  • Car wash idiots stealing posts on Craigslist???

    Yeah, I get a call from a local detailer today who tells me that he just noticed several posts that look exactly like mine, but with undercut prices on Craigslist this morning. I work very hard to make my posts professional and I think it is rediculous that this guy is lacking so much creativity that he can't write his own post! What a total human being! [Edit: Non-family friendly language removed -Mike Phillips]

    I had my girlfriend call him while I was on a job today and ask him a few questions. Man, I didn't know that bananas made wax. This guy says that he applies "banana wax" to your paint and headlights and it will last several years, but he doesn't know for sure. He also told my girlfriend that her car needed to be buffed out with a "sand compound." I'm not quite sure what that is, but apparently its good stuff.

    My girlfriend asked him what PH balanced wash was and then he directly hung up on her and never called back.

    What an idiot! These people make us look bad!

    Sorry about my rant! Thanks for reading!

    Feel your paint, err... I mean feel your pain, seriously...

    At the same time I had to edit out a few things just to maintain a civil atmosphere...

    Thanks for understanding and sorry to hear someone is stealing your work. This has happened to Joe aka Superior Shine so maybe he'll have some advice for you?

      You can complain to Craigslist and have the bananawaxer's posts removed for violating their listing rules which includes provisions to keep people from hijacking your content.
