Thanks !
Jeff !

Uhm Not that desperate lol I'm only kidding, it has nothing to do with the 600$ price tag, I just want it original !

It's only $450. Is shipping $150 more?

Sorry i remembered it being 600$ regardless I didn't mean anything by it, I know these reproduction parts cost allot of money to have reproduced, I just want an original but i will most likely end up having to fab my own !

Lol it's no big deal, I figure I probably won't ever find a pipe stand on its own so figured I might as well buy the cabinet style base for now, I messaged the member earlier today when he posted the reply, just waiting for pics and price... I have 3 VMC 27's all without bases lol so if the price is fair I will definitely get it... Again, no big deal just thought it was funny lol !

Sorry to keep you waiting, I haven't had a chance to get a pic nor a price for it and really don't even know what to ask for it. It will need to be restored itself, but not in bad shape by any means. I don't know how to post pics on the forum using my phone and my desktop computer is packed up at the moment. Please send me a text at 817-two 29-O884 and I'll respond this evening with pics and answer any questions that you have on it.

I will wait for your to decide if you are going to buy it. I have a friend that has been looking for the cabinet style. If he would of said he had a pipe rack stand I wouldn't of PM him. I should of clarified that in my initial reply sorry for the cconfusion.

Lol its really not a big deal Jared, I know what you're saying, the second I get pics and a price I will make a decision instantly and let you know, I will most likely take it regardless of condition providing the price is fair, which I'm sure it will be lol  anyhow no worries lol all is good, I'll let you know either way ! |

I pulled my stand from storage and took pics as Jeff requested. I contacted him via text after he emailed me with the pictures and a price. He stated he wanted the stand given the shipping wasn't outrageous. I told him what the shipping would run in the ballpark of and he again stated he wanted the stand and was just sorting the shipping. He then asked if he needed to pay now and if I would hold it, I said that is ok or just pay before it ships. I told him I would drop it off and not charge any packaging fees, just the actual shipping. I was extremely nice and went out of my way to help him, but then 3 days later he sends me a text asking about the chrome strip (which is not pictured in any of the pics sent).
I said there was not one, but the chrome trim most use is found at the local autoparts stores for under $15 a roll. He hasn't responded to any text since May 8. I turned a few others away at the deal since i had brought it out of my storage and this is how the guy goes about business? Just a warning to everyone. I understand things come up and you may need to retract a deal, but at least have the common courtesy to say something along the lines that you are no longer wanting the deal, don't leave people out to dry... This is my first bad experience with this forum and I hope it's the last.

I was actually still taking the stand as discussed, I asked if you wanted me to pay for it now and you could hold it till I figured out what I was doing as far as shipping, you told me it wasn't a big deal you were in no hurry ! Didn't realize there was a problem much less one that warranted a public notice lol anyhow I apologize for any inconvenience !

I sent two text messages (since this was the way we were communicating) on 05/10/13 with no response to either one. I'm not trying to air our the laundry, just letting the forum know how my dealings have gone with this.

Well I finally got my pipe stand, a guest on here messaged me saying he wasn't using the pipe stand he got with his machine and was looking to sell it, I was very reluctant at first but we made the deal in a way that we were both kinda protected, anyhow turned out to be a great guy, got a decent stand for a decent price, so thank you David, he has since became a member, very nice guy !
