I am considering buying a heavy pair of speakers that the seller will not ship. They are in the North Shore, Boston area. I would need someone to pick them up and hold them until I can make arrangements for shipping or until May when I could pick them up. I would compensate you for time and gas, etc., but please don't say yes if it would be a hardship for you. These speakers are up for auction, so no guarantees that I would win them and I won't bid unless I can get someone to pick them up. Thanks.

    As long as the pickup time is relatively flexible, I have a pickup truck and would certainly be willing ot get and hold them for you.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.
