People might think I'm crazy, but this is the second time I've made this distance trip to the same area (for different kettles). 

Both times, I had an address and an appointed day & time.

Both times, I just got in the car in the morning & drove out there without calling to confirm.

I just showed up at the door at the appointed day & time.
regards,
Hal

So, you drove about 2-3 hours one way to buy an old bbq? Does anyone here think that is completely idiotic?


I didn't think so! Most "normal" people think that would be completely stupid, but us... we think "Great job"

I love this place!

You are talking about the part that people here would find a perfectly reasonable thing to do.

I figured the part that people HERE would find crazy, is that I leave in the morning, drive all the way there, & show up on their doorstep at the appointed day & time WITHOUT calling the seller to make sure they didn't back out of the deal.

That's not crazy. That is a normal thing for us Weberheads to do.

I always guessed everyone calls before they leave, "to make sure" it didn't fall through.
