I personally am getting really bored of some of the comments that are being regularly posted by some members in particular(you know who you are).

If you have nothing positive to say and not interested in purchasing the item(s) spare us all with what you clasify as humourous comments....and spare me the "its my opinion" BS too!

ON YA MAN!! :bounce

57kombi · 26 Jan 2005, 6:43 pm

Excuse me for breathing, some one posts on here doesnt give any information, no pics, no details, what do you expect,
It is a forum, a place for people to express themselves.
This person has only ever posted in the for sale section , never contributed to the site,
Wayne
How is us having a laugh or having a dig, effecting you????
If you dont like it ignore it, easy fixed.

Lets see now,I,ve known Steve for a few years now and my old man went and had a look at the said van just last week and to his knowledge it's not too bad but the usual thing with panels......windows cut in!.
So,this to the average joe would not be an issue,but to me and others it is a no-no,bad-bad almost upthere with a choptop bug.
Anyway,to the av-joe,this is still a reasonable propersition,so George!go get some pics of this van,pics tell a thousand words,it is such a let down when you see a post of a splitty for sale and it has no pics.
Do him a favour.

bigbaja · 26 Jan 2005, 9:27 pm

here is another thought just ring him on the number that he has provided

when you think really hard about its all so easy

I only made my comment as there are quite a few new people on this site who are after splitties and do not know their value,A few dont even know the years or differances between models and come to this site for help and to learn.

I do not know the seller or have anything against him personally but to new people this might sound cheap .
I thought that as this is an enthusiasts forum we are here to help each other, how would you feel if you were new to a scene and bought something that was worth $1000 for $7800.

Please let me know if anyone on here would buy an unrestored split that has had windows cut in it for this price.

Are we just supposed to keep quiet and let new members get stung, I dont think that this was the reason Jim started this site.
Could a moderator please let me know if I am doing anything wrong, if so I will keep quiet .

Cheers
Dave

5PL1TDCS10N · 27 Jan 2005, 12:11 am

How is your comment(s) educating people on what to look for with Splits?

Dave, maybe if your intention is to educate people on VW splits etc you can do it without sarcasm and practice some internet courtesy, as you have not displayed this on this post.

Perhaps imagine yourself saying it to someone that you don't know face to face before you type it to see what impression it gives?

I've been on here for awhile and have noticed this kind of cynicism creeping in. Its unattractive and not at all welcoming to new members or those from overseas.

Im sure Jim did'nt have this in mind either mate. It does'nt reflect well on the VW community

Well I am afraid but I stick by my comments.

There were no pictures posted and no details , even the ones required to post on this site,
I made what I thought was a humerous comment about was it restiored and must have been a while ago at that price, because I was having a laugh as there was no pic or details.

If I upset you Wayne, get a life. And what I post on here I would say in person.

Cheers
Dave

5PL1TDCS10N · 27 Jan 2005, 11:41 am

**Yawn....I can hear you speak but you're not saying anything as usual Dave. It feels like a cry for attention, to be a moderator or join TFSP(The For Sale Police) I'll even buy you a nice shiny gold shield.hehe

Did it ever occur to you that you might be the only one that thinks you're funny?

But keep up the good work nevertheless and reach your mindless 100000000000 posts, helping all of us learn more about Splitscreen buses along the way.

Good bye-W

:kiss

57kombi · 27 Jan 2005, 11:53 am

Shame you cant see that you are doing the same.
If its a bithfest and you want to leave the last comment, go ahead, you win, I wont post another here and let you.

Feel better now!!

Cheers

Secoh · 28 Jan 2005, 11:11 am

so let me get this straight; you pricks don't want to buy it, you just want him to waste his time organising pictures so you can all sit behind your computers and say crap like "Gee, shame I don't have any money" or "Looks nice I'll give you a dollar for it" and in the mean time this poor bugger finds his first visit here is met with abuse and chronic time wasters.

Steve, ebay is your friend.

57kombi · 28 Jan 2005, 4:05 pm

First visit my arse.
He has been breaking the rules on all his posts and adverising stuff on here without the details that are required.
He has been told numerous times.

Feel sorry for him by all means.

All of his ads should have been removed a long time ago by the moderators, other peoples do!!!!

Cheers
Dave

david

Is this restored??
It actually looks a bloody nice bus, one that should not last long for sale and I have seen worse for more money.
Everyones taste and needs are different.
As for people wanting to make big profits from thier hobby, I have spent around $20,000 (thats when I stopped counting) on mine plus my own time, when, not if, I sell it for $30000 it wont be for a big profit.
If someone bought the above van they COULD spend $20,000 on it no problem.
Yes they are worth thier weight in gold to thier owners !!

frog · 4 Feb 2005, 11:06 pm

Looks alright to me,on the road for around 8 grand seems reasonable.
Thanks for going to the effort to get pics George,it has helped everyone I hope.

ClassicVW(pacific) · 4 Feb 2005, 11:29 pm

Yeah well done George

frog · 4 Feb 2005, 11:54 pm

Yeah!...who said he is crazy,maybe kooky though,but Kooky George does'nt sound right,
