eBayhole of the week

I wrote:

Not a big deal, but I think the whole boat, not just the dash is Martinique. Windshield and seat are Martinique too. I suppose someone could have swapped those out, but I doubt anyone cut and reconfigured the Nautique dash with the dual speedos integrated into the fiberglass to accomodate a new dash. Which is ok. Nothing wrong with a Martinique, just not a Ski Nautique.


He responded:

Hey man I appreciate your concern and you being nice about it...but we would 100% not misrepresent what the boat is and we too had the same concerns and had it checked by two repubtable ski boat mechanics and we called Correct Craft. What would your suggestion be as to what we should do? We don't want anyone else to think this. We are 100% that it is Ski Nautique. Thank you. Reg

I got a very nice response that stated he has been told by several that it is not a nautique. He was sorry & did not intend to misrepresent the boat. He was not that knowledgable about the boat & that is what he had been told. I guess it is sinking in.

What's a HID?!? I see that he's added additional information pertaining to his emails. Looks like this guy is willing to admit to his mistake, although appears to be an honest one. (but the "talked to Correct Craft" part still boggles me)       
Perhaps he is not an "E-bayhole of the Week" after all. I knew Pete would get through to him!!!!

Adam, I ment to write HIN and not HID! Sorry, about the typo!

I too got a email back from the seller. Very plesent and stated he would change the ebay ad. Tim's first email must have shocked him and the reason for the sharp reply.

Regarding him talking to CC, I say it was all in the way he described the boat. If he told them it has "Ski Nautique" on the sides then maybe they told him it must be a Ski Nautique! It sounds like he doesn't know where the HIN is or even if it came up durring that conversation. CC would have the records on a 73.

Hi Guys

Well, Well, I'll bet HW never saw that one coming!!

OH GOOD LORD!!!

"The paint is the best thing about the boat and it was done by a good friend of mine and it is the true fire and he threw in a couple skulls here and there"

"Really?? You would honestly waste mine and your time to write me and talk ***************??? Your a ***************in moron pile of *************** if youy would sit there and write me just to say that, ya ***************in douche bag"

With a name like that, I'm not surprised.

LMAO
I hope you're just laughing that one off HW because that is hilarious.

I sent him a polite note too, something to the affect of:

"Oh my goodness, the only thing correct in that whole listing is that it is not a Master Craft. It is not a Correct Craft either. It is a Ski Supreme, which is in no way related to any of the other companies"

He responded with

"Oh my goodness...it says Correct Craft on the Title."

There's another Supreme being marketed as a CC on Craigslist that someone here just posted on the Craigslist thread. Even though these people are stupid, I guess they are smart enough to know a CC has a better chance of selling.

Too much fun.

Hollywood- You having a slow day at work?
You enjoy ruffling these guys feathers way to much!

From my "wife" to the seller:

"Sir, This is your opening description of your boat: "This is a 1981 Correct Craft Ski Supreme". I did some searching for 1981 Correct Crafts and can't find a model that looks like your boat. Are you sure it's a Correct Craft? I'm looking for a wake board boat for my son and he says that Correct Crafts are the best boat ever made. Can you direct me or provide a on line link for some more information on your boat?
Thanks in advance, Diane"

haha amazing how a woman asking the question, & suddenly "he's not sure"...guilt pangs? haha
