Default Re: Giant Brass Jones 8,000 RPM Tachometer

I didn't sell 409 parts; I kept them. This could go on and on, so let me just say that I am not in your league, Matt. Please don't persist in this silly comparison.
I have a hobby, I have cars and projects that I've owed for many many years that I intend to keep (not flip) and they need parts. I've never supplimented my income or counted on an income from selling parts. I've never gone through a swap meet with the intention of buying everything I could find that I could turn a profit on. I was looking for things I wanted for myself. If I happened to see something for $20. that I could sell for $50, I "might" have bought it to help offset my own expenses, or I might have just kept my money in my pocket because I was still looking for things I wanted for myself. My intentions and practices were/are very, very different from yours.

By the way, I remember you from those early days when you were at swap meets with your Dad (who did the same thing) when you were just out of diapers. You learned well. He can be proud of you.

PS: And I don't have a link at the bottom of all my posts to direct people to my ebay auctions.
