Good deal for someone......... I would like to....... But.......
I called the guy - he says he has SIX people wanting to "look" at it. I told him I would PayPal money immediately and get my sister (she lives in Chicago) to pick it up. He says a guy is coming at 10:30 CST to look at it and is already on the way, so he has first dibbs, but if he doesn't take it, it's mine.

Good Luck!!
Cool Kevin, let us know how it works out.
Folks, I don't see the point in posting "pickup only" items from 3 states away on this board.
We could just batch-post nationwide Google alerts to North Carolina Woodworker for the same effect. For example, there's a nice 12" jointer for sale somewhere (Red Bluff) in CA right now...

Generally I agree. However, items like this are rare and our members have far reaching connections. My old employer had offices in Chicago, Boston, DC and Portland Oregon. I could have asked a co-worker in one of those cities to pick something up for me. I also know of a few NCWW members that travel extensively. They might be willing to extend our PE distances if asked nicely and the logisitics work out. As it looks, Kevin has a real chance here of getting a Kapex at about $500 off! Thats seems to be worth it.

People post things on Craigslist that they don't necessarily stick to.
Yesterday a guy here in town had some lumber posted for $4 a board ft. Said - IN HIS AD - that he would not take less and that he would let it rot before he sold it for less: Took it off his hands for $2 a bd ft.
The guy in Chicago just called back. He IS willing to ship to me if I send him a label. DONE - my saw!
Thanks for posting this ad. It was a real deal!

My wife may not be so happy with you!
If I ever meet her I will disavow all knowledge of the mission. This thread will self-destruct in 10 seconds...10...9....8...
Sorry to hear it. Thought you had lined you up a good deal....
