God damn, what an ass. Tell him the bike is sold and then add his email to your blocked senders list.

What a stupid fuck. I doubt the guy's banker told him that (it is possible, though). What he probably said was something like "the most I can loan on that bike is xxx"

I see this all the time. I make it very clear to the customer. My loan policy says I have to go by NADA loan value. However, the retail on the bike/car is xxxx. That means you will need a down payment.

Isn't typical loan to value ratio like 90% max? I know used cars are financed at 100% a lot of the time, but used bikes? Seems like a bad idea for banks to do that.

You can't just go in and get a personal loan or line of credit? It took me about 20 minutes to get a line of credit. I can use it for whatever I wish, new vehicle, hookers, blow, vehicles for hookers on blow..

Sounds like he needs a bit of an attitude adjustment and a lesson on how buying/selling works.

And definitely watch your house and your stuff.

Yeah you can, but wouldn't your interest rate be higher because it is a non secured loan?

I don't think mine is much more than 5-6%.

Yeah, usually closer to 80%. It's good to have the NADA subscription because it is a documented "loan value" that already has the retail discounted.

Yes, it is risky for anything to be done at 100%, especially toys. There are mitigating factors such as deep, perfect credit or lots of verifiable income.
