that I spend 1/2 my days browsing Marketplace!
I've been trying to get a 4 post lift from Direct Lift since November 12th. Told them I wanted the extended Pro Lift 9 and two Pro Jack 4500's ... "None in stock, but we know they're on the boat". On December 14th the guy called me at 8AM and said "your lift came in, do you want to pick it up or have it shipped". #1 you can't pick up there unless you have a highway van that a fork truck can drive into and #2 he was given a shipping address and supposed to get me a quote. I said it has to be shipped and what is the cost for delivery of the lift and my two jacks. He says "no jacks and we don't know when they're coming in..and oh yah, I forgot to get a shipping quote". I told him I wasn't paying shipping twice (that I've since been told is another $551) and to hold off until my jacks come in to ship everything at the same time. So there sits a lift now for over a month, with my name on it.. no money down, no credit card info given, him CC'ng 4 other sales people so they know this lift "is his" and I haven't heard from him for over a month on what is a total sale of $8219 Canuck Bucks.. ($6250US)
Last night on my 4 times a day scroll through FB Marketplace... right before my eyes the exact Pro 9 extended (121" wide x 193" long not incl ramps), with Jacks and tool trays, appears before my eyes. As new, less than a year old.. car simply stored on top and shoved to the side of a guys work shop that needs some cash. Just finished the deal for $4500 Cash and he's going to have enough guys there this weekend so we can just load the long trays and leave the post/cross beam sets connected together and load into my nice high enclosed trailer this weekend. Posts are 97" high and I have a diagonal door opening of 122".
The savings, on my already boss preauthorized purchase of this lift, is $3719 Canuck Bucks.
The neatest part.. I currently have a total parts expenditure into the Dart of $3708 !
