Got a piece there I am potentially interested in...... Would need someone to pick something up for me and ship to me, assuming I can get it....

Anyone?

    If you by chance end up driving to get them, I'll ride with you for strength in numbers and a person to complain about the traffic up there.. B)

    I'd take you up on that, but hoping to save the time as these aren't SDA type speakers lol......

    Is shipping an option? I have a relative who lives just south of the IN/Ill state line.

    Hey Dan,
    Not sure how flexible I am at the moment, my sister is in town and my family is preparing to fly to CA on Thursday, so packing galore...
    Do you know the availability of the other party?

    Not exactly close for me and Brock is way off the map. I can possibly, if you give me some more info. Don't want to go that way turning peek traffic times so if the seller is available during the day I could possibly.

    Brian/Ernie is in Bolingbrook, probably the closest, shoot him a PM and see what his schedule looks like.

    @tonyb you talking about @erniejade ?

    Haven't even got there.

    Figured step 1 was to check if someone was close. This isnt something I must have, and its something the person selling has a MUCH higher value on than I'm willing to pay, so it may not work out. Its also why they've been sitting on CL for 30+ days (either he wont come down in price, or everyone knows he's priced to high and just doesnt even bother to contact him)

    I'm just trying to get some stuff in motion should it work to have these small bookshelves shipped to me.

    Sent you both a PM with particulars....

    I am headed to Chicago for a vacation (I'm from there) on June 12-15. I will be staying downtown. But i frequent downers grove which is relatively close to willowbrook. If this is something you must have and it fits my schedule and isn't too big, I can do it. Pm me ahead of time.

    I am in Panama City Beach right now. I have meet a lot of people who ask where are you from. When I say one of the Chicago burbs, many of them say we were on vacation in Chicago last year or we go out that way for vacation every other year. Maybe because we live in the area we don't think of it as a vacation spot.

    Chicago, New York City great places to visit. Great museums, food, music, art, etc.
    If culture is not your thing, may be not so much.
    The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

    Chicago is where I grew up. When we visit, we stay downtown and peruse the food scene. Also, I hit up audio shops as they are more plentiful there than here in Dallas. Family is there too so we try to visit.

    We usually stay at the Peninsula as that's where we got married. Good memories.

    Sorry for not checking in sooner. Looks like I won't need help his time around.

    Couldn't come to an agreement with the seller at this time.
