safe to assume that part 1 may get closed/deleted
-----------------------------
Get ready for a long feedback post -
but not really long enough.
because if sin can invest what might have totaled a few DAYS of his life -- just to do one member one humongous favor -
then - we can devote a few minutes to know about it -- right ??
this is an aprrox. tally of went down on this one::
1. sin locates a one-owner m90 -- within an hour from his home
2.he convinces the seller to put it on s2g -to offer us all a fair chance at it.
3. then , he makes this post in our chat area--
"...........i might be able to help out"
what an understatement !!!
this is the 'help'
4. a long series of PMS, emails and phone calls to make all the many arrangements
5. a trip to his bank for lots of cash
6. a long trip from oakland to san franscico --traffic (yuk) --and crossing the famous 'earthquake bridge'
7. testing and testing --the m90
8. a trip to gather up the bubble wrap and both cartons
9. a LONG time to pack it to the MAX
10. another trip to the shipper
----------------
the result is that an s2g member (me) gets a real good m90--all tested , packed perfectly -sent immediately = HAPPY DAYS
but the story is that sin made this offer to help --knowing that all these big efforts would be involved--
and for all that --he deserves the cover story in the next BBDB !!
and he also deserves a world of THANKS-
we just cannot over-state what a great guy might do.
------------
btw --if this exact type of extraordinary deed got done once per decade --it would be plenty -
ya think ??
well - how about twice in FOUR DAYS !!!
coming soon....read about GORDIE

yeah vlad i thought the same thing. i think ira is trying to say something here. hmmm.......
rbj you forgot to mention that it was snowing and i had to walk both ways uphill with me jacket.
hey sin --after all these PM_s
i forgot to ask you -

nope......
then yours must be the bomb
mine is 7/8 of a bomb.
shouldn't be talking about the "B" word. they might go looking for you, and i don't know you if they do
Very nice team work guys. Very nice. Well worth it! Looks like a winner Ira. It has the official eject button too!
AWESOME, this is what makes members here so great, there might be a few bad apples, but alot of good ones too!!
Glad to see that M90 in great hands!

eric !!
forgot to tell you this :
my apologies - you were nice enough to offer me an m60 eject button -- i ended up getting an m80 button --which (i think) is identical to your m60-
BUT --even though those look identical to the m90 button -- thats only from the outside view -
from the backside (where it counts)
it was not long enough to trip the eject mechanism-
so -- this same sinister person (
)
finally provided the "official" m90 one-
a few months ago.
More great transaction in the family! Despite Ira being involved!
This is too awsome! Great job!
sin you are the man. i lived in SF for years and the traffic is
sure you will get the grand gesture back in aces.
Hijack...Blah Blah Blah, I love your avatar. I'm in love with Asian girls. I know they talk about Jungle Fever, so I guess I have Yellow Fever.
