It's too bad because I don't think anyone is trying to annoy you, they are just contibuting to this thread that you started to try to help you and tell you what has worked HERE in the past and how to minimize a giant thread full of questions. Saving you from 100's of emails all asking about those quirky things on the vx. Thinking it would take you less time just answering it all at once, and having it on the site as a reference to many potential buyers.
    I guess for anyone not interested in his VX, let's just leave this thread, hope he sells it and moves on.
    No I did not join just to sell. First started poking around here back when I bought her in Oct 2010, but lost that account. I went through some serious VX collision depression after accident. Put her in storage untill I had time, Money, headspace etc. until I figured out what to do. Then recently signed back on after deciding maybe I should sell (for the right offer) rather than fix, and add to the savings for another. Of course having a hard to come by, very rare parts car was also the thought. Definitely not annoyed with members only trying to help. Im a comedian and drew some good material and laughs from it.

    If someone showed up at my door and pulled out that list, after the first question I'd say, "Hold it right there. Take that list, roll it up real tight, and cram it! Buh-bye." Followed by the sweet sound of my door slamming.

    BTW, I'm from over in northeast PA and hike the mountains and flyfish the streams in the Catskills. We just had a new owner join up late last year from up the creek in Chichester.

    Where do you board the most? Hunter or Belleayre?

    This list thing just reminded me of Sam Malone on Cheers when he was selling his Corvette. He wanted it to go to a dedicated Corvette lover and actually had a list of questions for potential buyers.
    It went like this-

    Sam Malone: This'll be pretty simple, here. Just a few multiple choice questions.

    Dennis Hammill: Great. Shoot.

    Sam Malone: Number one. Its high noon. You're driving
    in Harvard Square. Parking is limited. Do you:
    A. Park in a handicap zone.
    B. Park in a regular spot under a tree.
    C. Drive around till a space opens up.

    Dennis Hammill: C.

    Sam Malone: [rants] What, are you nuts? I cant believe it, man. It's
    a trick question. You don't drive this baby at high noon, man. Sun
    damage, bucko. What the hell's wrong with you? What do you want to
    do, oxydize the paint? Get out of here, you make me sick. I can't
    believe it, he wants to drive my car, high noon in Harvard Square...

    We should have a list of questions like that for sellers to ask buyers if they want their VX to go to a good home.

    Lol, I actually had a similar experience when I bought my OEM nose mask from another member. We spent about 20 minutes on the phone while he "felt me out" to see if I was only interested in buying it to (a) hoarde it in my closet for later sale or trade or (b) flip it on eBay. Fortunately he believed me when I said I wanted to actually use it, but even then he asked me to post pics here.

    There is a reason we say "welcome to the obsession" to new members.

    That Cheers bit was from Season 8, Episode 5, circa 1989. I just found it online and made an audio recording of that scene.

    It's a Windows Media Audio file, so ya probably need a Windows Media Player for it. 1:16, 917 KB-
