Yeah, my SAE-300 is that or better. A guy would have taken the BIN on
my eBay 260246809026 the other day but he couldn't figure out a way to
get it onto his trailer. He'd "left the noisy ramps at home", damn
him. It has 6 watchers and 333 views so far. I just left eBay a
nastygram saying that I do NOT wish to _require_ Paypal, the fidiots.
And they don't have a box for cash acceptance. sigh


No one knows anything about this welder?


Sorry.


This just in:

A couple has a dog that snores. Annoyed because she can't sleep, the
wife goes to the vet to see if he can help. The vet tells the woman to
tie a ribbon around the dog's privates and he will stop snoring.

"Yeah right!" she says. A few minutes after going to bed, the dog
begins snoring, as usual. The wife tosses and turns, unable to sleep.

Muttering to herself, she goes to the closet and grabs a piece of red
ribbon and ties it carefully around the dog's privates. Sure enough,
the dog stops snoring!

The woman is amazed!

Later that night, her husband returns home drunk from being out
drinking with his buddies. He climbs into bed, falls asleep and begins
snoring loudly. The woman thinks maybe the ribbon might work on him.

So she goes to the closet again, grabs a piece of blue ribbon and ties
it around her husband's jewels.

Amazingly, it also works on him.

The woman sleeps soundly.

He wakes from his drunken stupor and stumbles into the bathroom. As he
stands in front of the toilet, he glances in the mirror and sees a
blue ribbon attached to his privates. He is very confused and as he
walks back into the bedroom, he sees the red ribbon attached to his
dog's testicles.

He shakes his head and looks at the dog and whispers, "I don't know
where we were, or, what we did, but, by God, we took first and second
place."

Evidently you missed the first part....

It sold on Ebay for $610. To a guy who didnt have any money to pay
for it.

When the seller contacted him...he replied.." I can maybe make
payments?"

Seems the buyer is no longer a registered user......

Id bought stuff from the seller before, have been in his shop several
times, and when he told me the story..I mentioned that if it didnt
work out..Id be interested in buying it.

He called me the other day....shrug

Or are you talking about Larry's auction?

I couldnt find that one by using his numbers

It did, but for different reasons. Gunner was referring to his auction
he won, not the one I put up.


I had it in my watchlist?


Those uckerfays at eBay canned my first auction because I said I'd
accept a trade, then they notified all the watchers that it was
cancelled. Oh, joys!

I relisted it, 260247916481, yesterday when I found out and have had
100 views/5 watchers added since. Everyone's waiting for a steal, I'm
sure. One guy would have bought it for the $500 BIN if only he'd
remembered to bring his ramps last week. Drat!

Ig, maybe you could persuade someone (Lee, maybe?) to trailer it out
to you when they're coming east to buy more/other machinery.

I doubt that we can find anyone to do it cheaply. Anyway, if you do,
send me a note and we'll talk.

eBay has a very stupid auction cancellation program. For example, it
routinely cancels auctions that say things such as "like Snap-On"
because it considers them to be trademark violations.

So a few of my auctions were canceled because I said "Like New", due
to eBay considering them trademark violations.

So now I say "Llke New" instead.
