I emailed him about a 68 bus he had for sale on thesamba a while ago. he was less than friendly. He wrote this back:

Quote
I want to sell my bus but I really don't want someone who already has too many projects to get it. I would much rather sell it to someone who knows how to send an email or call. I REALLY don't care for public forums. Just so you know time is not an issue for me so it can sit and rot for another twenty years. Sorry people get confounded when the price is adjusted. The grocery store does it every day and so does everywhere else you shop. I am available to sell every day so if it did not sell that was because no one showed up in person with cash. The day someone from thesamba does show up with cash will be the day hell freezes over. The price is irrelivant as this site produces only pointless grovel.

Take care (=
Hippie

I said: You don't sound too friendly; good luck selling it!

You sound as much like a buyer as a troll who lives in a dark undreground cave.

Good luck finding another complete sixties vw bus for $400 with title you big *ick.

Sounds like a real piece of work

I am almost to the point of flagging everything he posts up, but....occasionally he puts up something kinda nice for a good price and I wonder if I could suck it up enough to deal with him... probably not!


Check out his commune @ www.hippiehilltn.com (helping hungry kids)

T'an't me I'm talking about big guy. I don't deal with Butt Holes or 'Possum's.  Speaking of Possum's, Do you want a pair of 5 lug rear hubs that have good splines and lug bolt holes. They need BIG time sand blasted. I took them off a tranny and let them get a big case of patina. They even have rusty rims and bad tires.WOW  ;D They are going to the junk if you don't want them. Come get them.

I looked at his ads... I am almost 100% certain that its the same photos of the same parts. My guess is that he realized he was getting a bad reputation for being a dick and people started either flagging his posts or just not calling. He stopped putting the (= smiles and signing them Hippie. Also left out his address. He sucks.

Yup, think it's the same loser....  Advertised cheap parts last year showing pictures of engines outside, and then when I called....  Lord Have Mercy! ASked if I was coming "right now", then Says real loud.... "I don't want to do business with you"...
Why? cause I'm attempting to ask some questions? Or want directions?
Goose chases suck. 

I mean, if you don't have time to talk to your customers, you don't have a business.....
