See. that's the civilized way to do it. I was going for that, too! We could have used some extra cash.

My rule is never try to give anything away,,,,always ask for something in return and let them beat you down to nothing,,,then they think they got a bargain,,,nobody wants it if your giving it away,,,,itll be like steph ,,,,you have to pay to transport it
