That guy doesnt know what he's talking about, and I think its pretty chickensh%# of him to post that since he's selling the same motor on here. Stick to your guns I sold that same motor with a blown head for 3 grand.

its funn when people think they know what they are talking about i have proff. just call Mercury and ask if they had problems with 99-200 optimax and for the record i own a repair shop and also im not selling a 225 opti im looking for a 250 xs for one of my many boats. I was just looking to help not flame.
So what's the LU worth on that motor? How about midsection, compressor, VST, ECM, etc.? Once updated, the early Optis were just fine, and I'd say the motor as a total package is worth considerably more than $1K.

When did this turn into Twitter? Let the guy sell his motor. If he's asking too much, nobody will buy and he can adjust the price on his own. But you never know...

Not trying to be funny guy. Your the one who hijacked this thread to begin with. I have watched this from day one. You stepped on your crank here. Then you go saying your sorry because this thread got jacked. Wake up jack ***. You hi jacked it!

If you are so professional and helpful, you should have handled it in a more appropriate way. Try a private message next time.

How would you like it if someone was at your business telling all of your customers the guy down the street is cheaper and better.

You stepped on your crank!

Again good for you.

If you wanna save face, admit on here you f'ed up and quit acting like such a tool. Who cares how big you are and how much money you make. There is always someone who is bigger and badder than the next. So who cares.

Just based on this post and how you handled yourself, I would never do business with you.

Still wont admit you stepped on your crank. Oh well. Hopefully your customers get to see this thread. It should cause them to think twice about the integrity behind the business you represent.
