content: Thanks for the comment. Yes, the assets are located in Connecticut but packing/pickup/shipping can be easily arranged through a 3rd party. Suggested vendors are listed on the sale page and buyers are free to use companies of their choosing.Quote from: zapta on March 11, 2015, 03:34:43 pm

content: Third party shipping = insane costs and NO one is responsible when equipment is damaged in shipping. IfTBGwants to sell online then you'd better get used to doingthe complete processand that includes shipping! Don't believe me? Go look at the selling prices for "Local Pickup Only" items on E-bay! Don't ship? Fine! But expect to get peanuts for your items!Quote from: TBG_Assets on March 11, 2015, 03:55:51 pm

content: It would be so much easier if these items where just on Ebay. No hassle with arranging shipping, credit-card applications, buyer registration, etc. Now they get bought by equipment dealers who put them on Ebay. You know what they say about getting rid of the middle man...

content: its a feature that the stuff isn't ebay priced - I snagged a few items for 1/4 of the ebay listings - I wasn't expecting that good a deal could be had today when any can compare prices in seconds
