I wonder if “Suzanne” above (a must cheerleader post reading) is completely bankrupt by now? Just about every single isold it franchisee is in debt far beyond their wildest dreams. What a moronic business plan from the very beginning. Sometimes it costs me more money than I make just to auction something on eBay from my own house!

Ken Sully posted on motorcycle forums as FastLaneKen. He had just bought a brand new red Ducati 1198, which I think is about a $20K bike.

He was just talking about his new Ducati, and was selling his Busa for $9K here: http://www.ducatispot.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12705

Here is an account of the fatal accident by the friend who was riding with him at the time: http://www.ducati1098.net/forums/showthread.php?t=13110
He concludes: “Ken leaves behind a beautiful wife of many, many years, and a young daughter of only 17. He was 58 years old.”

It’s especially sad that Ken left such a legacy of ill feelings behind him, at least among his former franchisees.

In commenting, please be respectful of his family.

There is a God! Ken Sully died in a motorcylce crash last night at about 10pm! He was one of the nastiest franchisors out there!

I have been purchasing things off ebay for about 4 years now, and I have never encountered such a problematic piece of human excrement as I have with this particular isoldit seller. He sent me a Marantz 7300 receiver (33lbs) I had one some weeks earlier, in a box that would have been used for a hat or packing peanuts box. This being a very sensitive piece of equipment one would think he would have used a heavy duty box that you can purchase from a UPS store or the like. Well after many attempts the ass-h–e still will not respond to my e-mail attempts. Needless to say with such a fine packing job, the unit was not working properly and came to my door with holes in the box. Does this company still exsist? If they do, are they getting their franchisers straight from the parole boards early release program? Some of these folks from e-bay, why are they allowed to sell? Is e-bay considered to be a reputable company any longer? I guess if the inmates make money for you, they should allow them to run the asylum.

Interesting. It’s built with free blog software. Think we inspired them to get into blogging?

No mention of the franchise program, and all the old articles are gone.

It looks like iSoldit is trying to change its image via it’s website. In fact it’s a brand new website. Now we can’t determine the number of stores left.
