The area behind the rear door on a four-door car. This area is part of the quarter panel just behind the door and in front of the rear wheel house.

Well I sent you pics but no reply back. Other forum members; is it wrong to ask for a deposit before I cut a body part out?
Just curious; because I can see wasting a couple sawzall blades, time and effort, and then a person not wanting it.
Thanks.

May I quote from your last PM (10 days ago?):

"I sent you 2 pics from my phone email. I'll have to take trim off and get more for you.
Thanks."


Have not seen any more pics since!.

I presumed there was a good reason for lack of the specifically requested photo - rust behind the trim.

If you guys have trouble making sales - examine your courtyard first.

A promise made and not kept ?. what do others here think - is this a red flag?.

If I was you I would ask for full payment before ruining the vehicle. Which you may receive a reply like "I have to check my bank account to see if there is enough money to pay". This is only my opinion as I have had many requests until it comes time to pay!

Well; I never removed the trim because a lack of interest on the other party's side. The pics I sent had no rust.
When I suggested a deposit before cuts were made there was no acknowledgement or agreement.
I'll get more pics, I have nothing to hide.

dog leg

This was also sent to your email. You asked how do we get this moving.
Well, like I had stated in a PM, I have to have a deposit via PayPal before I make the cut.
I seen your one pic with cut lines, but you had said you have more pics. I had sent you my home email to get your other pics for a more detailed view of cuts, but never got them. I ned to know how far in the cut is made. Let me know so I can invoice through Paypal or whatever.
Thanks.

Be very careful with body parts that must be cut from an existing vehicle. The buyer will almost certainly want material that he does not receive because the communication on such a project is never sufficient or complete.

This will only lead to more aggravation than it's worth.

The communication isn't satisfactory at the moment, and you haven't even reached the point of using the saw.
