Shady Is, As Shady Does

5/13/2008

And the saga continues...

I got a call from my friend earlier today letting me know that Shady never called back yesterday, and that he was pretty sure one of his other buyers was going to take the place (at a much lower price). I can't say I was surprised.

About an hour later, my phone rings, and guess who it is? That's right, Slim Shady (I even have him programmed in my phone as Slim Shady, which I think is hysterical). Anyway, he's all hot and bothered because he REALLY, REALLY, for serious this time, has the deposit, and wants to bring it over RIGHT NOW. FOR REAL!!! No, FOR REAL this time!!

I let him know that he pretty much lost any remaining shred of credibility with both of us, and that we didn't want to deal with him anymore because he is a liar and a waste of time. He kept insisting that he was for real this time, and said he would bring the deposit over NOW. No really, NOW. FOR REAL!! I told him it wasn't up to me, and to call my friend and ask him.

After a few more phone calls, Shady finally promised my friend (for REAL this time), that he would be right over with the deposit and the contract.

I have to say that I am totally shocked, because he did, indeed, show up with a check for 2k (that I will bet my dog Jim on, is going to bounce). He has until Friday to close, and I am giving him a .00000000000000000000000001% chance of actually getting it done.

I seriously will have a freaking heart attack if this guy actually closes.

Stay tuned.

Seriously Steph, what game is this POS playing? I just don't get it.

My money. Check clears, he doesn't close. Jim looks like a good companion.

I for one would pay to see the youtube footage of Shady handing the check to your friend. I want to see this guy.

Maybe it's the reality TV junkie in me, but I love the drama.

It does sound like Shady should find a new line of work. Handing out deposit checks & not closing deals is bound to clean out a checking account pretty fast. No?

How many offers made today?
