AZ folks does this look kinda funny CL find

the ad was removed by the author but what was this all about? sounds like he just had a bunch of tailgates?

 

He's gotta SWB one now. I text him for shit and gigs...He told me to make an offer so I said 50 bucks...he replied with " This thing is like new and they cost 450 - 600 new so its 200 OBO"


It is a little weird...Get em Curt!

 

^ what is the link for his most current post?....Nm I found it

http://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/pts/2146421199.html

 

Go on phoenix craigslist. then click on autoparts, then type in tacoma and you will see them...

Not sure what "will fix new tacomas" or "Drak Blue Toyota tacoma tailgate " or " sliver Toyota tacoma tailgate" means in the ads??

Yeah I found it. Dude says he got them from a junk yard. I said I do body work and when I do customer cars I need to document the VIN the body panels come off of if they are not new. I said thats all no big deal what was the junkyard and I will call them. He said "I dont know". This dude is a thief for sure!!!

 

GET HIM CURT! I dont really feel like having my tailgate stolen... do work son.

 

Wish I could do more guys..not my jurisdiction and all I can do for now is pass on the info to those that work that area..this type of thing takes time to build a case. We have to make sure all i's are dotted and t's are crossed before we can present the case to the county attorney.

 

I've got to say, I'm not usually a big fan of the police but I truely despise thiefs! Bust his ass Officer. Then let us know how it goes down.

 

I made him a few offers on the gold one when he first posted he always came back with $200 firm then I asked how he got all of these he just stopped responded so I just started to flag him. I guess it worked his ad is gone.

 

I did the same thing...I offered 50 bucks though for the SWB one

Not gonna lie, I would've bought it too...but he said 200 OBO

 

For $50 I would have bought it too!

 

you guys both support thieves?

 

When I responded to him he only had the gold one. After the 3rd tailgate it became obvious what he was doing that's when I started flagging him.

So no I would not support him...

 

I guess I came late to the party but none of the links work. Does anyone have his phone number or location?

 

yes please, hook us up!

 

someone needs to bust this guy IF they were in fact stolen. you'd think someone in the PHX area that had a tailgate stolen of one of his colors would be a member here. who knows though.

but he said on all three ads that his friend got rid of it and gave it to him. i doubt he has three friends with tacomas that got rid of the tailgates.

 

agreed

 

My grandfather-in-law had his tailgate stolen off his 2008 Chevy Silverado about 8 months ago. He didnt know what to do as factory replacements were ~$1300 and insurance/police reports were no help. I told him I would monitor Craigslist as I was sure I would find it. Well, I monitored pretty intensely as I'm a craigslist addict, and after 7 months i kinda forget about it. Browsing Denver's craiglist (travel there often and 400 miles to the north) the other day I go to "AutoParts", and before I type "Tacoma" I notice the 2nd post down says "White Silverado tailgate". I think to myself hmmmmm better click on it. Sure enough....has the EXACT pinstriping from grandpas tailgate...(was a unique blend of turquoise, yellow, and red pinstripes). Anyway, immediately called Denver police and they said they needed more evidence. Shame....someone got it for $350...a steal in many ways.


Lock your tailgates people, law enforcement doesnt have time for these things. I'm investing in a pop-n-lock, in addition to the first gen feature of non-slide off tailgates like the newer vehicles!

 

We need to Punk that bitches ass!

I really don't like vegies but they're good for me...
