Mark, Standard reply........I sold my last one yesterday for (wait for it) and it will have gone for 2/3rds of the going price.
Its easy to sell stuff cheaply you dont have, this makes other yards look bad when they quote a higher price. When some turns up to buy the goods they dont have "I just sold it yesterday or this morning" Yeah!!!!!!!!!! I cop this stuff all the time when I am trying to find stufff for customers. When they have it in stock, it is always 150% of the going rate when they havent got it Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Cheers, Feral Errol <http://www.datrats.com.au/> -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of mark krawczuk Sent: Thursday, February 06, 2003 11:48 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: screwed around again.......... hi......
