Are these cam journals serviceable?

[joedls]

I don't want to get into this and I really could care less about what any of these guys do, but, I think Kuro!'s main issue with Holywood is the reselling of parts on THIS FORUM when said parts were either purchased or given to him FROM THIS FORUM'S members.

To quote the specific instance he is referring to, the Carbon Fiber Intake Cover. If I am not mistaken, the original owner was giving it away for free and posted up in the classifieds. Now Holywood called dibs, went to pick it up and is now reselling that same part in our classifieds for profit when everyone else had a shot at it for free previously.

I can kinda see his point as it does feel like a bit of a slap in the face in that respect. Again, I'm not taking sides, I could care less. I'm from Canadia and the classifieds here don't do me much good, but I can kinda see his point, at least in that instance.

What if Hollywood had not gotten that part. Say someone else got it, put it on their car, then decided they didn't like it. They decide to sell it for $90 shipped to help cover the cost of the new piece they're gonna buy to replace it. Is that a slap in the face?

It's the same result. I don't think either one is wrong. If you don't like the motives of a particular seller, don't buy from them. That doesn't make them wrong.

Lol
This argument is pointless
If already been questioned by admin about my selling parts this week
Answered
And was found not guilty of being a vendor due to the fact I'm not buying just to flip
Most parts i sell have been on my car n i change my mind
I've never locked a thread until after payment was sent
It's not my fault i can send a pm get a response
And pay all within 5 min
Then lock it because said item is closed i may lurk this thread but I'm not going to post a reply to everycomment made because frankly you don't mean shit to me Kuro
I see why you might be upset that i got a part for free and i am now selling it or that 6 mod ago i paid 80 for a grille i had for awhile then sell it for $90
But don't pull locking threads into this because that's a bunch of bs .
Never on a part i have bought or sold or even moderated have i locked before item was gone . As per the thread Shawn made on free parts it was locked after he texted me telling me too since i had already to arranged to pick up the parts when i swapped wheels with him . So you can keep beating that dead horse all you want but i see nothing coming from it

I am with kuro on this one for the simple fact that we have one vendor on here that I bet makes less money than Holywd does selling parts on gere. I can't think of his name but the guy that does the led bulbs in the dash and radio parts, I bet he don't make much on them but has enough respect to the other vendors that he became one.

Respect for not only the other vendors but members as well.

Caleb, you sure as hell didn't get your reputation from pulling shit like this.

RH provides a service of working on parts
Vendors have distributers
I buy parts for my car , and wen it's time to get rid of them i sell them here or on CL like the rest of you . I don't have distributers and suppliers

Then where are you getting the other parts to re-sell? I hate like all-hell to quote wiki, however...

"Conflict of interest".

I can see how this could have an appearance of a conflict, even if there is none in practice.

I pored my roomates wheels and the cf cover
Everything has either been on the car or was purchased for and not used . No diff than anyone else i just buy ALOT of stuff for my car and change my mind ALOT . Don't hear y'all bitching when i buy a 300$ intake new
Use it 3 months
Then sell it at 1/2 price cause i change direction . Lol over 300 transactions = 297-298 pm's to me saying thanks for the hook up your rock .
If i had distribution hooking me up with discounts an i was pushing there parts that's one thing
But used parts off my 06 or 12' , or even sometimes parts i bought new from vendors 90% and didn't install because i sold the car , get over it

Yeah, I know.

...get over it

I don't have to get over anything. You're re-selling parts that you were given or that you paid for, that is called re-distribution. Do you actually think that the vendors here get all of their parts for free and then pay a small annual fee here to sell them?

Lol i traded my Shelby Redline wheels and tires for them
Then traded those for my drag wheels . Sorry you couldn't afford them . I like Svt wheels you have though , refinish was a better plan
You where all over my redlines when i posted them fr sell wanting to do a trade or trade plus $ , didn't hear you bitching then ?.....

A "moderator" making personal jabs now?

He can learn the definition of a flip first

So i have a set of wheels on CL for sale and here off my 06'
Guy on CL emails hey wanna trade
I say ok
Then post those for sale
Then someone wants to trade for drag wheels and i do it ten sell the drag wheels
I paid no money there to flip i just traded wheels till i had a set someone wanted .
Flip would have been me paying te CL guy 800$ for them then flipping for $1200 or even 900 

Shut the fuck up Kuro.

This back and forth is between all of you guys, but don't fucking provoke this guy, then whine if he lashes back out.

You've been allowed to say your piece, why wouldn't he?

Jesus fucking Christ!

 

[JEWC_Motorsports]

Either way they were selling for 700, You really think anyone would trade SVT wheels and new tires plus 300 cash for those cs66 wheels? Your fucking crazy. And as far as the redlines i was all over them until you posted pictures of the curb rash then you never heard from me again. You think your the only one who knows what shit is worth. I had respect for you until you pulled that shit. Then the parts you got for free when others wanted them. Then you come here and try to sell them. Ever heard of pay it forward?


Caleb btw how couldnt i afford them? You wanted 300 plus my wheels and tires. It cost me 450 to get all of mine refinished. I just didnt think yours was a deal after all, i know what they were selling for.

 

[Charlie Sheen]

...he asked me to send it as a gift so he wouldn't get "taxed" on it...

Is this true?

Thats fair if you didnt like my offer . But swapping that CL guy wheels for wheels isn a flip .
