• Please review our updated Terms and Rules here
  • From now on we will require that a prefix is set for any items in the sales area. We have created regions and locations for this. We also require that you select a delivery option before posting your listing. This will hopefully help us streamline the things that get listed for sales here and help local people better advertise their items, especially for local only sales. New sales rules are also coming, so stay tuned.

From what I understand the Altos stuff is gone, but everything else is available.

Free pickup in Chicago or pay to ship it to you.

There is only a week or two left before this is all scrapped.

Even for free, the high cost of gas (and because of it, the higher cost of shipping) is making it very difficult to rationalize getting some of this big, heavy stuff.

Where, at one time, people would e-mail me through my site with items for offer, either low priced or free, and I would take them because there was some room for profit left in it.

Now, the shipping charges make it a bad investment especially for something that may be in inventory for quite a while.
