Anyone ever had a car repo'd[views:2075][posts:13]______________________________________ [Dec 26,2007 5:15pm - SkinSandwich ""] I worked it out with my creditors so I am safe, but just wondering if anyone has gone through that shit. How long do they usually wait before they legally steal your vehicle, ha. |

| ______________________________________ [Dec 26,2007 5:25pm - SkinSandwich ""] Haha, cool. yeah, I got it new and I worked out a deal. I mean, I only have four more payments on the thing. The lease is up in April. I do not think it makes much sense to repo it now, you think?? How come you do not repo anymore man? Did you get a gun in your face? haha! |

He left to africa to see his family and apparently he didnt pay the rent for like 2 months. We came there on this monday we all had off to practice and all our shit was gone. It took the whole day to get our shit back. Fucking sucked. |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 26,2007 5:37pm - stillfuckingdead ""] haha...no man...i actually never had any bad encounters when doing repos. i usually did them late at night...most people didn't even know it until the next morning. i miss it a lot....nothing is funnier than seeing someone come running out their house freaking out as i'm driving away in their car! fun times. dealerships are usually slower to get anything done....so you probably have some time on your side. i wouldn't worry too much. plus if you sorted shit out with your creditors i'm sure you could easily get the car back if they did repo it. |

| _______________________________ [Dec 27,2007 10:36am - Yeti ""] i had a car repo'd. it took a very long time before someone actually came and took it. the creditors were willing to work things out, and kept saying so for almost a year before they came and took it. it was 7 years ago and i was a youthful retard so i didn't pay attention, but a repo is the last thing they want to do. |
| _______________________________________ [Dec 27,2007 11:27am - SkinSandwich ""] That sucks Yeti, ha, damn.That is good to hear on the timing though. I think it would be very unwise to take it this late in the game. If they took it they would not see a dime out of me. LOLsexxorz! |
| _______________________________ [Dec 27,2007 12:47pm - Yeti ""] after they repo, thats when they sue if you won't pay. but really, people throw the word "repo" around a lot, but creditors really do just want their money, so they are willing to work with you. i can't tell you how many chances i had to fix it before they came, and even then, the repo threat was thrown out at least a few months before it actually happened. |
