Thinking about having a Reefers Yard Sale Sunday

[Ken2001]

Just curious if anyone would be interested in coming to a Reef stuff only yard sale next Sunday (August 1). I live in Swampscott, on the North Shore, next to Marblehead & Salem. I figured I'd just get out all the equipment I don't want to take with me on the move, and let everyone look at it, and the livestock in the 150. However, I'm a bit worried that since that's the day following the meeting, people might not be able to come. Unfortunately, the day of the meeting is bad for me, and I'm not going to have too many remaining weekends free before the move, which is why I'm thinking about this Sunday.

If a few people could give me an idea of whether this is a good idea, I'd appreciate it. (as a bonus, I'll probably have a case or two of Sammies on ice, and could fire up the grill for some burgers).

Do you have enough equipment to justify a yard sale? Sounds like fun but could you post a list of equipment or something of the sort so some of us don't have a super long drive and not find exactly what we are looking for?

That's not too far from me.. I could make it... what kind of equipment do you have?

 

[Scarfish]

livestock for sale too???????
whatcha got?

 

[Ken2001]

OK, I'll post a list, in the equipment forum, of what I'll have. I'll do it this evening.

What I'm trying to figure out right now is, assuming I've got enough equipment (It's essentially everything I've accumulated from all my tanks (29, 55, 75, 150, plus all the stuff that one buys and then never uses ), would there be enough people to justify doing this? Also, I thought it might be fun.

Thanks,

Ken

Ken why dont you list everything in a thread and people could paypal you the money and I could bring the items to the meeting for them/you. I am not far from you so I dont mind. I would also be interested to hear your livestock list

I already claimed the largest Yard sale item

 

[jackie]

I'd like to make the yard sale and the meeting but mom's having spinal surgery this Friday at Dartmouth. Will you be posting what's left over?

 

[littlep93056]

Dave i'll help you load your truck ,if you help load mine What time & where do you want to meet for breakfast

 

[this is me]

Is after 6pm alright?

 

[Cliff Tishler]

Ken, I would make it on August 1. Another thought. Since it is a "yard sale" might you ask other people to bring equipment that they want to swap or sell?

 

[sneeb]

I can't make the meeting but I would be able to make it to the yard sale on Sunday. I, too, would appreciate a list of the items you have for sale.

Thanks!

Do you have an HOB refugium for sale? I would also be interested in seeing your livestock. I think a list of both supplies and livestock in this forum is a great idea so people (me ) can see what they might want.
