Re: [MBZ] Tuna time!

2006-07-13 Thread Jim Cathey

My automatic eBay Unimog search has coughed up an auction for that
$17 Harbor Freight diesel compression tester.  Anyone care to watch
with me what the bidding frenzy will get to?  Winning bidder is also
on the hook for $8 shipping, so if bidding goes to more than about $10
it's caveat emptor time!

Bidding closed at $64, plus SH.

I'm in the wrong business!

What's next, foot-pump air compressors as used on Jaguars
and Rolls Royces?  String, as used in hospitals?  (No wait,
that one's been done!)

Sometimes with sellers a German phrase is more correct:
treten Sie den Verkäufer in den Nüssen
I say seller beware.
