Have been looking for months for a local one. A couple moved into a new house and previous owner left it. They “wanted it gone” so I gladly obliged

    THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN ABOUT!

    GREAT DEAL.

    I don't know if I could've asked for a reduction knowing what it's worth. But I'm inching toward that style of buying. ;)

    Wife is a government employee and hasn’t had a paycheck in a month. I didn’t tell them that but didn’t feel right frivolously spending knowing that she doesn’t have an income right now. Figured it was worth a shot and had a $50 bill burning a hole in my pocket......

    Listen... :p

    My Mom told me when I was a teenager, 45 years ago, it doesn't hurt one bit to ask for a lower price. They can only say no and most will think about your request real fast.

    I'm sure I would've asked if they were firm on the price myself!

    I haven't had a paycheck in 10+ years so I kind-of know what your saying.

    Hahahaha; I actually can’t believe my luck with this. I picked it up this evening. It is in perfect condition - all hardware, back pieces and wheels. Not sure if I will keep this one or not. Don’t really have a need for it (unless I put it in the spare room) after the cherry one I got, but my brother is getting married in April and wants me to put together a budget home theater for him. This would be a really nice start to that - and free is always budget friendly!!!!
