I told him that's not gonna happen. Nerve of some idiots. The guy that bought it gave a $500 deposit and then didn't hear from him for 2 weeks. I was going to call the next guy in line to come pick it up. I sold an old 9ft single to the 1st guy last week who was getting back into sledding. Exact measurements in my ad . Guy drives over 2 hours across border to buy trailer. Has no idea if his extended sled will fit. Comes with no tape measure or flashlight. Borrows both from me. On phone for half hour, sending wife out to barn to measure his sled, and he STILL is unsatisfied if it will fit! Now wants me to knock 200 off price so if it doesn’t work out he can make profit for his troubles.

It takes all kinds.the guy that bought my single only asked if a long track would fit and I told him it"ll hang over a little bit. He didn't even haggle and said to make out the bill for the full amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Blackstar Posted November 11, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted November 11, 2018 My weekend here. My ex in-laws are moving to town from their farm and back when my son was born I sent my foosball table to their barn for storage as it was in the spare bedroom. That was 25 years. My son and drove the 2 hours to go get it yesterday. They also gave me 2 canoes and a gum ball machine. My son got a chest full of tools that belonged to to his great grandfather. The foosball table is hurting after all these years in the barn. Worst part is the once chrome rods are now rusted. I’ve cleaned on with my wire wheel but what can be done to keep the rust from returning? Im assuming I’ll have to paint them but then they won’t slide the same. Maybe some type of oil that won’t end up on everything. Any ideas? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll take a deposit with a committed date as to when they will return to pick up. i won’t hold anything without deposit. most driveway deals are done on the spot though.
