I have a truck load of items.that I would like to sale/trade as bulk. Includes wooden shelves, watt knots, kitchen items, JR Nova Compound Bow, Bratz Sleeping Bag, Girls Clothes 7-16, Toys, many other items. good for yard sale, thrift store, or flea market. Will take reasonable offer for all. EASY PROFIT call xxxxxxxx to arrange to look over and negotiate. Will consider trading for a couple loads of seasoned firewood. Thanks.

I'd try the old wheelbarrow load gag, but I think I'd still get ripped off....

And just how do watts get into knots, anyway? No wonder I lose my power so often.

If he will add the micky mouse lamp aunt beth bought him I'd jump the deal.

Hard wood for sale. Split and delivered. 40.00 for 2 or more cords, 50.00 for one cord. Please call (xxx) xxx-xxxx.

Now that's a discount!

What's even funnier is that ad is posted in the tri-cities (Tennessee) section - Saginaw is part of the tri-cities (Michigan). Wonder what he charges for delivery?

Well, hey, times are tough don't ya know. Gotta consider expanding your delivery area. I think you're right though, mistook Tri-Cities TN for Tri-Cities MI. The MI section is not close to the TN section on the main CL page however, and the page is Saginaw-Midland-BC.

And those are obviously "face cords", not cords.

Free wood from large deck I removed. It is cut into pieces. Call or respond to ad.

 

[darkbyrd]

Junk wood, anyone?
Free trees

 

[gtsawyer]

Does a popper pop when you burn it? Maybe he meant to say it was a "popular" tree, or maybe a "plopper" oy

 

[darkbyrd]

at least if he said 'popple' I'd know what he meant. 'Popular' and I would want to see oak or beech waiting for me. Ya know, 'popular' firewood

 

[anymanusa]

Okay this guy has 40-50 Black locust trees that he wants removed from his property. I call him up to verify the wording in his ad, and sure enough, he required that you take every last tree, remove all debris, and grind each stump. No one-zies or two-zies.

I told him to rent a bulldozer because he won't ever find anyone to do all that he asks.

Kind of like "saxophones are perfect if you have a birdbath"!

 

[darkbyrd]

I think wood chips are great. I just use alot of newspaper in the bottom, and shovel woodchips on top. Have to load it pretty often, but it makes alot of smoke. More smoke, more heat, right?

Oak firewood. 50.00/cord. Pick up only.


Here was my e-mail response to add:

A couple of questions.
What size logs? Splits? Length?
You are talking a 4' X 4' X 8' "cord"?
How old is the wood? Fresh cut? Standing dead? Past it's prime?
How many cords available?


we shall see

 

[loadthestove]

I've heard of face cords,cords,ricks,,but never heard this terminology.
