What's new

Don't we have a "bitch about idiots on CL or Marketplace" thread?

I've used several 1970s and older shitters, usually they suck.

My brother's 1940s shittah flushes so lazy it's a wonder it doesn't need 20 gallons to do the job.

The 1.85643 gallon units aren't bad if the have the "power flush tm" that about rattles the floor with 500 psi water blasting that 5lb brown trout to the septic.
Old toilet internal tubes get restricted by shit and mineral buildup and quit flushing well. That's why they sell just toilet bottoms.
 
Selling toilet bottoms sounds like cockney slang for prostitution
Pretty sure they installed used toilets when my house was built in 1978. When one of them quit flushing well in the 90s or aughts was when new toilets had the stupid internal tanks so i got a new Made in Mexico bottom section from Homo depot. Shit went down good again. Lots of innuendos for you to play with there.:flipoff2:
 
I'm supposed to go pick up a smoker over an hour away at 5:30. Still don't have the address. We'll see if they come through.
 
Wtf is this? :laughing:

Fat finger.

If I didn't edit what I typed here before I hit Post Reply my shit would be unreadable. My thumb tips are nickels.
 
A guy posted a bunch of brand new takeoffs from his Honda Talon on a SxS classified page I'm on and said he is willing to ship at buyers expense. I tell him I'll take the complete gas tank with fuel pump module, the stock skid plates and the driveshaft. He shoots me a price for the parts that I agree to and says he will get back to me on the cost of shipping from NC to TX in a day or so. He messages me a few days later and said I had to come pick them up if I wanted the stuff because the parts I wanted were to big to ship and he didn't want to deal with it..... :shaking:

JayMcJay set up the shipping of my lt500 and crate of parts to him. He used a hot shotter.
The crate. I ended up putting a big bag over the box inside the crate.

I have the opposite. I list things, no shipping. People beg me to ship, but then back out when they see what shipping costs.

If it's easy to ship it's going on eBay, even with fees I get more money
 
I feel like Facebook turned off my marketplace listings after I offered to let someone pay PayPal. Had several buyers interested in some parts, one asked to ship. I provided a price and said he could pay PayPal to a provided address and it’s been crickets for everyone since.
 
Was I the Asshole

Told the guy couldn't meet until Saturday he reply's with
1708883990972.gif
Ok I’ll get back to you then
1708884003733.gif

I did not read that as "I will buy them" but as "I will let you know if I want to buy them"
Then Saturday evening he asks if we can still meet I tell him someone is coming to get the shocks
Should I just tell him to

He is a shitty buyer and was going to lowball you again when you met him. He told you that when he said “cash” as he offered half of your price. Fuck him.
 
Be happy he didn't wait until he showed up to be all "man, this shit is scratched, I'm only gonna pay $150"

It's really fucking rich to see the same dudes who are so proud to show up and once they're their and the other guy's time is wasted lowball the shit out of people with cash act like whiny little bitches when the shoe is on the other foot. :shaking:

I used uShip to get it set up. I don't have any real complaints about how it worked. Communication from the hotshot doodguy could have been better, but how much texting do you expect from a guy who's job is driving? :lmao:
I had originally tried to set it up via Fastenal Freight, but they have a pretty hard and fast rule about not shipping quads/bikes/cars.
 
Sold a lightly used Honeywell Survivor respirator last night for $80

Buyer just messaged me asking for his money back because the mask is “wrong” for the filters they supply at his job site.

I’m in a good mood and offered a 50% refund of his money in exchange for the mask

Regrettably he picked this item up from my house and I don’t want my tires slashed 🤦
 
Who'd buy a used respirator?
A half mask I’d agree. A +$200 full face I figured there was some value.

I’d probably buy a lightly used welding respirator if I found someone getting out of the trade.

There are probably feces on your drive through food order. What’s a little elbow grease to clean up a respirator

Man, im just now eating taco bell :barf:

I'd buy the shit outta a used supplied air welding mask, basically the same thing
I can see that... change out the head suspension and face seal.
 
Bought a used bike rack during lunch today. Was supposed to meet up with the seller in a local supermarket parking lot. It's a big lot, and busy at lunch time. He lets me know the meeting is on 10 mins before it's supposed to happen. All good, I work close by. I tell him I'm on the way and that I'm driving a grey tacoma with a roof rack. Dude replies back with "Tesla".

It's fawking California. There are Teslas everywhere, you're not that unique bro. I ask for clarification, and get nothing back. Pull into the parking lot and drive by the 6 other Teslas in the lot, but none of them have anyone in them. Next message I get is "I'm here". Homie drove into the lot and right past me (the only grey tacoma with a roof rack in the parkting lot), and proceeded to park on the other side. :shaking:

Nope, not moving. I told him where I was and he proceeded to drive over and park so badly near me that it would have made a 90 year old in a Mercedes blush. I did get the bike rack for stupendously cheap though, so there's that.
