Have you ever not done business with another COAR member because of the opinions he/she has expressed on the forum?

No, but to be fair, nobody I strongly disagree with here has put anything up for sale that I wanted.
But hey, I did buy a gun from Kidicarus once :p
Yes, I've dodge people I didn't want to deal with. Usually I make up excuses to be polite about it. Haven't told them to just pound sand yet.

Yes, but not necessarily for their opinions. Rather it's due to the way in which they present them. There's enough a-holes in my life. Saving a few bucks isn't work meeting another one. If there was somebody who presented a different opinion than me, but in a calm and reasonable manner, that wouldn't keep me from dealing with them. It might make me want to talk them down a few extra bucks though. :)

Only the ones who bitched about price gouging, while the same time selling shit for 1.5-3x the price. it's ok for them but no one else,TFB.
Other than that if it's something i want to add to the pile o crap, who cares.
It's the internet you get butt hurt about something move, on or move out.

I put the smilie face in my post. I wouldn't harm anyone. I like all you guys. Hell, I even thought JM was a great guy and even had a little respect for Nynco for having the balls to express his opinion here. Even though he's wrong about everything.

There's only a couple guys here I'd not consider buying or selling with ... but not because I disagree with them, but because I think they're probably idiots (and possibly "prohibited persons") ... hell I disagree with Nynco, but I'd do business with him ... yeah, he's wrong about everything ( :p ) but he doesn't seem dishonest.

Not necessarily for their opinions but some of their comments, the way they present themselves, or the way they conduct business. I have the right to choose who I sell to and I excersise it regularly.
I don't sell anything to you assholes...

Unless they are gay.
On a serious note, I don't do enough business to run into that issue; and no one has turned me down yet. The person that has been the most upset with me is Sniper, and I'm pretty sure we're practically best friends that have never met. Well, there was ColoradoLuckyDog, but he hasn't posted much ever since he got banned.
If it makes you feel better, Irving... I would refuse to deal with you. [Neene1]
I had one around 2007 or 2008. He is not really an active member.
I would do my best NOT to do business with people who flaked/welched on a deal in the past. Glad that I had no issues here.

Definitely, refused a sale. Ignore a few PM. But there are way too many positive things gained from this community to even worry the bad apple.

Nope.
Like a few have said it really depends on how they "present" their opinions. If they seem fanatical to the point I think they are a danger to someone then probably not. Otherwise, I figure to each his own.. But thats "opinions". Behavior is another.
There are a people I won't deal with on here because they agreed to a deal or at least a meet-up and rather than be man enough to say they've changed their mind, which I would respect, they just stop communicating with me on the deal. So, I won't deal with them again and would love to leave them a mild negative feedback to that affect. But again thats behavior and not an opinion….

Nope I tend to grow a pair and get over it. Unless they are a liberal then I will always be pretty bitter. But have yet to run into that problem here.

I feel the same way. I am adult enough to realize that people don't believe the same views I do. I actually enjoy listening to different opinions... Hey, maybe I got it wrong? I'm always learning and looking for more info. Plus I like to think I can pretty much get along with anyone if they are civil.

Let me put it this way. I work on cars. People who want that work done have money. I like money. I don't care what they believe, only that they have money.
Does this make me a bit of a whore? Sure. But not a cheap one.

There is a member here who posted something I may be interested for sale... but they way that member presents themselves made me think twice before - and decide not - to contact them.

I really don't let a differing opinion bother me, that's what makes the site great. And opinions aside, we have a common link: they need their items worked on and I am happy to provide the services.
And I find out chatting that while in some aspects we may differ, we actually have a lot more in common than we realize.

Then he'd be a habitual drunkard and couldn't own any guns.
Seriously, though, I've refused once, with a guy whose mental stability I wondered about...he made a few comments that sounded like threatening to kill police, and I thought, "Self, if he shoots someone with that gun, it's my name on the 4473, and I don't want to take that ride with him."
That, and AirbornePathogen is going to kick my ass someday.
