Well today i was supposed to take a 5 hour trip to get my first gsx. Ive wanted one since i was a kid and after totaling my car i finally had enough money. Well i posted an ad on craigslist that i was looking for one and a guy responded and told me about his and everything. He claimed he had every receipt for everything ever done to it and that it had a clean carfax with 120k on it. Well it sounded good so my dad took off work to take me which surprised the hell out of me cause my dad thinks im a dumbass for wanting a car i love and that im willing to drive hours to get it. Anyway my dad took off and we were going to make a weekend out of it we were litterally getting into the truck to leave and the guy text me and said my bad the car actually has 150k on it... I was like how do you make a 30k mistake honestly! and i basically said well are you willing to drop the price and he said no and after like 30 minutes of wasting my parents time the guy just basically said eff off and now he wont text me. I was polite and everything. Well that was the 5th one ive tried to buy now and every time they drag everything out for 2 weeks then sell the car or tell me to eff off. Now my family is mad at me for wasting their time and i have no car, or the enthusiasm to find one. Anyone else ever been screwed over? Also sorry if this seems like a rant, i just really dont have any friends who understand cars or anyone who can relate to talk to.
