Need a favor from norcal! (Stockton/Fresno)

kmarei · 06-08-2011, 09:33 PM

Found an amp I've been dying to own for the last 10-15 years
But of course it's in Cali,
I live on the east coast (20min from Wash DC)
So I'd paypal you the money for the amp ($200)
Plus any expenses ( gas, toll etc)
You pick up the amp, and ship it to me ( will either pay for shipping, or email you a prepaid fedex shipping label)
The place is called Atwater, it's close to Merced, and less than an hour from Modesto
Any norcal guys wanna help a brother out?

Ps will also owe you a favor if you ever need something from VA, DC, or Maryland , will do the same

If google is right, I think it's 2 hours from SF.

But my question is, why can't you get it shipped as is?

Because the owner does not have paypal
And I don't trust sending him a cheque
So I need a middle man, or woman

Curious, what type of amp are you trying to score and how did you hear about his sale?

I was bidding on one on eBay
And lost the bid today by $10!
So I googled the model
And found his craigslist ad
Called him and asked for pics
He emailed them to me
I called back and said I'll take it
Only to find out he doesn't have paypal

So I can't send him the payment

It's an old Soundstream amp made in the late 80's
And I'm a big fan, borderline addict

Still using them in my car, even though they are about 20 years old

2 hours from San Francisco
1 hour from Fresno
willing to pay for gas and all expenses

it's funny considering your username

kmarei · 06-09-2011, 03:23 PM

closest big city is Stockton, or Fresno, both are about an hour away
that would probably be the easiest trip for who ever does it
any stockton/Fresno residents here

frozenfire · 06-09-2011, 03:30 PM

Well if the guy can hold it for you until sunday, I could pick it up probably evening/afternoon-ish. I work and live in Sacramento but will be going to newman sunday.
