you guys are weak with getting busted by vortex.
Find anyone in the 1.8t forum who is having any kind of drivability issue. Most everyone on vortex says change your green top and search before you do anything anyways. You pm them and say that you had similar problems and had really good luck with changing out your green top...and you just happen to have an extra one for a good deal...score.
its better than selling empty boxes on ebay

I thought you could advertise anything in your signature. That's what the mods told a guy one day on the tex. Is it true then that you can't do that?

Whats the story with these green tops? I'm way out of the loop
a4wdhybrid
October 18th, 2006, 04:27 PM
green tops are the replacement temp sensors for the black tops
they are found on pretty much all 00+ cars
the black tops suck to put it lightly...green tops are ok
pinky
October 18th, 2006, 04:28 PM
price jumped from $5 to $30 the beginning of september
ian (and myself) bought a bunch right before... now we've been trying to move them to give ppl a better price than anywhere else while making some money...
i think i've sold like 10 or 11 of them, which means i have about 140 left.. :grineyes:

So, what if all of us that post on Vortex, but aren't selling Green Tops, put in our signature line "Ask me where to find cheap Green Tops" and we would just send them your e-mail addy through IM. We wouldn't be selling anything, so it should be kosher no? I don't post on there often, but I would be willing to start posting in "what do you think of my new wheels" threads just to upset the system.... :ohyeah:
a4wdhybrid
October 19th, 2006, 01:44 PM
well...
theres always a way around the system..you just have to find it..or you have to find a way to work the system..whatever works for you
i found a way to work the system (i like to think so anyways)
in my sig on vortex i wrote "free green top temp sensors available here! im me" ..ill give them away..just pay $13 for shipping :upyeah:
pinky
October 19th, 2006, 02:02 PM
so wait.. did they disable your IMs b/c of your signature?
a4wdhybrid
October 19th, 2006, 02:04 PM
im not really sure to be honest w/ you
under k0mpresd my im's were blocked, i posted another fs thread, and then my account got banned
under i_g0t_banned my im's were blocked only a few mins after i created the account
both sigs said "green tops for sale"
gr33nt0pmasta is still fully functioning
but to be honest..i dont care..eff them..if they keep banning me ill keep re-registering
pinky
October 19th, 2006, 02:06 PM
i've had 2 threads black holed so far..my sig says to pm me (it may have just been a link to the thread when they got blackholed) but afaik my pms are fully functional.
a4wdhybrid
October 19th, 2006, 02:14 PM

i dont care about them banning me but turning off my im's pissed me off some...douche bags...not like im making $$$$$ of these things
pinky
October 19th, 2006, 02:17 PM
i'm making some money...
how are you shipping them? you know that in a small padded envelope you can just put a stamp on it ($0.39) and drop it in a mailbox.. it weighs exactly 1oz.. with a clip (1.1oz) it goes up to 0.63.. 2 sensors, one envelope is like $0.68
a4wdhybrid
October 19th, 2006, 02:22 PM
we have a ups account @ work....
pinky
October 19th, 2006, 02:23 PM
if you dont mind me asking, how much does shipping run on one of these?
a4wdhybrid
October 19th, 2006, 02:27 PM
$4-5
but like i said..we have a ups account @ work...;)
pinky
October 19th, 2006, 02:30 PM
ah.. i see..
i think its like 0.44 for the envelopes (from staples, i bought packages of 12) and 0.39 for the stamp for me...

Boostin20v (12:42 AM 10-25-2006): please do not get involved with the sale of the green top coolant sensors. remove the notice from your signature before I need to contact the admins.
the kevin (12:48 AM 10-25-2006): i dont understand.. people try to sell stuff in their signatures all the time.. i'll remove it, but i dont agree with it.. is it just b/c it's greentops?
Boostin20v (12:49 AM 10-25-2006): you know Ian is on restricted IM status, you do not need to get involved with his mess.
the kevin (12:49 AM 10-25-2006): this has nothing to do with Ian.. i have sensors.. he has sensors.. i'm not selling them for him. it's out of my sig now..
pinky
October 25th, 2006, 12:52 AM
Boostin20v (12:50 AM 10-25-2006): so two guys local to each other are trying the same get quick rich scheme?? not buying it.
the kevin (12:52 AM 10-25-2006): ok.. i know ian.. he mentioned on a local forum (ncdubs.com) that the price was going up at the beginning of september.. so i bought a bunch, so did he.. we both have a few to get rid of.. its hardly a get rich quick scheme...

October 25th, 2006, 10:04 AM
(12:54 AM 10-25-2006) Boostin20v: well good luck I guess. just be warned that Ian has been banned more than once. If you want to sell these sell 1 at a time and no more. Multiple will get you noticed and topics deleted/points deducted for breaking advertising rules (like Ian).
(12:56 AM 10-25-2006) the kevin: i understand that.. i know ian was banned.. i know he's on restricted IM.. i had a thread and anthony@vmg told me i couldnt do it.. i dont have a thread in the classifieds, just the line in my sig.. not even that anymore..
(1:05 AM 10-25-2006) Boostin20v: If Anthony knew you had the sig line and allowed it then you can add it back. Do not go about posting in CTS threads just so people can see the line though, that is what got you into this conversation, and what got Ian in trouble before (selling outside of the classifieds).
a4wdhybrid
October 25th, 2006, 10:20 AM
thats total bs
he deleted my posts in that cts thread in the 1.8t forum and nothing else was said about it
why i got banned was because i made several sarcastic statements towards the mods in the mk4 classifieds and they got pissed
and the second time i got banned was because of my username, i_g0t_banned ...i only made like 5 or 6 posts..all of them in the 1.8t forum..nothing about cts's
and i tried to sell them 1 @ time..my post said "i have 1/one (that is 1/one/uno for you vortex mods that cant read) green top coolant temp sensor for sale" ...that was when this whole mess started..because im not going to bow down to vortex mods..eff them..they do whatever they want..and its proven here...boosting20v telling you to remove your sig
pinky
October 25th, 2006, 10:22 AM
i know.. i think he's just trying to scare me or something..
i called yesterday about rates on classified advertising.. and its not really worth it for this one item unless i raised the price a bit..
$350/month w/ 3 month contract
$300/month w/ 6 month contract
$250/month w/ 12 month contract
