I am one of those who beleive a deal is a deal too. Sometimes it can suck when you agree and then someone else comes along and offers more but how would I feel if it happened to me. There isnt much left in this world we can measure ourselves against that counts, but I figure that I can set myself a high standard in this area if no where else.

It shits me when I get stung because of someones greed, lack of conviction and personal honour (yes I know that is an outdated value now), but I figure they will get theirs. Kharma will nail their slimey double crossing asses one day. :D

Well the one thing thats making it feel better is all the good guys on here that agree. But I cant hold it completely against the guy, he apparently misread one of my emails. But I personally still feel he should have still given me the option tather than going for the higher dollar he MAY get if the others decide to purchase. Mine was cash straight away. Who knows, maybe I will still get it...

I've been in the opposite side before, listed something for sale and someones said yep keen on XXX price sweet!

Start swapping details and someone offers $200 more :evil:

My other peeve is people who list something as 'Offers' and they put up for weeks on end not getting the offer they want when the thing obviously isn't worth that much.

should go from upright on the side hoop to the floor in the centre rear (behind the rear seat)

[will go and have a nosey in my books for ya]

[edit] wasnt really thinking was I? The YJ doesnt have a "hoop" and therefore the only place to fix would be to the floor, meaning they must be lap belts.

[edit of an edit] Seems the "up to 92" had the stay, rather than the hoop, and therefore were lap belts in the rear. 93-95 had what is termed the "family bar" which is the hoop with the mounting for the 3 point diagonal version (as in the TJ)

Confused.... ??? Hey its a Jeep thing!!

Hahah I like it. Ya see that one has an aftermarket roll cage. So I need to figure out how to mount rear seat belts and how the hell to make it so they are cert worthy. Hmm if I knew I could do that it would be in my driveway!
