E30 Zone

There was a a few days ago, on here, regarding people just signing up on here to make money of actuall zoners etc....dont know if im wrong here, but the selling this did say he sold it...

This was on sale here for around 900 with borbet a's, now look..

Oh jesus, he is making millions

Alpinas? Really?
They look like replica to me.

coincidering he the huy had borbet a's on was asking 900, without borbets, and now got alpina reps, and still asking more than the original guy.

The borbets seemed to be in pretty good condition, so must have been worth at least 4-500 roughly...

Probably the reason they bought the car and now trying to get there money back = free borbets
Does not state whobought it in the ad and the location of both ads are the close

Was not the original seller called Mark, and also lived in Cornwall.No mystery really, just selling it at a slightly higher price through a different media as far as i can see.

Doesnt matter whos selling it and for how much and where

if someone wants to make a few quid then thats up to them

its up to who ever buys it if they buy it
some people are worse than the gestapo

Just my 2 pence worth

well thats your opinion, the only reason i mentioned it, as some zoners may be interested in people coming on here to take advantage of the zone, as alot of people haev previously criticised certain zoners buying of zoners then selling it back up here to make money...

Hmm, caravan site.

at the end of the day no one is forceing anyone to buy anything
its there choice

i can see why people like jonb dont bother with the zone anymore

whats jon b got to do with this.....

yea its there choice, but thought ill jsut show them, have you even read the other thread...

at the end of the day if they can see profit in it they still have to buy it to start with or it could be they just don t like it and want to move it on. ive bought a few things on ebay with the sole intention of selling them on because i got them cheap no harm in it its just business at the end of the day

Just a conversation me and jon had last week
I can now see his point.

The only way to stop it is to stop everyone on the zone selling full stop

cant really see that going down to well

care to share

Not perticualy

Was a private conversation in my kitchen

The point is though people will always be trying to make money on the forums

Have you sold anything on here?

Its by the by that if someone bought this car off here and is selling it on for more thats not our buisness. We dont know if anything was done to make it worth more or not. And its still only worth what anyone want to pay for it anyway.

Iv brought parts cheap before and sold them on for more money,its how it is. Just because someone gets something cheap it does not mean they cannot sell it for more.

i know that, but the car itself isnt worth that much, the only reason, it was even worth money at the start, cos of the wheels.. but the cars a diy rattle can spray job to satin black, a 320, alpina reps.....

its worth what someone wants to pay for it

i wouldnt buy it but i will only every pay trade value on any car always have always will

i can buy i nice e36 328 tourer for that

shakeele30 whats it got to do with you anyway was you interested in the car if not dont worry yourself about it. i buy all my cars cheap and sell them on for profit after a little work and full mot

Had similiar conversations too.

This country is built on free trade and commerce. If someone thinks there's mileage in it, and a buyer thinks it's worth the money then so be it. Zoners aren't being bent over at all. There's all sorts of TV shows doing similar things. Buy something at a price lower than perceived value, clean it up, pump it out. No law against it and fortunately, the Zone doesn't govern the law.

the zone is pricey.. pistonheads is overpriced crap mainly and anything else might be worth a look..
I tried selling some stuff recently all I got was timewasters I'll have it oh no I'm not paying that for it.. but expect top dollar for their stuff.. this is why I cba selling any scrap I have because I'll get time wasters and stuff that I dont think is saleable just gets stockpiled

It was in Plymouth now its in Cornwall!

I dont think it is
I find everyone wants something for next to nothing on here and people are always driving the value of anything down.

You always get the time wasters where ever you sell

i price things to sell if they sell they sell if they dont im not bothered.
i will either use it at a later date or wait for a wanted add or failing that bin it.

why you taking it so personal, its a discussion thread, discuss, or shut up...

i remember not so long ago, people used to jump on peoples back when they use to buy stuff of zoners, then sell it for more, hence why i put this thread up. so what everythings changed all of sudden.

i know everyones out to make some profit...
