2 Clocks not working, from the locker, 1, I like the case, although the dial could use a repaint, which - in my mind, improves it - the possibilities are infinitely more than the sum of it's parts. The other, boring old mantle clock, chimes but doesn't run.
Get rid of them, both, and I list them both on Kijiji - and, within the hour I have 2 responses - one from Manitoba, clock repairman or hobbyist, he wants both. Great. Deal done.
The other, he starts by asking me about 1, then lowballs me with an offer $10.00 less..."Sorry, Sold" I reply. Funny when people try and lowball you on stuff, especially when it's only been listed an hour...and satisfying in the extreme to tell them "too late" or "sold".
Pack the clocks - a nightmare, their odd sizes mean I have to custom make a box. Think Homer Simpsons Spice rack, only with duct-tape and cardboard.
But it's done, in the mail, onto other things. Another responder on one of the clocks, I had told them their on hold, he counters with an offer of double what I was asking. Now I'm curious, I look up the clock online, sure enough, a Canadian Classic, but - no crying over spilt milk, just glad that it's gone, but it makes me pissed at the other one - the one that was lowballing me, nice try asshole...
