You cant afford a 350.00 tach after selling 6000.00 worth of carbs on this site last week ???? Better check your employees arent dipping in the petty cash

OK...you post over $365,000 worth of parts in a matter of a few days on here, and you're busting my balls because I sold $6K in carbs???

Uh...huh. Nice cheap shot on my finances there. (how did I know that was coming?)

Not that I should feel the need to explain myself here, but I wouldn't want you losing any sleep over this, so...

Yes, that's about the sum of it. There's this inconvenient little thing that comes around the first of the year called taxes, which I always pay a.s.a.p. As January and February are always extremely slow months for me, the majority of that $6K is getting put away to make sure I can pay them, plus cover my monthly bills. That was the reason for the Christmas blow-out sale in the first place, which thankfully went even better than I'd hoped it would. I'll have my books done the first week or two in January, and by then I'll know where I stand and can (hopefully) start buying parts again.

Let's not forget the fact that I'm a "little guy" in this business. That $6K week was a banner week for me, and I know you probably do 10X that much business in a week (hell, in a day for all I know).

It's all a matter of perspective I suppose.

Oh, and I don't have any employees, save for some help from my GF, I'm a one-man show.
