Scam Alert. Members are reminded to NOT send money to buy anything. Don't buy things remote and have it shipped - go get it yourself, pay in person, and take your equipment with you. Scammers have burned people on this forum. Urgency, secrecy, excuses, selling for friend, newish members, FUD, are RED FLAGS. A video conference call is not adequate assurance. Face to face interactions are required. Please report suspicions to the forum admins. Stay Safe - anyone can get scammed.

Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Ontario GTA West area meetup is planned for Saturday April 26th at Greasemonkeys shop in Aylmer Ontario. If you are interested and haven’t signed up yet, click here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

Since @YYCHM didnt post a followup pic, I've kinda figured out why some of you dont see my posts in this forum with pictures.
Normally I create a post in 'member spotted deals' with an appropriate title, a link to the source ad on FB or Kijiji, and then I copy-paste a pic from the source ad to my post body. Its always viewable for me, and some other people here, but others have reported that they cant see my pic, which is why YYCHM usually posts a pic right afterwards.
What I did this time was save a copy of the source ad pic on my PC and then upload the pic to my post via the 'attach files' function and then inserted the pic into my post.

We're having issues with full size pics being posted. Thumbnails work though.
I do like the marketing strategy of listing it for $15k then dropping to $2k to make it look like a bargain.
A conversation from the past, laying out this principle:
SWMBO, looking at a blouse while talking to the store owner:
“I like this, can I get a discount if I buy two?”
Ms. Fengi, store owner:
“Sure, buy two, double the sticker price, and I’ll give you a 50% discount”
