I'm in NY and found a condiment holder on Craigslist in Philly. Had been talking the seller for the past week or two and finally got her to get me some shipping quotes. She kept trying to talk me out of the deal saying how shipping ($10 and change) was far more than the cost of the item itself. I told her it was no problem and I was gladly willing to pay. Seemed that it took her two or three days to reply each time. Recently though we were finalizing the deal after I agreed to pay the shipping and even offered to pay her a few more bucks for the condiment holder. Well she gets back to me yesterday and says she has someone local who is a weber enthusiast that is interested so she is selling to him instead. She was quite enamored by the fact that this local enthusiast has 5 grills including a red one from 1977 and she had no idea these were collectibles. I asked if she knew whether this other seller might be a member here and she said she'd ask. I opted to not bother telling her I have 4 kettles currently, am buying number 5 tonight, won an ebay auction for number 6 last night which should arrive next week, and a great member here agented my number 7 for me from a seller in New Hampshire. (thanks again
@603kettle for getting me that simpsons SJ....cant wait for it to arrive so I can start a new thread about that one!).
So if you're the buyer in Philly congrats!....but I also hate you lol.
