Chris Spratt has kindly been keeping me up to date with the "USA auction Stuff", as I'm not on the DML. I enclose some of the salient points. I did say that if there were any money to be made, then some USA dealer would have got in there first. I also said that it could all end in tears. I'm sorry to have been proved so correct. Poor Ed Uding in Holland must be well P***ed off! Chrispy......MERRY CHRISTMAS all, I'm glad you all held on to your 4k's! ----- Original Message ----- From: "fivetwofive" <CBL302@xxxx> To: <dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, December 23, 2003 8:00 PM Subject: Re: [DML] Prototype Delorean AGAIN! > Yes,they were sold before the auction ended,I had countless offers to > sell indivutal parts,and quite a few OFFERS WORLDWIDE(for the lot), > (as far as the Netherlands)(I was NOT into it to make a quick buck,i > just needed to make sure the cars got a good HOME,otherwise I would > have let the auction run,and see How high it would go)(and now they > DO HAVE THE BEST HOME)Orignally I took a Deposit on the person in the > Netherlands,But will be returning/returned their Deposit,as the time > and DISTANCE involved in the move,could NOT be worked out,in the TIME > I have left to remove the cars,so that the Cars/parts were sold to > someone on the east Coast(at this time I will not say)BUT he IS on > the DML,and is within driving/towing distance from my place here in > Connecticut,so there should be no problem with removal of > cars/parts,and I KNOW(and took his word that at least 3 of 4 cars > will be completed)And like me knows these cars,like the back of his > hand.(I just never had the time to finish) > > Regards > Claude > 00570 > soon > vin#00000 ----- Original Message ----- From: "deloreand" <ed@xxxx> To: <dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, December 24, 2003 12:49 PM Subject: Re: [DML] Prototype Delorean AGAIN! > Well if you tell the story like this it sounds like you did the best > for the cars. > In the other way I, Ed Uding from the Netherlands, feel robbed: I > had a good deal with you and settled it with a $ 2000 down payment > to confirm our deal which you accepted. 12 hours later you mailed > and did not call, letting me know that you sold the parts to Rob > Grady and because I could not pick up the parts and cars that soon ( > beginning of January). > Nice if you don't contact my to ask, as a matter of fact I would > have had it all out in the first week of Jan. > What is left is a loss of two air plane tickets to New York, you > knew I had them before you made the second deal with R.
