That's O.K. Neither does the seller, apparently. :-)
Note the following excerpts:
================================================== ====================
This item MUST be picked up at the San Francisco International Airport
- we CANNOT ship this item.
================================================== ====================
================================================== ====================
We charge 8.25% tax for New York State residents or if the item is
picked up at our warehouse.
================================================== ====================
================================================== ====================
# This item must be picked up at our warehouse in Romulus, NY 14541. We
require an appointment made at least 3 Days prior to your arrival.
================================================== ====================
So -- where is it? San Francisco, CA or Romulus, New York? :-)
Mind you -- if it were not for the apparent rust on the ways, it
would look like a nice possibility.
They seem to be equally confused as to where another item is --
auction #3825555679, which they are calling a radial grinder, but which
looks to me more like a radial arm drill press. (But I could be wrong.)
Harold -- have *you* ever seen a grinder like this one?
Enjoy,
DoN.


This is a classic scam like you find on craigslist. Ask about payment ect.
and you'll quickly find out.
