I want to purchase a set of wheels from a guy there, but says he's too busy to box them and drive 5 miles to FedEx (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)


Is there anybody out here close to there that can pick them up, toss 2 to a box (2 boxes) and drop off at a local FedEx?

I'll pay for the boxes and gas (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Mary Shortridge is in Lincoln, I will see if she gets up that way. It is only about 45 miles. Maybe she will help you out. I think her dad lives up that way.

Uhaul sells the perfect size boxes for 15" wheels (2 to a box) for about $2. each (and I would pay for them). The guy selling the wheels lives within 5 miles of a Uhaul facility and a FedEx shipping facility ... says he's just 'too busy' to box them up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
