My buddy was trying to buy a car and got treated like a criminal for it.

A friend of mine has been in the market for a project car. Nothing fancy. Just an older vehicle he can tinker with on weekends. 

He found one online. 25 years old, 170,000 miles. He reached out to the seller and asked a couple of questions.

Here is a picture of the text interaction

My buddy (God bless him) kept his composure better than I would've. 

Now look. I'm not the most patient man on earth. 

But even I know that when you're SELLING something, the buyer gets to ask questions. That's how commerce works. 

That's how it's worked since somebody first traded a goat for a bag of grain.

You want my money? Then you answer my questions. All of them. With a smile, if possible.

I've seen sellers get touchy before, but this one takes the cake. 

The man is selling a quarter-million-mile car and he's got the audacity to act like he's doing the buyer a favor.

My buddy moved on and found a better deal elsewhere. 

This dumb a** seller is still sitting on his overpriced beater, waiting for a buyer who doesn't ask questions.

Good luck with that.

Have you ever dealt with a seller who acted like it was a privilege for them to sell to you? I'd love to hear it.

Enjoy your Sunday!
