Bah, useless people!

Have listed my '83 Sunline T-1550 on craigslist. I've exchanged calls with one dude and a number of emails with two other dudes who both promise to call, but nothing yet. This is delaying my egg plans! Grrrrr.

Don't mind me, I need a place to vent, and I'm certain to get at least a few sympathetic ears here!

Actually, if it doesn't sell, we'll remove the bedding/cushions, fill it full of dryer sheets, tarp it, and wait for spring. Probably go campng in it again this year anyways.

Hope all you good fgrv'ers and doing fine!

Frank

Best of Luck Frank...I dealt with alot of tire kickers while selling boats in the past and got beat up for price on my red home built gypsy caravan... but I tend to do the same thing while buying used...always want a great price!

Frank, I'll send a check from my bank in Afghanistan where I'm serving with the CIA. It will be for the full amount of your asking price plus $1000 for you to send on to the person that will pick up the trailer for me after he receives your $1000 by Western Union. LOL, have you got that response yet!!

I use a product called Fresh Cab to repel mice, also a lot of poison under the trailers and cars that I have in storage.

I have a tool compartment on my tractor that the mice love. I put dryer sheets in there. They made the sheets into their nests, than chewed my wiring.

Somebody else did, not me. There are plenty of other tips on the web, but we've done this for two years with nary a problem.

I also have a trailer for sale. Check out this reply I got a couple of days ago..

"Hi there, Thank you for getting back to me.Can you assure me that it's
in good state and that i will not be disappointed with it?I'm ready to
pay your asking price and to be honest, i want to buy this for my Dad
as his birthday gift. I a marine biologist that works on the sea at
the moment. phone calls making and visiting of website are restricted
but i squeezed out time to check this advert and send you an email
regarding it so my only quickest payment option is PayPal as i can
send money via PayPal anytime.Since I'm requesting this transaction to
be done via PayPal, i will be responsible for all the pay pal
fee/charges on this transaction and if you don't have an account with
paypal,its pretty easy, safe and secured to open one. Just log on to
www.paypal.com. I hope we can make the purchase as fast as possible? I
have a mover that will come for it once payment clears . i will like
to see more pics i look forward to hear back from you soon. details
that i needed are below Your PayPal e-Mail Address : Full name: Firm
Price: Your cell phone number: God bless you ."

Turned it over to Pay Pal and it was verified as a Scam.
