I'd probably report the first one as being fraudulent.

Yeah.. 87 being the year the Tiffany was created.. probably didn't know anything about cougars so he assumed they used an 87

The Tiffanys were about 1-2 years behind the actual Cougar model years. So an '87 Tiffany looks like an '86. I think they even had '89 Tiffanys that looked like an '88. Whatever the conversion company sets for the model year of the completed car, that's the one the government cares about, not the manufacture date of the initial car shell.

Thats my favorite part of the entire add. Hes trying to make it sound as if the car was made by Duesenberg.

If you gentlemen don't like the item you do not have to bid on it. I already received numerous offers in the 30k-40k range. Please don't bash my auction on your forum or I will have to take legal action.

This forum is international.. I know that the United States is starting to pass a law about not being able to harass people over the internet.. but I am from Canada. Legal Actions don't scare me.. for one.. But since you were polite and you said "Please" I will refrain from saying anything further about your auction..
 
However.. Please clarify which auction you're talking about.. there were two posted in this thread so that we can continue bashing the other. Thank You.

Sellers like that are why I no longer buy off eBay. Misleading even if it doesn't quite meet the US definition of fraud.

Exactly.. If the guy Larson1932 is talking about the Deusy claim then he shouldn't be taking legal actions against us, he's the one misleading people.

:rollin: He called us gentlemen.

I would have thought that us talking about it on this forum would be covered by the freedom of speech for those of us in the US.  Its not like we hacked his auction page.

And those of you not bound by this fine countries borders and legal restrictions...  please, continue the mockery.

(legal note: I never once bashed the car or the auction) :grinno:

Which makes it sound as if a 1984 Duesenberg is being sold. That is 100% dead WRONG. It is a Tiffany Classic, not a Duesenberg. Where does a Deusy even come into this picture? It has nothing to do with a Tiffany at all.

Oh, I need to reiterate. Let me put it in a larger size:

Even larger...and with flair:
[SIZE="7"]WRONG!!![/SIZE]

Again, comparing the two. They're not even in the same class. Where exactly is this mystical link? Anyone?

Bueller?

So I find two misleading counts right away.This car is, by far, the highest-mileage Tiffany I've ever seen, and also the highest starting bid (when most Tiffanys go for between $20-30K us, the most expensive I've seen being in the $35K US neighborhood). There is as much correlation between a Duesenberg and a Tiffany as there is between the accepted value of a Tiffany and this Tiffany's starting value. So again I again state: crack smoker.

Trust us, pal...we're not going to bid. ;)

And for the record...had the rules of the board been read before signing up, you'd know that you are responsible for your own actions and words, and the last time I checked that was pretty much covered under the First Amendment.

Thanks for making my day though! This is thoroughly entertaining. :D
