Seems his house is worth $912K according to Zillow.
Ah, come on. What's 88K among friends?

But I agree, Snowman was on a perpetual meltdown.

I locked it, but didn't get to it before he was p3wn3d. That part was funny. His original post was not.

Alas, poor Snowman! I knew him, Horatio: a fellow
of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath
borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how
abhorred in my imagination it is! my gorge rims at
it.

And of course with no basis in reality.

I know a little bit about the car parts industry. When snowjob started posting a few weeks ago that Wayne is an idiot if he isn't making 3X to 5X markups on his parts (i.e., buying a part wholesale for $1, and selling it retail for $3 to $5), I knew snowjob had gone completely off the deep end. That was complete lunacy, even by his standards.

I've uncovered a whole lot of interesting information about our dearly departed friend - amazing what a few google searches will turn up these days. . . Let your fingers do the walking.

I guess you can screw around with Waynes mind but not his business. Or another way, call him anything you like but just do not, not call him to dinner...he gets upset at that.

He11 if Wayne wants to sell me parts at less than cost or at cost...yay verily.

Just out of curiousity: How much has snowman spent with PP? If you can't disclose due to privacy...that's fine.

"Oh, and I also think that it's important to point out that he has never purchased a single item from Pelican in his life." Wayne

That's the answer, it was in the original post up top from Wayne!

I hate seeing someone banned. But never ever bite the hand that feeds you! What an idiot.

OTOH, the few bannings I've seen here, the person deserved it.

Hey Wayne, maybe you should setup a database with the amount purchsed over the years and the number of posts. That way Pelican can see the $/post someone has with Pelican.

Don't forget to include a certain 1982 SC in my calculation....

Good riddance. Now Snowman can go back full time to reloading cartridges. I had never seen someone so obnoxious, arrogant and ignorant all at the same time.
(And I am french, that should mean something...)

Right wing wackos are out when they touch the 3rd rail known as the pocketbook.

The rules have been clarified.
