Merry Christmas?

Merry Christmas to you to Darren

Hope you have had a very successful year from all the UK traders who have supported you in your early years.

:roll:

Gary, “Hope you have had a very successful year from all the UK traders who have supported you in your early years”?
What does that mean? Because I have sold busses in the past to " UK Traders", I’m not allowed to sell directly to the “average working Joe”/ non-trader population today? Come on man, that’s like me saying UK traders can’t buy directly from the American public. You “Traders” have to go through me and a few other sellers if you want our US vans, no buying from the public brother, we want our piece!
I would never say that because it’s BS! I mainly sell to Traders! A few of those vans are on the forum right now, offered by “Traders”, marked up, some of them fixed up, and ready to sell. And Gary I’ve sent you emails too on vans I’ve had prior to listing them on the Earlybay, you’ve not been left in the dark.
Let’s be real, there’s quite a few guys out here in the states that WON’T even sell a van to one of you “traders” from the UK . I’ve invited “Traders” to my home, shared beers with them, and even offered a room in my house for a night to help save them a few bucks, not because of money but because it’s the right thing to do. In fact Gary, I’ve even let some “Traders” ship their vans back to the UK before I was even paid! That’s a pretty sweet deal if you ask me, especially when it meant they could buy other vans, from other customers, potentially putting more money in their pockets.
I don’t care if a van I sell goes to Kamchatka, if someone has money(or I trust them), and they want a cool old vw van that’s gonna put a smile on their face, then damn heck they have a right to buy it from whoever they want! Thank God, and God Bless America and England, that we live in free countries, where we can buy and sell old VW’s in a free marketplace.
I’m sorry for pissing you off, I don’t like having people mad at me, and right now you’re the only person I can think of who is, or at least been willing to say they are. Hope this doesn’t open the flood gates.
And Merry Christmas to all, not because of a successful year any of us have had, or think we’ve had, but because of the Gift we’ve been given, and that Gift, being Life.
Cheers

Bump for nice projects- Not been on here for a while.

Sorry for not using the PM option:
I'm not a trader and I've bought last December a nice earlybay project from Darren for a nice price. He is a good and honest guy.
So with a simple 'Thnx' i'd like bump this add for him.
