    So it's a bit of a habit to browse the local craigslist now and then.
    Come up with several good deals, 4 burner Viking propane/electric range for $550
    32' fiberglass extension ladder for $50, old miter trimmer for $40, desk/workstation for free,
    8 lateral filing cabinets for the shop for $300, sold three of those for $100 each and kept 5.

    Latest thing I couldn't pass up: Michelin signs measuring 4' x 18'
    Yes, that's right. FOUR FEET BY EIGHTEEN FEET. Yes, I said "signs" - there are two of them.
    They were free, and yes I know that they are both the dumbest and coolest thing I've scored off craigslist.

    Maybe someone will trade me one of these for some other sign I can hang in the shop.......

    I was just looking over there, I may have to build a light box for it to get a really good price.

    The son of someone I went to school with since grade school collects signs in Illinois. He has them all over his barn on display. Even has the old scoreboard from our high school football games.

    Anyway he is probably 26-28 and I gave him a neon sign I had. If you are interested I could share his info and maybe you can work out a trade?

    And best deal I’ve ever gotten from c-list is my daughter’s ttr125. Cost me 50 bucks 5 years ago, and she’s still running the piss out of it :rock:

    You can let him know I will be getting rid of one eventually. If he is interested have him sign up and send a message. Thanks!

    Paid $50 for a 46" Lawn tractor that only needed a new battery, spark plug, and oil change. Cut my yard with it the last cutting season. Let my neighbor use it for his yard too. Cuts like a champ

    I thought he just made t-shirts and yellow wigs. Learn something every day.

    Oh, and the location given is in the Phoenix free fire zone, so best bring your 10mm and several homies.

    2 Brand new Yamaha 2000’s with Pigtail connector and covers… When I went to get them he said one wasn’t starting.. he was asking 1800 which was good being they were brand new with covers and pigtail.. I declined since one wasn’t firing.. he chased me to my truck.. I offered a grand.. he took it for both… Got home and noticed the fuel vent on the one not starting was closed… Used them the last 6 seasons with no issues…
