or removed the ad. There wouldn't be a jury trial on a dealer advertising case so I dont know where you got that. A judge would rule with the law and against a shady dealer trying to keep a car so they can get an even higher markup than the agreed upon above MSRP price. No sympathy will be given for that action in a court. I doubt a lawyer not affiliated with the buyer called the dealer to threaten legal action. That lawyer would be disbarred. There is so much inaccuracy in your post I cant even begin to point out all the places where you are wrong with your assumptions about the law. After reading your post I am reminded of a quote from Billy Madison: "Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul." |

Congratulations to the OP for the positive results w/ Lincoln BMW! As dooma350 know, I've been supporting him privately, and have been following this situation closely like all of you.
Just like many others on here, I've done my work offline to get the word out, but as I was trying for a much bigger outlet, didn't want to post the specifics here to prevent rumors from exploding out. Still, I am very very glad to see some positive results, and congrats to dooma350 again. Let's hope that the conditions aren't unreasonable, and that it's smooth sailing from this point forward. For all the rest, I've skipped over all the rants / poor language posts, etc. This has been a great thread. Let's not ruin it at the end w/ the use of poor language and character... ...most people skip to the end in a huge thread like this. Let's not let the first thing they read be of people cussin each other out, because the rest of the posts are really inspiring to read.

Laszlo> ... be more careful about what you say, especially on a public forum. This is public record after all. Especially you, Xcellere ...be more careful about what you say, especially on a public forum. This is public record after all. Especially you, Xcellere
Excellent advice. ArtPE is also placing himself at unnecessary risk. PE registrations are a matter of public record ... and his state makes them avail on-line. |

Wow- it took me a LONG time to read that thread- and everytime I thought I was almost finished there were more pages to read. In any case, ladies & gentleman, behold the power of the internet! Amazing story and congrats to you Dooma! Hopefully those conditions aren't worrisome. Enjoy your new ride and DEFINITELY post some pics!!!

Congratulations are in order.
Hey all,
Like many others, I went ahead and joined the forum after reading almost every single post in this thread, and on many different websites. I did my part in spreading the word via my friends' blogs, school events, etc. To Dooma: I am so glad that you finally got the deal @ $60,000. Words can't describe how happy I am for you. You deserved that car and finally got it. Don't you just love the internet and its power? Props to all the forumers and new members who went out of their way to help Dooma, too. That was amazing. To ArtPE: Wow, I've never seen someone so blind to the real world. Maybe you should get out into the real world sometime and take a deep breath of fresh air. The arguments and points you brought up made me want to join the forum to simply laugh at your logic. You MUST have been a dealer rep in a previous life. To anyone who thinks the dealer made an honest mistake here and deserves sympathy, you're only making a fool outta yourself. The dealer knew EXACTLY what they were doing, and didn't want to carry through a deal that went sour for them. This happens TOO much on eBay: Seller sets the price low on purpose to attract attention and bids. When their plan fails, they're screwed and don't wanna follow through with the deal. Too bad baby...toooo bad. I'm looking forward to posting on M3Post. I've been an avid forumer on M3forums, and M3Post should be a nice addition to my Firefox links toolbar. Hope to chat with you all soon! Cheers, Chris |
