I usually try to avoid entering Pinside shenanigans, but just to bring some closure I sent a PM that more or less said: "Interested, cash in hand, can pickup today or tomorrow." I don't usually announce a PM in the sale thread.
Seller messaged back to say he is available this afternoon, if all goes as planned I hope to load up and be back home with some daylight left this evening.
Hopefully everyone thinks that is fair and that I am worthy. . .
