Apparently, not everyone thniks I should....

It seems that some are upset with me for wanting to sell it, for a little less than the going value. I guess the thought is, "since you got it for nothing, you should pass it along for nothng"!!

And from some checking around, it looks to be worth more than $800. So, I decided that I would be nice and try for $750. But I guess some thnk that is being "greedy".

If I was loaded, I would not care. but right now, I can use the money. House taxes are due, and I also would like a laptop, as I said before.

But I KNOW that nearly ANYONE else would do the same. Includig many of those complaining.

My friend Greg recently made over $2300, from some old tubes, and other items. His expenses were probably less than $300. Was that wrong??

In both cases, had we (or someone else) not gotten the stuff, it would all probably be in a dump by now. Instead, some people got a good deal, and Greg made some much-needed money last month at the 'fest.
