How long do you hold a machine

[mznb1u]

I'm with Kilroy!  List it on E-Bay for at least $5,000 because I have seen these restored go for upwards of $12,000!    Jim--I got a good laugh out of both of your posts--"he's not dead"--long day so I needed the laugh.

But seriously--Pat I think that machine is yours.  I offerred to pick that machine up as well--glad I did not.

I agree that its your machine. I would never expect someone to hold a machine that long. What a rude person. You say this was a member?

It does sound like the bloke isn't well... So maybe the machine and the board are the last thing on his mind...

The last post was clear.... Its yours... Lets just hope that whoever the person is is going to be well
enough to get back...

Don't know if you covered your gas money??? If there is much left over I'd just keep it to noe side
Just in case....

Just my (Large old English) Pennies worth....

I am not sure who this person is but for doing something this wrong to a member I think he should be banned from the site. That is just wrong. We are kind of like a big family here and that is just something that you do now do. I would delete his membership. Just my two cents. I may be wrong.

[Kilroy]

Um, that's a bit much. what happened or didn't happen is between two people, if fraud or improper usage of the SMC, email trolling  or any phishing  scams were comitted, I'd  say a ban would be  more than fair.

I agree. I wouldn't get any more machines for him though with him prepaying! We all run into tough times, it is understandable. Definitely yours though

Ok I'm sorry that was a bit much but that really makes me mad that someone would take a friends time to go pick up a machine and then not even contact him about it. Besides your PM's he should be contacting you. If I asked a friend to hold a machine (especially one that size) I would do everything to get it out of his garage and into mine and for every month that I didn't I would call to at east apologize and make sure everything was OK. I understand that everyone has hard times but what this person did is just plain rude and Not friendly. Pat went out of his way to pick up a huge worthless machine for this person and they just forget about it. I don't care how hard this person's time is a call only costs pennies now. Heck an email or an sms would  do.

Your right about that, he should have called. I am just saying he might be embarrassed because he is broke or something. He still should of manned up and called, I agree.
