I do not currently keep a twitter account - as in 'current' being the key word here. Perhaps I would explain it further it your comment was not accusatory, but I would hate to assume others are not thoughtful enough to understand the conversation, or is in need of hand holding as such. May be your standards and mine are different. Your call however
People I have met and talked with there and through other channels know that this is who I am, so that means my actions are scrutinized far more than any mere anonymous screen name in the forums.
Once again, I don't understand how you can possibly say I am over valuing anything when in my previous deals, I actually have loans based on deals lower then the current avg. It is a starting point of the negotiations, and it seems you cannot separate this concept from a set in stone condition, which it is not. Furthermore, the fact that most other deals calculate collateral based on immediate condition makes it neither justified or fair - these are my personal terms and position from where I hope to begin the negotiations, and you would do well to understand this concept before making any accusations because you find it to your 'disadvantage'.
I mentioned the collateral name, and the monthly avg value. If you want to find out its current position, no one will have any trouble looking it up in simplest ways along the usual exchanges. I do not presume to spoon feed and treat my clients as if they cannot be bothered to do so or is incapable.
If you do not like the fact that my starting point of the negotiations begin with me trying to minimize the disadvantage to my position as much as possible, then you counter it with your position and we work towards a compromise. It's called initial negotiating position - something that seems alien to you since you are essentially saying everything I say and wanting to get the best out of the deal is 'unethical' and 'wrong'. I do not believe I have ever closed doors on the possibility of counter suggestions and compromise - but you presume to say that you can demand certain conditions while calling my own negotiations an 'unethical practice'.
There is nothing I have with held, relevant or irrelevant - unless you are seriously claiming that you need everything literally delivered on a silver platter. I gave you the name, monthly avg, and amount of the collateral being discussed. Anyone with half a brain can easily see what its current value is, what 'monthly avg' means, and that volatility of the markets makes 'current' value about as worth as its possible x2 value next hour - hence the practice of taking the monthly avg. If the current values were x3 then it was weeks ago, then as I have done in the past I would avg down my collateral to match the overall market trend. It is interesting how you do not take notice of those things while picking out nothings and distorting my intentions and words to smear the deal
With this type of entitled mentality that justifies your own pursuit of profit at the expense of childishly vilifying another, it's a little surprise you think you can say any of what you claimed and hope to be taken seriously. You repeatedly claim 'this is standard' 'everyone else is doing this' 'says you' 'unethical', yet I see nothing about understanding whether you know what negotiating means or wanting to compromise - only that you see a deal that is less advantageous than usual and presumes to say that it is 'unethical'.
Everything you have said simply boils down to you not liking what you are being told, and instead of discussing the deal, you want some kind of instant gratification and sweet deal on a silver platter. Not to mention you are flat out lying about not being told relevant information - no one in their right mind will consider your claim justified unless they are saying you somehow deserve to be offered up every possible scrap of information and their cousins as an offering (why, because you are anything more than an equal party in a negotiation?), something that is easily found out if an individual can type or surf the web from the most obvious sources.
Is it any wonder that the forums are full of scammers and paranoid mods, when every single fuck who expects everything for themselves mouths off and accuses others of lying? If you think my initial starting position is very disadvantageous, then either work towards a compromise or simply decline the deal. To bitch and moan wailing about 'unethical'
or 'scam' because you don't find things to your advantage is simply ridiculous. If you were more interested in sealing the deal and (as you are expected to do, why not you can think for yourself to do basic leg work on your own) simply found out about the current market conditions, there would have been no problems. Instead you presume to demand to be catered to and be covered for every excuse you would otherwise use to accuse others of 'lying'.
It's too bad that you find the terms not to your liking, or that you are incapable of basic negotiations and haggling, but that is your decision. Just as it is mine to state my initial position to my relevant advantage and work towards a compromise. Being greedy and ignorant doesn't always fly when you are a customer or a client, but you can't admit that you are arguing with an entitled mentality here that squeals 'unethical' whenever you find out that the game is a 2 player affair
Serious offers and negotiations welcome
