Ok, sir, show me, at $16 dollars per head SALE price, and a $12 per head PURCHASE price, how I am trying to make a profit? Can you? No. As I stated repeatedly in the "Courier" thread, I was willing to do all of this driving, but did not want to get screwed on the gas. My mileage this morning when I put 18.002 gallons of gasoline into my wife's Jeep was 45,865 miles. This evening, when we got back home, I put another 18 gallons in, and the odometer read 46,232 miles. That's 367 miles, and we used 18 gallons of gas. My company is charging probably 2.40/gallon right now?! According to my calculator, that comes out to $43.20.

I was asking $4 for each Frogspawn (that you did not deliver on), and $3 for each hammer for gas. A rough tally of the overage charged to each of the San Antonio guys for their stuff (names and quantity can be found earlier in this thread) leads me to believe that I would have collected, including $10 from my own purchase, a whopping $28. Where is the profit? I asked for ASSISTANCE with the gas bill, not for anyone to finance this expedition.

Oh, by the way, sir, weren't you trying to make a profit off of your Frogspawn? And your point would be?

By the time you had contacted me,Solid had already purchased the three pieces of hammer.Matter of fact you were at this house today were'nt you?And you saw the hammer din't ya?The post above this one kinda looks like you are accusing me of being a liar about what i have in my tank.I know what i got,Solid and Sharkbait know what i got.
Actually, again, you are wrong. What the post above shows is that you had only a vague idea of what you had in your tank. 40+ is not a number. 41, 45, 367 thousand; those are numbers. Nice to see that you finally have a solid number...37. So, 37 heads, plus the 8 that you say SoLiD bought would be...45 heads total to start with? The 12 heads I offered to buy, given this new revlation would be OVER a 1/4 of the whole spawn. That is not a SMALL number.

By the way, I don't have to answer to you before I make travel plans.

Actually, it is impossible for me to "scam" you out of anything. It is YOUR 'spawn, in YOUR tank, behind YOUR locked door. I'm just not good enough to do that from 200 miles away.

Sir, you have no idea what I can and cannot afford. I was actually contemplating purchasing the entire 'spawn from you last night, before you called me to back out (again). The only problem with that plan would be that I felt that I would be stuck with a lot of coral that i could not easily get rid of, kind of like what you are dealing with now.

Had you actually gone through with the deal (any of them), you would have discovered what everyone I have dealt with has discovered...that I am fair, friendly, respectful and deeply appreciative. If there truly is anyone out there who has a problem with me, I wish them well. They have the choice to deal with me or not.

As I have repeated several times, the (final) offer I made was for 12 heads at $12 per. Initially it was ten, you said no. I counteroffered with 12 for $12, you resorted to calling me a cheat, a liar, a scam-artist, a vagabond and childish.

You could have PMed me if you wished to show me this level of disrespect. By doing this on a public forum, it is clear that your intention was to defame me. Sir, I feel that we have nothing else to say to each other.
