Hey guys,
I'm sure you all remember that story about the Ebay scam on the EVO. The dealership said (on ebay) that the car was sold for a higher price. This isn't true since we saw the car today on the 31st of October (pics will be added). We ask to take a look at the specific car, it's still there and everything. The guy tells us that he got a lot of 'hate mail'... Anyways, after that we take the sign out, i go out there while PHATMAN5050 takes the picture. Keep in mind there are about 15 car salesmen watching us do that. After 30 seconds they realize i'm holding up a sign, and this guy walks up, and SCREAMS AT US: "Get off my property right now, or I will have to call the police to have them remove you, STEP OFF THE PROPERTY!, IF YOU ARE NOT BUYING A CAR OR INTERESTED IN DOING SO, PLEASE STEP OFF!" We are walking very slowly back, and just say ok. The pictures were taken, and that's all we wanted.
Cliff Notes: Frenchcivic and PHATMAN5050 owned "Mark Mitsubishi".

That's messed up how shady that dealer did him. I bet they never expected this much attention. Lol they better sell him that car and count their losses.

all that talk on the internet and no outcome. I wonder if Mark is still looking into it. I didn't read tthe whole thing but I imagine it will just fizzle away in time like the dealer wants.
