ZZZema, I don't hate cha! What do they say, "Don't hate the playa, hate the game!" But I don't hate either. If you made a nice profit...so be it. If you want to purchase another smart, I hope you get to enjoy one of your own and soon. For me, I couldn't part with my little guy. I'm just having too much damn fun! Regina

Agree! Hopefully this tendency will be self policing through peer pressure - nobody has to wait for one of the mods to step in; feel free to call people when they cross the line. Too much of this on other forums and absolutely no need for it. Thanks for letting me vent.

I think the tone of response you see is because people are reacting to a post that seems contrived. If you step back and try to look at it and your prior posts objectively you will understand why "I just sold mine and I FEEL HORRIBLE : (" comes across as disingenuous and/or suspect.

Before you call people immature I'd have to say think about how mature the thread is.

Select Ebay's Auto "Advanced Search":
http://motors.search.ebay.com/ws/sea...21&_trksid=m37

Fill in "Make" and "Year" (2008 to 2008).

Then check "complete listings only", which will only list completed listing; those sold and expired without sale.

You will be asked to log into your Ebay account to complete the search.

It could be this one!! No options on this passion coupe it looks like. Could have bought it for 14,235.00 plus the 399.00 doc fee and tax...what is tax in Georgia? Say 1000.00 more? I already added the dest charge so total of
15634.00. Sold for 19,740.00. Whatever ebay car sale fees are?? I dont know. It is possible. I still thought that the post was bragging. If he is really sad, he can just keep it.

Minimum Ebay fee is $90:
http://pages.ebay.com/help/sell/motorfees.html

The difference between your calculated cost of the car and the Ebay selling price is $4k NOT $5k.

Notes concerning how a new auto is taxed in Georgia:.
==============================
1. Sales tax of 6% or 7%; most counties are 7%.
http://motor.etax.dor.ga.gov/motor/r...quirements.asp

2. Buyer also pays a Ad Valorem tax which is a property tax on it's value. I am not able to determine the actual tax rate on the internet and it varies by county. A rule of thumb estimate would be $300 to $500.
