''can you put 16.5" tires on a 17" wheel?"

 

[Begster]

I have a ton of stuff to sell, but I despise dealing with people.

Already 2 outstanding people from craigslist about the bumper I put up. 1st asked if it came with the winch. What part of "bumper" implies "bumper and winch"? 2nd offered me half of what I was asking "because I'm a distance from him" and told me he can get one off amazon.

Just posted some stuff on the trading post, can't wait to deal with even more people.

Yea no one knows how to haggle anymore. I was getting super frustrated with people.
They just ask what's the lowest you will take. That is not how it works. I put a price you counter offer and I counter that offer. We find a middle ground and we both win.

 

[kastein]

Yeah, the guy who bought the first NV4500 I sold this year tried that, "what's your lowest price" and I'm like "make me an offer."

Then he tried to screw me by going "alright here's 900" and handing me 800. Like I'm not gonna count a wad of cash a total stranger hands me... he was so embarrassed he just threw another hundred at me when I called him out on it.

Congrats on paying full price, I would have taken 800 or probably even 700 with a little haggling. I don't like being lied to though, so he paid full price.

Smart people with amazing scientist knowledge abound on the trading post

how about the just parting out his rig. and the only pic he includes is of the new rig he bought, which is the reason he no longer needs/is parting out his old rig.

or the guy who wants 1000$ and 4 tires and wheels to replace the ones you bought, for 4 33X12.5r15 KM2s with about 65% tread.

Im looking for a tailgate. I ask for condition, price, and location. I get a photo with zero info from one person, and "I have one on the cape" "also have a bed" from another.

 

[kastein]

Some guy wants to trade his partially used 35" tires for 38 or 39" tires with good tread

good luck with that buddy

Are you counting the Taurus that "goes OffRoad well"

 

[kastein]

no that was funny as shit and I left it up. If it was deleted, someone else did it :gee:

That taurus had been wheeled harder than 99% of the overly chromed brotruck compensationmobiles and hack ass mud trucks on the trading post.

I am awed by this post

I have a smith & Wesson MP 15 in 556 and also a brownings 12 gauge shotgun for anyone who can be my hero...... I seek an individual to transport a mobile home (12 foot by 68 foot) that is already on its own wheels from central maine to northern maine, (near brunswick going to stockholm). I will give both guns to anyone who is able to transport. Also have 2 30 round mags to go with it, I will pay for the 30 dollar permit to move it, just need someone who knows how to move such a big thing..... need your own truck to move it, I assume it must be bigger than a 1 ton for the job......

It's so maine it hurts.
