Re: (ET) Group Buy



Fellow ET'ers:  I live about 40 minutes from Bill's and have been there several times.  I'd be interested in, and able to help out in a group buy/inventory/etc. project.
 
IMHO, Bill has gotten very bitter over the last few years about the whole ET life.  He's more interested in the rest of his business-electrical and motor repair, etc  I know he last told me, with some prompting, that the whole lot was going to be sold to a golf course owner "south of the border" was all he'd say.  And if that didn't work out he was going to 'dumpster' everything. 
 
Please keep me posted on this progress. 
Pete

Don, I've been at Bill's a couple of times, and I think you have too.
What I saw on e-bay was a fraction of what
Bill had, perhaps even his 'junk'.  Do you think this is just a first
go-around?  Is he feeling the waters?  Would
he be open to someone doing inventory again?

Folks,

I had offered to Bill before he closed up shop to use elec-trak.com to
sell off his inventory.

Bill's sticking point was that a lot of the items he
had were scattered all over the place, and he didn't
want to organize it up.

I was ready to go up there, take photos, etc and do
all the work to put the stuff online, and use paypal
payments. All I wanted was a percentage point or two
to defray the costs of the www site.
