Title: Karma, I think I'm at the end of the ride for a while
Post by: glrasmussen on August 01, 2014, 06:37:32 AM
Been on a Karma high for a couple weeks. Started with a diamond in the rough find. It hasn't been posted yet. I passed that on to member, it was logical to do, as he has the passion and collection to support that find. We made a trade that made sense to both of us, after all, they are just painted metal... ;)

76/77, now patiently waiting for a pre-76.

Also came across another find end of last week, wasn't on my bucket list, but $15 for a WSM? Who wouldn't. Cheaper than buying the charcoal ring that I was about to purchase for the RK...

Both great scores. The WSM is a give away can't beat the price.

I thought it was a typo and was supposed to say $150 which is still a good deal... $15 is just crazy!

Sweet! And that red looks stunning as well!

Trust me, I thought the same. I handed him the $15 and he said thank you very much. I was anticipating that he might have had a typo...

I've been dying for a WSM craigslist score let alone $15. They're  rare up here (Long Island/NYC) and the people who have them, hold them. Someone posted one as part of a garage sale and we emailed about it but they stopped responding. I'll keep on kettle smoking while I wait and watch. Congrats on the score.

Thanks Jeff, we enjoy our property. The plan is to get them all together before winter. Lots of hauling to gather them up...

MacEggs, so very true. It like Turkeys or Feathers for me... Was lots of feathers until recently, hit the lottery now. So it will be back to feathers for a while, I'm o.k. with that.
