Cool yer jets Brian.....he says best offer gets it. To me the seller is getting rid of shit that belonged to his gramps....no nostalgia, no feelings of oh dear, woe is me.....he's doing the show me the money bit. There ARE people out there that consider their parents and g-parents as PITA's that are just a savings account for them waiting to die and open up.....that's my opinion of this ad. IF and when my parents pass....my brothers and I willl meet, divide up what we want or has been willed to us and have an estate sale conducted by a pro auction house....nothing as tacky as placing an ad on the internet.....

Hi Manfred,

My goal in posting this was to lend a hand to this guy in trying to determine the value of the car. (In the spirit of helping out a fellow 'teener, much like help I've received from this board....)


Unfortunately, as soon as I posted it.. I realized I'd just thrown a load of chum into the ocean and in a couple of seconds.... some sharks would show up....

I just didn't realize how much stomach growling goes on in sharks when you pull their "food" out from in front of them.....

(gee, I hope they won't take a chunck out of my boat.......)


I seemed to have missed the tone in the sellers original message that he was selling grandpa's "shit"..... ( I didn't realize I'm wasting all the money each time I flush the toilet........)
