Comments:
hen I saw the 2 year old ad, on OfferUp. I inquired a few days later he said yes. So I made a obligatory low offer. He said yes, but had specific pick up dates and all that. I agree to meet like week later.
The day before, I get a message from him telling me that the saw looked worst then when the photo was taken. My reply was it doesn't matter, I'll take. He said no I don't feel good about it I said I'll poy the original asking price.
Well after that he never replied, so I let it be. But he never took the ad down. So a few days ago, I messaged him again, listen I want it don't throw it away. He said sure come and get it tomorrow. So I showed up today, at his specified time. Was ready waiting for me.
Took me an hour to take it apart and fit it inside a Nissan note.
That's my story, for a Uber cool 1950s bandsaw
