homer said:This guy offered this lathe to me too. I backed out, because he also told me that he plugged the DC motor into the wall outlet and fried the motor.
He also told me that he priced a new motor from hightower for $125.
dafunkdawg said:well homer that is pretty lame that i was completely honest with you about the lathe by telling you the history of it and i also told you that i have built 2 jump break cues with it since the motor has been repaired and it works fine,but that a new motor was only $125 in case if the motor ever goes out.i also mentioned that the motor was not fried , the spped control went out and i replaced it and plugging the motor into a/c put a bad spot on the commutator that was easily fixed.you were not too honest with me when you told me to send you a paypal request and then responded saying your paypal account would not let you send a $900 transfer because you were over your limit.i even asked you if you had changed your mind for some reason.i really appreciate jerks like you trying to ruin things for a perfectly honest seller like myself.also, anyone who has contacted me about the lathe for sale has already heard my story about plugging it into the wall.it was bad enough that you lied to me about backing out on our deal much less try and post something on these boards to try and hurt my credibility.i think you must have just missed out on a good deal because i sold it within a few hours of posting it for sale and made a new friend in the process.
No apology needed. I just don't trust you! .. You sound like a used car saleswoman!dafunkdawg said:dang homer i did not know that you could post such a lame remark and then delete it once you realize you were wrong.i told you that i ripped of the sticker that said "reverse plugs to change motor direction for wrapping " or however it read.the "mid size cuesmith" is etched directly into the headstock and can not be removed.i did tell you in my first email that the bed was 36" and when we talked i told you that i measured it and it is 48".i also told you that my lathe has an indexable headstock which i dont even think is an option on a micro lathe.if i remember correctly i offered the info about plugging the motor in the wall from my own free will.i am not mad that you did not buy the lathe but it pisses me off that you are out there trying to make me look like a liar or scammer -incase you still think that i am you are welcome to check my ebay feedback - my username is the same as the one here.i would be willing to accept an apology and never speak of this incident again
I don't need a used car but if you have an older Model B, lemme know.dafunkdawg said:so i am the used car saleswoman and you are just a flat out caught red handed liar.anyone need a good deal on a used automobile?--LOSER
