Unbelievable!

[JDD]

While at work yesterday, I was online searching local estate sales (on my break of course - wink wink). I nearly fell out of my chair with a heart attack from what I saw!  Scrolling through some pictures I see a 26" 60's Westerner! It looked mint! I immediately start putting together my plan of attack for Friday morning.  Should I go there now and sleep there? I'm sure GregS has seen it already – lol. After I get home I still can't believe what I saw so I go to look at the picture again. The picture is gone! What happened? Was I hallucinating? Did someone convince them to sell it before the sale opened?
This morning I decided to call the Estate Sale to see what I could find out. They inform me that the executor of the estate and a family member showed up at the house yesterday eve and wanted the grill and only the grill. Legally he could not give it to them but he did have to sell it to them. They paid $1000.00 for it! It was brand new never used with the owner's manual still attached to the handle! It turns out the family member was also an inheritor so would most likely be getting the money back.
I knew it was too good to be true. So close though!
The picture is gone or I would post it.  Did anyone else see it? Is the new owner a member? Maybe it will still show up here soon.

Yes,  I saw the grill.  It had a pamphlet attached to the handle.

Pics or it didn't happen.  No one right click saved?

just wait, it will be on ebay in a couple weeks. 


IF, and that's a big if, there haven't already been some shenanigans.
