The seller picked it up at a YARD SALE?????? What the heck, where are those when I go to them??? Grrrrrrrrr...

Tell me about it Steve. The only gear I see at yard sales are plastic kiddie guitars.
I'm in.

I had that reaction also, Steve! I already posted a thread about finding old 4001's in my area and here this guy stumbles on a Oct. 77 AG at a yard sale! Must be the reward for living in a huge metro area (~40 mi. NW of LA).

Hey John,

Oh man, they say to be careful what you ask for, you just might get it....

You first, let me know and I'll shive off..

I'm a dead man.

My plan is to wait and see where it is a day out. Still have almost 10 days. Also I have no eBay feedback nor Paypal account. I've never bought or sold on the 'Bay.

I got a 4001 mg 1975 in MINT condition at a yard sale. It even smelled new.

for $150.

:p

Hey John, since you're local, if you're serious about it, I can bid for you and you can pick it up from me.
Or you can set up a Paypal account...

Start now, it takes a few days to get it connected to an account.

There are so many yard sales every weekend, that I always look at, hoping to find a deal like that.
