In my continuing effort to clean out the Stacks O Stuff, I occasionally put things on Craigslist.
I posted a set of 4 tires and rims for pre 1966 VWs..the open center type. $50 for a set of 4, just to seperate the wheat from the chaff. Good tires and wheels.
Guy emails me, wants photos. So I sent em to him.
He apparently lives over in Bakersfield, a 32 mile drive.
He then asks if I can deliver them. Free.
I say my wife is over there a couple times a week, but he is sure asking a lot for $50.
He emails back all pissy, that it costs him $50 to drive the 64 mile round trip, and the tires and rims arent worth $100 to him.
So I email him back and tell him that its a bit much asking my handicapped wife to load two tires in her car, deliver them, then make a return trip with two more, all for free.
But since I want them gone and he was willing to spend $50 on them, Ill give them to him free, no charge, gratis if he drives over and picks them up, as I dont often see too many vehicles that get 3 miles per gallon on the hiway and it would be fun to look at.
Ive not heard from the fucker yet.
Geeze..some peoples kids..... Hummm...sounds like a couple folks here who have been offered free machines in good working condition who wanted em delivered several hundred miles away.....
