You spend an afternoon poking around in the storage garage looking at all the stuff I have stored and then you start asking me if I’d sell my extremely expensive bed to you. You nag me and you nag me and finally I tell you that since it’s only a year old, and about $2000 new, you can have it for $500. You argue and talk me down to $200. Fine. Cool. I agreed to that. And what happens next? You remove the bed from storage and say “I’ll pay you in three days.” In ten days you give me $25 and this pattern continues over the next TWO MONTHS. You always had some vague excuse. “Oh, this guy owes me money and he didn’t pay me,” which to me is douchebag for “I suck with money and I’m a complete failure at life and I don’t have the money for the item I have already taken.”
Around this time I hear you getting into screaming matches with someone in your apartment. Always about money. She’s screaming for you to give her money and you’re screaming that you don’t have it. So not only do you have my bed and I haven’t been paid yet, I have to listen to your white trash domestic squabbles every night of the week because you’re a chronic fiscal loser who blames everyone else for your problems. But wait! It’s even better. You got evicted didn’t you? And off you ran into the night with my bed, still owing me $75.
Dude. Let me give this to you straight. YOU’RE A LOSER. A pathetic, useless, fuckup of a loser. It’s not like you’re 20 or even 30 years old and being this pathetic. You’re, what? 60? A haggard 50 maybe. How the hell have you not learned basic money management in all that time?? How the hell can you INSIST someone sell you something that you have no means to pay for?? It’s one thing to be tempted by someone selling an item and then fail to pay. That’s pathetic. But you INSISTED I sell you an item I hadn’t planned on selling, then were chronically unable to come up with the money. So you’re clearly not only a fuckup but a stupid fuckup. I hope you read this and get all pissed off because yet one more person is calling you out for being a giant douche. Consider this your head’s up to finally get fucking organized and get WHAT YOU OWE ME ready. Because… —I’m Coming for My Money or My Bed

Y U give them bed without payment first?
why would you get bullied into selling a two thousand dollar item, for two hundred?
Do have any other nice stuff you don’t want to sell, but will end up selling due to your lack of testicular fortitude? I’d buy it straight cash.
” lack of testicular fortitude”
LOLz of the day!
That, I believe, is two in a row Donk.
i’ve done three in a row, it’s quite the rush
That’s what she said?
What can I say, you’re a funny fellow.
YOU let him talk you down from $2000 to $200.(bit of a gap there, really)…he “insisted” is the word I think you used? = strike 1
YOU then let him take the bed WITHOUT receiving payment in full first = Ssswwing anna miss! Strike 2
YOU finally, come onto a public forum and have the gall to call HIM the pathetic loser! lol =
Steee- rrrike 3! Yer out!
I don’t suppose you wrote up any kind of a receipt, either, did you?
Good luck with a. tracking down someone who “ran off into the night”. (He could be anywhere by now), and then;
b. getting your money or your bed back, without proof.
Lessons learned, OB. Lessons learned.
Man, of all the Bitches that deserve being destroyed by The Coastie Committee, this is the one.
Holy fuck, $200 for a $2000 bed you didn’t want to sell? Who is the loser, again?
6 off topic posts so far….hurr durr lets treat the comment section as our own personal verbal jerk off forum. Some of you people make this website so shitty.
omg! u gusie r liek so funni!!!!!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
LOLZ of the day 4 sur!!!!!!
Fucking wankers.
It’s ok. We still love you Zilla and will take all your lashings as they come.
Be still my beautiful flower.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
And YOU think THEY have not learned some ‘basic money management’ in their 60 or maybe 50 haggard years? Uh-huh. Who has the $2,000 bed for less than $200? They may not see your rant as they may be out getting another ‘deal’. Bonne chance getting anything else out of them, other than perhaps blood.
Maaan, OB, you got fucked harder than a shoplifted ho.
I just want some fair site moderation. I love all of you….sexually.
Also so I dont post two off topic comments in a row….
$2000 for a bed? My god. I own a queen sized bed which I bought brand new for $800. It’s made for sleeping on so why pay all that money?
Also….in my defense….I’m slightly medicated today.
I lied about sleeping on a queen….I sleep on some hay by the bay.
What they said OB. I was at the ripe age of 23 before I learned cash and carry….and don’t trust anyone over the age of 40 who seems like they can’t handle money or still schlepping along making minimum wage.
Did you at least get a receipt so you can take him to small claims court?
i always wanted a kingsized bed, but i don’t think we could get it into the house
HAHAHHAHHA! Ya fucking dummy! Does Sobey’s allow you to do that? No. How about the convenience store down the street? No. Why? Because they know they won’t see you back with their money – at least anytime soon. That, and they’re not FUCKING DUMMIES like you!
A bed is an investment. There’s nothing like a good bed, that is 1 thing I know for sure.
You know what else is an investment? Strippers. Now hear me out….Every time you tip a stripper, you are helping pay for a future nurse or doctor. We ALL know that every stripper is just trying to pay her way through medical school.
Ah Zilla, you make a good point. Next time I go to the strip club I’ll have to tip higher! We need to support the future professionals. Mmm hmm.
Even with the hint of sarcasm I’ll accept the validation you’ve given me Donk.
I’m desperately trying in vain to get my troll cred back….I’ve lost some of it. Sadly, I’ll soon be posting only legit comments and constantly reporting anyone who breaks any site rule.
Face it Zilla, soon you’ll be eating eggs benedict with us. Don’t fight it.
What sarcasm?
😉
Just jumpin’ in here to mention that most people learn their info on finance from their parents (if at all).
IMO, budgeting and basic money management should be a required course to graduate high school.
And yeah, OB, sorry, you’re at fault here… but I get why you’re pissed…
You say he took the bed out of storage, your storage, and told you he would pay you in three days. How did he get it out? Is he the super? You let him take it out of there I assume. Lesson learned OP, get at least 50% up front. On second thought get 100% up front.
HRM could have used him on their negotiating team. The team they had fucked up royally.
Zilla, it’s a slippery slope…btw, do you like your eggs poached hard or runny?
needless to say, that you were dumb, to let them move it without at least half cash up front. if you go to get bed back, it will be in disgusting shape, with dog shit and cum stains all over it too. est thing to do, is arrange for small claims court, provided that you can show proof that this unit was actually yours. no reciepts, or other paperwork, then you are fucked. been there and done this a long time ago.
next time, COD
good luck stealin your funky bed back
I’m allergic to eggs….which means that classifies as a threat!
Comment reported!
I think ops saying that it was a USED bed once bought for 2 grand. I’d NEVER pay sticker price for a jizzed-up bed covered in a year’s worth of drool 😀
200 bucks is also insanely cheap though too.
