For being "26", your reading comprehension skills are that of a 3 year old.
Quote : | "I AM NOT TRYING TO MAKE MONEY!" |
Quote : | "I AM TRYING TO USE THE RESOURCES THAT I HAVE (DELL ACCOUNT AND BEST BUY ACCOUNT) TO GET THE CASH I NEED QUICKLY." |
Did you even go to school? Whether you're having a positive gain or negative gain in cash, you are making money by selling product. Product that you don't even own, mind you. (this is NOT about the BestBuy cards).
Here, let's ignore the whole BestBuy card thing, as that was never even brought up. You are saying that you are using your resources (Dell account - your words) to make some quick cash. Now, explain to me, how you can sell Dell equipment (for a LOSS!) when you don't even work for Dell? UNLESS your "hookup" (which proven in posts above costs more) is giving you money to sell his product.
Don't get mad because I'm letting everyone know that you are overcharging them through your "hookup" just so you can get some *cough* quick cash *cough*. How hard is it to understand that you can't sell something you don't own? That's like me starting a thread, telling everyone I'm selling YOUR car to make some quick cash.

i highly doubt you could beat his price." |
When did I ever say I had a great hookup? I said "Btw, I actually work for Dell and can order that above before any discounts are even applied."8/11/2006 2:52:12 PM |

Dude you are dumb as rocks.
I have a dell account. I have a large credit limit on that account. I charge to that account these computers. I then sell them to people for about 20% less than I paid for them. These people save money. I get the cash I need. I still owe the money for these computers because i put them on my dell account, however, my immediate cash need is more important to me than losing a little money and I will have the cash to payoff the credit in about 45 days. Like I said I have a business opportunity which requires that I get my hands on cash quickly. Lafta has bought computers from me before. Ask him if it is a ripoff. He has repeatedly told you that it is a good deal.
I do not have a hookup. However I do get a bit of a discount. Nothing anyone else couldn't get with a small business account. I own a small business and have about $35,000 worth of credit with dell. The real discount is the fact that I am willing to sell them for a little less than I paid for them and take a loss b/c I need the cash.
Now... you are a dumbass.... go away.

Also,
You are right about that one post. It seems that the price you posted is less than what I had calculated. However, it is quite possible that you left one or two components out. This could have been the difference. It could have also been that we ran them on different days as dell is always changing their promotions. You should know this since you work for them.
I can tell you that everyone of the prices I have quoted people is less than what they could get if they bought it themselves. Not b/c I have this great discount but because I am willing to lose a little money to get the cash I need now.

Then don't get mad for me posting better prices for the exact same thing you are trying to sell to people, just because it's on a different division. Nine times out of ten, the prices on SB are jacked up anyways for the exact same thing on the H&HO side (just with a different name).
Who wouldn't want to save money by doing something themselves as opposed to paying someone more for the exact same thing? 8/11/2006 3:11:15 PM |

raven,
I have no problem with you listing prices.
I had a problem with you telling people that I was basically ripping them off when I am not.
However, I am not sure how it is possible for you to be able to sell the product for less than me considering I am actually taking a loss on it.
Feel free to compare quotes. I will beat your prices b/c I am willing to. 8/11/2006 3:33:27 PM |

you're missing something here raven...
he has said why he's selling things cheaper than he buys then for. hes said it in this thread and in his other one. i dont know the truthiness behind that explanation but I dont see a reason to call him a liar.
the problem isn't his explanation tho, its his prices. i think his prices are higher than the normal dell specials which we have access to...which i pointed out above. the only reason i could justify going through him is if i wanted a certain workstation or a certain high performance laptop or something and was about to pay retail for it...then i might be able to get it cheaper through this guy. without that tho, i think the standard wolfwebber can get better deals watching the bargain boards and normally buying through home (as pointed out above). 8/11/2006 3:37:23 PM |

The prices that I have given people have all been well below what they could get through any promotion. The only one you have seen is the one I posted on here. The others have gone to the peoples email. 8/11/2006 3:48:45 PM |

support is also 10x better on the SB side compared to the H&HO side. i have personal experiences with both sides and SB has always been better. so even if prices are jacked up, u get it back within ur support if u need it.8/12/2006 12:15:14 AM |

I picked up an $800 gift card from Packman79 for $720 (10% off) which was awesome because I took it, went back into the store, spent it on a laptop. This guy is legit. Thanks!! 8/17/2006 12:54:33 AM |
