My 170$ Haul

[supperfly17]

Thanks to all that helped in this thread. http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?p=3489419#post3489419

Got this Made in Canada, Rouseau cabinet from a lady whose ex-husband was an aircraft mechanic. Was posted on Kijiji(like Craigslist).She was asking 200$, and I ended up being the highest bidder somehow at 170$.

Its in great shape no rust, just greasy. I took the casters off because it was too high.

Now its 60" high, 35" wide, and 24.5" deep.

Came with a full box of dividers for each drawer, and a big box of old-school screwdrivers.

It is really heavy. My brother and dad barely loaded it into the truck. Weighs over 400lbs for sure.

Very Nice!!!

First in YOU ****. More than likely better built than the new truck brand boxes. That looks to be in great condition considering the price. Those industrial cabinets are usually the best in^2 of storage space for the floor space they take up.

 

[supperfly17]

Best part is the drawers are kind of self-closing. You push them and they close on their own, and click in. Hard to explain.

 

[1/2 Cup]

Sweet, and nice sized draws as well.

 

[Strouty]

YOU ****! for sure, I paid $580 for one in worse shape.

 

[sickjuice]

This is why I hate selling stuff on kijiji. Why would you even try talk her down? Even $200 is steal. When clowns like you email me offers like that I reply- sure meet me at tims on main st in an hour and I crack a beer and delete your email

 

[outdoorsman310]

sweet! now time to fill it up with tools!!

If you read the previous thread I had no idea what she was selling until I actually saw it in person. In the pictures it looked like a filing cabinet. I also live 100 km away from her so hence why I made an offer.

 

[MN4x4]

Yes, YOU ****! That thing will probably outlast you.

If the offer wasn't satisfactory, there wouldn't be a deal.

Instead of being a ****, why don't you state in your ad "Offers accepted in-person only". I also state a block of time on a specific day I will be available. It weeds out the dreamers.

Calling him a clown for getting a good deal reeks of jealousy.

 

[Bull]

When clowns like you

Personal insults aren't allowed on GJ; they violate our rules.

 

[supperfly17]

Thats ok Im not insulted. Cant please everyone.

[The Gambler]

[atfulldraw]

[zkling]

. Good haul!

Why didn't you just offer the full price? It would look great next to your lista.

Thanks, next time you get first dibs. Those listas look great too. If you can get two for 600 even better.

 

[Lookin4'67Galaxieconv]

Nice job. As I said in your earlier thread, I figured you would be pleased when you saw it in person.

 

[Burgerkong]

I didn't end up getting it LOL. Yeah it looks great but having a corner that was ripped with no easy repair possible just killed the deal for me. I have my eyes set on another pair however .

400 lbs??!! Jeebus, that thing will outlive the cockroaches! Good on ya for getting a bit shaved off the price. I sell stuff on Kijiji all the time and purposely price stuff too high to make sure I get my bottom line, it is what it is.

Nice Score.

 

[Burgerkong]

It's still for sale! Maybe I will buy it end up buying it, it's really tempting. For the right price I guess.

Let me know how it works out, i might be interested as well.

How many do you need LOL. Yeah I will, he said they were in the process of being moved and he'll give me a call a week or so later.

 

[supperfly17]

Sounds like hes gouging interest, and doesnt have the cabinets yet. Wants to see how much would people pay.

 

[Super Sport]

You **** OP! I don't really need a cabinet like that, but would find several uses at $170!

We will see. It's a company that deals in surplus equipment.

 

[supperfly17]
