Brian,
No Problem---
I would be frustrated also given the same scenario----
It was nothing more than a TK ploy, in screwing around with Andrew--and
the van in question just happened to be your's--that's all it amounted
to.
I apologize for the misunderstanding, and will put some sort of
disclaimer on any more of my off-the-wall postings. (?)
As far as I'm concerned, we've kissed and made up----:>)
Forget E-Bay---
Try and sell it at Samba.com---free, and I have had good luck purveying
stuff there--lots of VW folks go there specifically, and there is a lot
of stuff there------I'd give it a shot anyway------
Later,
Terry

Terry-
Perhaps I misunderstood your humor. Let me explain it from my end, and
see how you would feel.
1- Put beloved van up for sale> giong well, getting a ton of hits, and a
few good bids.
2- guy puts up a post on Vanagon list, calling my van a Fankenstien van
etc.... BOOM_ the hits drop off, the bidding stops DEAD. 3-last minute
bid sniping rasies the van up to a poor price- I dont sell.] 4- same guy
posts to list a note that appears to be a HA-HA- told ya so, and appears
to rub my face in the misfortune he may or may not have created. How
would you feel?
If I misunderstood your humor,I am sorry- but it costs about 100 bucks
to NOT sell something on ebay. At the time it wasnt very funny at all.
So, in closing- I posted to the list in a fit of anger- I would like to
apologize for doing so.
I will think before posting the next time- perhaps if more of us did
this (not just you, Terry) these kinda things wouldnt happen.....
Humbly
Brian

on ....... see it just goes no where.

I think that this may be the case. I don't want Terry kicked off the
list, but his postings can be quite senseless and extremely
irritating... they certainly get up MY nose. I now generally just use
the delete function...
Perhaps he just likes to be contrary?
