He never said anywhere that he had that much in life savings. The fact that a 60k truck would have a warrenty and the fact that he never mentions how much of a savings was lost leads me to believe he lost maybe 3 or 4k.

what a bunch of BS...I got from it that he wanted someone to buy that truck for him because he got ripped off...he needs to quit his crying, get a real job(other than just cutting grandmas grass on the weekend), save his money and buy his own damn vehicle. Hell I've had my 2001 since 05 and I was eighteen when I bought it. took my 3 years to pay the damn thing off and i'm not cryin to anyone that somebody should have bought it for me.

Yup, that's what I did, its called GET A LOAN. At 17 he should have a job, but grass cutting, that's side work. This kid needs to grow up and accept responsibility for his own actions.

Now that is something I haven't seen on ebay yet, some young punk begging for money. I think this is my favorite line out of his ad:

And I cant figure out how to put buy it now but hopefully I can find it. I have two ads up, one under laborghini section but if both are bid on by a mircale ill only accept one, I didnt want anyone to think im trying to get double the money or anything.

Thanks

How sweet of the kid, he will only accept one bid

That pissed me off so much i wrote him a little messsage lol

Hey there "Alex" (or Timmy?), Im pretty SICK that you even have the audacity to list such a request. Let me tell you a little about myself - I'm 19 years old, when i went to buy a vehicle I scrounged up what money I had (Earned, worked, had a REAL job 6-7 days a week, 40-55 hours)and got myself a truck. It was a grand total of $4K. Its a 2001 Ford 7.3 Diesel and its got almost 300K! Missing a door panel, rust, no power windows, its what some may call ghetto! Your young kid, your destined to drive a piece of garbage when your young and stupid! It motivates you to work harder (not cutting gma's lawn) and get a better vehicle. This is pretty insulting to hard working younger Americans and it really makes me wonder why you think your entitled to someones elses donation? That 60k could go to a local handicapped school, a soup kitchen, or the less fortunate - instead your asking for 60k to blow on a "cool lifted truck!". Hope you sleep well! (and get your truck)
