Snarky Sellers...
04/28/05 at 12:57:21

Well, the gas tank I ordered is at the house, the wife has already looked at it and pointed out there is a dent in this tank, that was never mentioned in the auction.

The auction stated, the tank had NO DENTS OR SCRATCHES, except a minor ding (size of a pen head) on the paint on the top of the tank.

The tank looked great online, but there were only 3 photos, the left side, the top with the ding, and an overhead view.

Now... what picture is missing? Why a picture of the right side of the tank.

Apparently, the reason is because there is an obvious dent that was not mentioned in the sale!!!

But wait, you might ask. "What about shipping, did it get damaged in shipping?"

Well after reviewing the physcal structure of the box, my wife assures me there are no indentations, rips, or tears in the box. Though it was saran wrapped and then packed with newspaper around it.

I'll check it again when I get home, maybe even post a picture of the "dent" that wasn't mentioned... but right now I'm not happy.

Sorry, I felt I had to share. ???

I have other pictures, but this is the best one that shows the obvious dent in the side. Just look at how the light warps right above the ava in "Savage"

Besides this and the small ding on the front of the tank (pinhead sized paint chip missing) the tank looks immaculate.

Oh.. the gold "dot" that shows up, only shows up to the camera flash, its not a problem on the tank itself.

WTF??? at its longest point, it is over 1.5 inches long, and its widest point it is an inch wide, and the deepest point is 0.25 inches. It almost seems like it was dropped on the corner of a desk or hard table, from the shape of the dent.

i believe that's a 2004 tank mine came in that color, the same stickers i pried from underneath the clearcoat because i didn't like them.

theres no accounting for taste. what some like some hate, that's why we do all the different things to the savage.

Two emails on Friday, one on Saturday explaining I'd hate to do a negative feedback. Another on Monday requesting information and yet another today. And so far no response.

I'm about to just say forget it and leave a negative.... and this is when stupid me realized the email address I've been replying to, is not the same email that they claim as their main contact.... stupid me for not paying attention and stupid them for replying with a different email account than their "contact" account.
