If the cars were on the guys property then it would be. In unincorportated pierce county you can not park your carrs on the street even if its in the front of your house. Johnny law gave us the ok to move them while they got tickets...

Re: operation repo: jet ski repo

What a load of ****. I've always wondered why these people don't call the cops on them & some of them aren't in prison. In CA you if you make it out to your vehicle you can legally prevent the repo guy from taking the vehicle. If some repo guy came to my place like they do they'd be picking bb's out for a few weeks.

I welcome the cops when I'm out there, it makes my job easier. BB's...lol. Try that with a guy that has a cwp like myself, it would be suicide by stupidity by the very sight of a gun....real or not. :rolleyes: If that guy isn't IN your home, he can shot you dead and get away with it. Keep that in mind anytime you pull a gun....real or not. It's all the same in the eye's of the law.


of course there's the other option of paying your bills so the repo man doesn't have to come for his property. after all it's not your's if you haven't paid for it.

Preciously.

Really? That's an option? Thanks captain obvious. By the way, it's not his property- it's whoever holds the title. The repo is more of a collection agent.

Exactly....take at look at one of your titles with a current lien, see the lien holder section? They have more power then you over that piece of collateral until it's signed off on. The bank is the one that shells out the $$ to buy the said property...it's not yours until you have fulfilled your contractual agreement, or better know as your final payment, not payment #24 out of 48, but payment #48....or whatever your finial payment is.

Some of you guys sound like the deadbeats I deal with everyday. It's completely baffling to me how many people think they're entitled. You gave up....no scratch that, you never had the complete ownership of that financed piece of property when you "purchased" the said financed property, because you didn't actually "purchase" it, you "agreed to purchase" it from the bank IF they shell out the cash to buy it up front. Does it suck that if you miss payment #47 on a 48 term loan that the bank has the right to the property AND all the money you had paid to date including interest; yes it does, but that is what you "agreed" to when you signed the papers. It's nothing but business to the banks, This we know to be true :(.

Re: operation repo: jet ski repo

Ok, here are some thoughts:
1) Never buy something you cannot afford to pay cash for (house excluded)
2) What kind of idiot take his own family to do this job
3) What kind of idiot takes "most athletic" people to do this kind of job?

Oh, yeee, it is reality tv ..... bs

Re: operation repo: jet ski repo

sorry repoman207 but when I was younger I was a couple of times the dumba getting his car repoed. However I was perfectley willing to let it go and hand over the keys if asked but I have never sean a real repo man that was dumb enough to go and ask for the keys. in fact I knew it was coming every time but still never saw the repo man, why you ask, cuz hes not a moron looking to make a tv show out of some suckers bad day.

Quote: is it really fake? i'll admit i watch it pretty often. sometimes it seems like it might be but does anyone really have proof that it is?





Look At those people doing the repos. Look at how they act. Look at how much time they spend at the scene.watch them put thier hands on people what company would ever have those kinda people out in the public representing them? They cant stand on two feet and talk without getting out of breath. The proof is in the pudding.

Oh I've been there myself I can assure you, but the key factor is you & I would hand it over if confronted more or less.

My point in my post was to the fact that most of these guys have an attitude of entitlement if you know what I mean.

They're "Reenactments".

Re: operation repo: jet ski repo

and what reenactment would be complete without "embellishment"

Very true.

Is the sister getting fatter or that just me???

I actually thought she looked different the last time I saw the show. Granted the words "Hideous" & "Repulsive" come to mind. I can't believe Froy was married to that!?!? I have to wonder if that also is a reenactment with "embellishments". :eek:

good information, expect this part. 100% incorrect. Lets say you do get it repo'ed at payment 47 of 48. The bank will then sell it, and out of the procedes from the sale, they will take what they are owed yet on the loan, minus fees. Whatever left is still yours, the bank will cut you a check for it.

Granted this doesn't really happen that often, but it is the law.

Well yeah....I didn't get into the after math of it all, but it is far from being 100% incorrect.

There is always less my fees :D (An easy basic repo with 20 days of storage runs for $1,200 to $1,800).

Then there is auction ready fees (detailing). I think they charge roughly $250, but I'm not completely sure.

Then to add insult to injury it gets sold at auction, which means it can & will go for .25 to .50 on the dollar. I see $20K vehicles go for $8k to $9K all day long, and that's if it's a desirable vehicle to begin with. I watched a loaded like new 08 King Ranch Super Duty go for $11,800 + fees last Thursday.....that's a $45k truck! :eek:
