Not taking sides with LDD he is an idiot. Can’t hold his tongue to save his life.
PS is a bigger idiot. Looking for a bail out form all of OSO for help to his teeny bopper screw up.
Most of you legal and moral experts need to shut the phuk up. If LDD has any brain cells he can sue IB, OSO and everyone involved ruining (may be further, but that is irrelevant here) his reputation due to all this LDD bashing. And all of you LDD bashers and PS supporters, think about a few things.
Many of you are businessmen. Some have employees. You send out invoices. You RELY on timely payment so you can pay your bills, and wages. One of your customers decides that he will pay you later. No matter why. You don’t get the funds you need to pay your employees. You have to borrow money or cash in CD’s. Do you think you employees care? Do you think your suppliers care why you didn’t get YOUR funds, and why you can’t pay your bills now.?
LDD may be a low life for not doing the right think. Right think for whom? Your sorry azz little young idiot who signed a contract? He already has boats (or boats) he is buying a toy. There was consideration, there was an agreement. There was no duress. He phucked up. Plain and simple. All of you morons are just looking for attention on OSO with your idiotic comments. NO ONE KNOWS THE real history of events.
I have yet to see an attorney make a professional post.
The attorneys will have a field day with this, and all of you low life posters may get lucky if LDD’s wife or some one related to him (even in business) won’t sue IB, OSO and all the individuals for the bashing and liable.
LDD could lose the actual case (he won’t) and win bigger and more $ that he ever made if he play his cards right. I would. All of you can “bash” me all you want, but this thread is just sick.
LDD can’t regain his reputation, but he and PS could put and end to this. Why should LDD pay the $12K? Everyone will forgive him? Become best of buddies? Where is the logic and the “reasonable gain” for moneys returned? No where.
LDD needs to offer a reasonable amount to settle. And it’s not $14k not even $12K. Quit dreaming. You guys feel sorry for the little kid, but “little kids” 18+ drive millions worth of equipment and make life and death decisions in the military every day. So forget it. He needs to grew up and learn.
“Reasonable offer” >> $12k minus any expenses and cost for “damage control” for breach of contract by the baby woss PS. (Backed up with documentation) or the difference of LDD selling the boat and his losses/gains due to contract breach.
PS… Think about what you might gain or loose. Quit asking help on OSO, how much to settle, etc. it’s your choice. You walk away anything over $6K, consider yourself lucky.
LDD !!! Work to get this settled. AND SHUT YOUR MOUTH WITH ALL THE BS COMMENTS.!!! GGGIIIEEESSSHHH.
OK. no one likes LDD. Fine. Don’t deal with him. Ignore him. Most of you have no clue about contracts, life and reality. Just a bunch of internet chit heads hiding behind a screen.
Nordic. !!! you can be in so much legal trouble… I would hide until this blows over.
OSO / IB. !!! Ditto.. This thread is totally against your licensing in “public media” it’s not even funny.
Anyone else can say what ever they want about the above. I won’t be reading it or commenting on it anyways, and I just want to go back reading about boats. I have spoken. (and on the light side, this is more typing that I have done in the last decade).. GGGRRRRRRRRRrrrr
