I have to share !!
I found this Burb Wednesday night and and called the owner and as soon as he sent the pics I called him back and said I'd take it. Then he drops the bomb.. Another buyer from out of State is supposed to fly in today ( Friday ) or tomorrow and make the deal and have the Burb shipped home. Anyway if this guy doesn't show up by tomorrow ( Saturday ) night, the seller says its mine.. So close yet so far !!!!!!!!!!
I'll post details after I find out if I get it or not.

Re: I have to share !!
I called the seller today to see if he had heard from the buyer as to what time he was flying in. The seller told me the other buyer said he didn't want to come today because of the 405 Freeway being closed this weekend but he would wire him the money on Monday. I should have asked if if he got all the banking info to do the money transfer.
If I get it my plan is to fly down and drive her home...

Re: I have to share !!
Hope you can get it. Thats a super nice ride. Can you offer him cash in person? Maybe create a reason for him to feel compelled to sell it to you. Paypal depsosit or something?

Re: I have to share !!
I do really appreciate the support from you guys. It is 10 PM here and I am at work. It's 9 where the Burb is. I haven't heard from the seller today so I just called his cell and home numbers and got no answer but left messages on both lines. I Think I missed it cause I cannot find the ad on CraigsList anymore. I will let you guys know something as soon as I do.

Re: I have to share !!
Well folks I just got up after sleping since 7:30 this morning from my night shift. Its 3:44pm here and 2:44 in Cali where the Burb is. As I said I left mesage for the seller to call me and I haven't received any. I just called him again and left another message. If its sold, its sold and I can't figure out why he won't contact me.

Re: I have to share !!
Well, I missed it. The seller called me back this afternoon and told me the buyer, who is from Georgia, wire transferred the whole amount to him and said he would make arrangements to come get it soon. Again everyone, thank you for your support. I guess I will keep looking.

Re: I have to share !!
Hi Geoff and thanks for the leads on the Burbs. I had already seen the ads and checked out the three links you sent me. The Colorado one with the shaker is okay but 8000.00 that is very strong for that Burb. I thought it would be cool with the shaker so in the Spring I called the owner and offered him 5000 for it and he said thanks ,he'd let me know and obviously he weants more. The one in Sacramento is again ( in my opinion and for my money) for wht is there, over priced. Lastly the one near you looks okay and the price is fair but its a 3/4 ton and I really want a 1/2 ton.
I appreciate you sending me links and please do as often as you want cause I may miss one.
