Whew! It's over and I got it! - Mon Jan 21 2013 02:27 AM
Wow! Oldgas network strikes again. Last week I saw this clock on Cl,after it had been on for over a week.
I'm like... Whoa! An Aztec!(I really been wantin one of those)and the price seemed real good.so I try and call the number,figuring its long gone,but the number is disconnected . Send an email,and ask if its still available.well couple days
Later I get one back that says yes,it is. Think that was Thursday.well... The lady ( a very nice lady,by her emails)says it works,and lights,,but she's kinda busy till Sunday. I asked her for her contact info,and all of the sudden no reply. Now,its in holland mi,so on Friday,I bug Lonnie Hop,while he's at its a gas,and ask him if he might be able to pick it up for me,if the deal happens.well,Lonnie ,being the great guy that he is,says no problem. Then on sat, she gets back to me,and we exchange a few emails,and she says she will send me pics. i agree to her asking price,ask for contact info again,and then she's gone again,and I'm thinking damn,missed it ,someone beat me out! Now I'm sure you all know the feeling when your sitting there wondering what's going on! ( believe me,I was chompin on the bit!)! Especially with CL buys.well.... Turns out with the winds on sat,she had a tree hit her house,so she had other things on her mind than this old clock.emailed again today,and she sent me her info.turns out she's about 10 minutes away from Lonnie .this afternoon,he made it over,and picked it up for me..brought it home,and sent me this pic.
. Just goes to show,be patient,and good things will come. And,there are people,who still stand by their word,even if they aren't oldgassers! Thanks again Lonnie,and oldgas... Without which I wouldn't have met so many great people! Btw,the painted over marquee says " Oliver's sales and service" have to see if I can get it clean.
