If you want to flip, great. Use eBay or CL. But taking advantage of Wayne's free forums and preying on the community of Pelikaners is the shady part.
If you want to be a capitalist, that's great. Using a comminuty forum and taking advantage of the good nature of the site owner is the not-so-great part.

It is two different things if someone is professionally buying and reselling cars and using Pelican to that end.
On the flipside (pun intended), sometimes you come across a deal and while it isn't really what you are looking for, you buy it and immediately resell it because you can make a little profit.
I consider the latter a single flip. The former is being a flipper. They are two different things. And the dirtiest of flippers are the ones who lie about their agenda to make a deal. Those are the ones I despise. Otherwise I don't fault a guy for finding a deal and cashing out on it once in a while. That's not being a flipper in my book.
