| GREAT Crazy Freddy's Experience!!! I saw a listing on eBay for a brand new 2008 CBR1000RR for a price (with no reserve) I couldn't believe was actually real. The listing went on to say that there were no hidden costs, no set up fees, and if you were buying the bike in NY all that you would have to do is pay sales tax.
Anyway to make a long story short, I called Jeff at Crazy Freddy's out in Massapequa, he confirmed everything in the listing and told me to come see him and we could work out a deal.
From the moment I walked in, everything was beyond my expectations. The staff immediately greeted me, everybody was super courteous and friendly, the floor was full of bikes and the shop appeared to be very well stocked. It looked like a place where people took pride in their work.
I spoke with Jeff, he confirmed everything in the listing and we worked out what I feel was a GREAT deal. The process was super smooth and fast. We signed the paperwork on Friday and I picked up the bike Saturday morning. If I had anything to say that wasn't positive it would be that I wish they would have wiped down the bike before I rode out, it was a little dusty/dirty, but its such a minor issue, I feel bad even bringing it up. I bought my first new bike ever and I'm so happy I could sh*t!
Now I just have to get rid or my 96 900RR and an 01 XR650L that's not running, I'm keeping my NT647GT, I got too much time invested to ever part with it.
Thanks Crazy Freddy's, you guys were great!  |

WTF is wrong with you? Happy customers. We have thousands. We go for 2 loans on the same VIN? That's BS and slanderous. What proof do you have of this??? NONE!!!
Factories offer accessory financing. Why would you try and ruin a happy customers new purchase experience? |

If they're "known" for such things provide some links.
If you "know" people then provide their names or get them to step up themselves. They should be happy to if they were screwed so badly...

$1000 etchs? Don't think so $5000 discount policy to cover negative equity and it comes with a free etch, yes.
Eliot spitzers niece? He has bigger problems
And yes we required to know a customers name before we negociate a price
Msrp is available to the people who don't know their own name
As for the bbb, you sell 13,000 bikes in 3 years, let's see how you do?

Walk into a Honda auto dealer and see if you get a price
Dealers were not put on this planet to just take orders from idiots like you |

| Re: GREAT Crazy Freddy's Experience!!! so how did you get "scammed". So far all I heard was a salesman asked you for your name.
"mso in hand". No, your right you don't work or own a bike shop. |

| Re: GREAT Crazy Freddy's Experience!!! Crazy Freddy, I don't think anything you say will make any difference to this guy.
Considering the amount of customers you have had through your stores in the last few years, there will unfortunately always be a handful who are disgruntled for some reason and will shout their heads off. Unfortunately the satisfied ones don't shout quite so often.
I just feel that toptaz has jacked poor Nychawks thread, in which he tried to tell us of the great deal he got on his new bike purchase, to have a rant.
Toptaz really isn't being fair to the original poster. |

Dealers were not put on this planet to just take orders from idiots like you | Really curious here Im in Europe and no matter what country you walk into there is in general a price tag displayed on the bike, then of course you can negotiate amybe a little discount. I am so confused as to why there is no price label on your bikes or as you intimate nor on any Honda dealer in the States???
Also if I check usa ebay, bikes have prices on them......can you help me out here thanks

I just feel you are now unecessarily taking away from the pleasure he is experiencing in his new bike as you seem unable to let the matter drop, and continue to jack his thread.
Let the guy enjoy his bike now and revel in his good fortune of getting a great deal.. |

| Re: GREAT Crazy Freddy's Experience!!! I dont think Toptaz wanted to **** on this thread...It sounds like he was trying to help my dude out by warning him...I've heard a few stories also.
I've also been around and seen the crazy freddy is doing what he can to turn the reputation around. |

Coming on here and spreading _stories_ with no proof...
It strikes me as a little odd though that the poster has joined two weeks ago to post kudos for the shop but hasn't shown any other interest in the forums for his new bike?
