RE: BEWARE!!!!

[mhassett]

Thanks for coming forward with this--I went to Florida LAST APRIL to Mr. Berry's house and we MADE the DEAL and AGREED on a FIGURE and I gave him a Check for the Deposit and Delivery was to be when the Restoration was Completed. The car is done and has been done and (3) Weeks ago he asked for MORE MONEY I went MORE MONEY and on November 16th he e-mailed me that he was checking his schedule DELIVER the Car to me (I was EVEN letting him USE MY TRUCK and MY NEW TRAILER for Delivery.) ALSO I was PAYING his Air FARE!!!! I did hear some rumors of him trying to sell it from out under me BUT He DENIED that and just spoke with my Wife and confirmed the car was OURS. Now he has been AVOIDING Me for Days. Last e-mail was 11/16 Please HONOR OUR DEAL James Berry and at LEAST have the DECENCY to call me or e-mail me. MONEY-MONEY MONEY is the ROOT of ALL EVIL---This is NOT Right--as this car was MINE in APRIL.....I am NOT MAD at any other Board Members that he might have contacted as I am SURE you guys did not Know all this.

Mark,

As you know you paid me to travel to Florida, paid me to examine and authenticate the the blue Yenko Chevelle, and later to look for a replacement car for Mr. Barry when he stipulated that you would "Need to find me a replacement car". You then again paid me to conduct a nationwide search for a listing of several types of prospective cars that Mr. Barry had provided to you. When I found him one of the cars I E-Mailed him informing him of the find. He stated he would want to replace the Yenko when he sold it to you, I then informed Mr Barry of the general location of the car (67 BB Indy Pace car) and a discription only. You later told me you questioned Mr. Barry If he found the 67 camaro to be to his liking. You then informed me that Mr. Barry stated to you that He had attempted to call the owner of the car I had located for him-several times- but could not reach him... . This seems really strange as I never provided the name of the owner or a phone number of where to call. Stay far- far away from this guy no ethics. Mark, looks like you wasted quite a bit of money on him and got nothing in return.

Mark, If you have a substantial deposit I would be more than happy to go collect for a nominal fee. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

Isn't Mr. Barry a member of this site ?

Mark, I had to do a "quickie" post before. Had to leave because I keep score at the high school wrestling meets. Heres the story. I was told James may be interested in selling his car, I e-mailed him and asked. He returned my e-mail and indicated an asking price of 140k. He then e-mailed photos to me. We negotiated a price. After all this he mentions to me that he promised Mark H. he would give him first shot at the car. I said fine, let me know. He also said Mark would probably not be interested in an amount over 100k. I said if Mark passes let me know. He never once mentioned the car was held or especially that there had already been agreements made. I have not heard from him since. This transpired the first and second week of November. What a punk. Sounds like he needs a a$$ whippin. Sorry, still pumped up from the wrestling!

Dave, Oh MY GOD--We AGREED on $100,000 last APRIL!! DIRECT QUOTE from HIS E-mail--11/08 Mark, A big collector offered me $130,000 for the car. I am getting tired of him calling me about it--if you want contact me and lets work something out Right Away before the word gets out and this gets out of hand. Dave he asked for MORE MONEY and I went MORE MONEY and he ACCEPTED (again) and said he would check his schedule to see when he could Deliver the car. 11/16 DIRECT QUOTE from his e-mail--Mark I am still working on my schedule, I will try and have it ironed out by the first of the week. Dave, that is the last contact we have had with him. Meanwhile there was another board member who told me James was trying to sell him the car also. Well this member said Mark Hassett is looking for a Yenko Chevelle and James told this member that I came and looked at it. Mark

Sounds very crooked to me.I am like motown,I would go collect my money or my car!! and maybe a litte ass to boot!
A deal is a deal,especially the way I was raised and where I come from.Hope all works out for you and you get the car you want.

Mark, I asked James what it would take to buy the car and his response was 130k. I never agreed to it. As far as bugging him about the car, we talked once, and he e-mailed me 4 times!

Dave, I don't know if this went thru so I'll say it again, he never said a name, he just said a big collector, then right after that he asked for More Money.. I APPRECIATE your HONESTY!! Thanks, Mark
