I have four 10000 LB lifts on CL for 8000K. A guy talked me down to 6000. I just would like to get rid of them they take up to much room. Old boy came over to get them tonight. He brought 4 big boys with him. I did not like that told him I had a forklift and could load them for him. He went to pay me and only had 4000 said that is all there worth and that was all he was going to pay. He said that is just the way it is. He did not know my shop manager and 4 tech' s were still at the shop. My manager herd me get loud and came out and ask if there was a problem I said not now my tech's came out with him. I did not know they were still there glad they were. I got my 6000. You have to love Dayton Ohio

I can't believe that somebody tried to do you that way.  It's a good thing it didn't happen to me.  I'd have been furious and when I'm furious become fearless.  I'd have ended up dead.
Always move forward. Never look back.

You'll end up dead selling on CL in Chicago. They get into your shop, lock you in and stab you and clean out your shop. Its BS.
I have 100 fish tanks, but two pairs of shoes. The latter is proof that I am still relatively sane. The question is...relative to what?

I have sold stuff on CL about 15 times with no problem,yet.
But you  never know,only takes once.I also don't think it's any more dangerois then  areas i have lived an worked in,and that was a daily thing.
