Oh, so I'm actually selling stuff.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
So my parents are moving out of my childhood home,
so there's a lot of items that we are trying
to sell that they can't take because they're getting a
smaller house. Plus also, Mike is always selling things, and
I'm always the one that has to like facilitate and
like go to sad meet up place to like sell it.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Wait a minute, so he will sell something to a
stranger and then make you go and meet the stranger.
Speaker 4 (00:39):

sells stuff. She's like, Oh, someone's coming by to pick
up something, like the house.

parking lot and some of the public.

doing it for his wife. If you were sending Jess,
that'd be messed up. So what kind of things are
we selling and how much money are we making? Do
you keep the money?

it's probably close to ten percent. I've sold a snowblower,
I've sold a generators around the Mason Jars.

Windows the other day from some random by windows from
someone's garage spared.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, I'm starting to think that you you shouldn't have
to be you don't pay for any bills, but I'm
starting to think that you shouldn't because you do all
these things that he doesn't want to do. That's probably
you are you are your keep.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Yeah, that's probably his opinion as well as like, oh,
he could go to the stranger's back alley and pick
up some windows.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
And I still have no idea how you broke with
all your bills paid.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
I still don't.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
You're a kept woman, and somehow you don't have any money,
so that I don't understand.

Yeah, there's any don't have any good stories about buying
something online because I'm nervous about the whole thing. Eight five, five,
five nine one one oh three five because I'm I'm like,
like people say all the time when you sell a car,
that you should private sell the car because you'll make
more money that way. But I'm not trying to have
people come over to my house to look at my car.
(02:18):
You know. I'm also not trying to meet them in
a parking lite. You're like, I'm gonna get robbed and
then I get nothing, you know, so I always just
trade it in. I'm probably getting screwed. But it's like
they say, if you'll just post your thing and then
go out there and negotiate with people, you'll do better.
But I'm scared and I'm a large man, but I'm
not willing to go down like that. Like I'm not
willing to die in a dollar tree parking lot. Yeah,
(02:39):
you know, over the sale of my car. Yeah, that's
not how I'm going out right.

Not anywhere near its transactional lives apparently, gay people, Yeah,
real quick, it's really upsetting. Yeah, you're in danger, but

like Dog the Bounty Hunter when you're there, because you're like, well,
I'm in a blue haunt of pilot.

I guys, this is good.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Rusty, Hi, Rusty. You sold a minivan on what Craigslist
or something?
Speaker 9 (05:59):
I sold a towny country on like Craig Bliss. Wasn't
a terrible situation, but listened. It got a guy to come.
I told him meet me at the local gas station
at four o'clock. He said, great, that works fine, made
me wait like an hour and a half.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Before he even got there.
Speaker 9 (06:16):
So five thirty he comes and looks at it, looks
at the whole van, expects it. He's like, all right,
this is great because I think, God, I'm to get
rid of this thing. He's like, I don't have any
of the money on you right now? Can I come
back tomorrow? And I'm like, great, sure, why not? So
again meet him there. Let's do three o'clock tomorrow. Yeah,
that works for me. Waits another two hours, so about
five o'clock now, waited two hours at this gas station.
(06:39):
Finally comes back, tries to hag a little bit, finally
has cash on him, like, you know whatever, I'll take it.
A thousand dollars for this minivan, get it out of
my life, sign the bill of sale, give him the
registration or whatever. It is the title. Have him sign
the title. Let him know, all right, take this bill
of sale because it's Sunday. Get this, you know, to
the DMV as fast as you can to the gash. Sure,
(07:00):
no problem. Finally get the car out of my life.
Five days later, I get a call from Market Police department. Hey,
we have your stolen van. It's in the impound line.
If you want to, could have get it back. You know,
it's like fifty dollars.
Speaker 10 (07:13):
Like really, guy?
Speaker 9 (07:14):
I tried to call him. He's like, hey, man, I'll
go pick up the van back to like, you know,
twenty thirty bucks. Uh, pick it back for you. He
never answered. Something tells me he uh. He might have
been a throne in jail after.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Well, russy. At least he paid for the van first,
unlike a Kaitlin situation where they just stole the car
and then went on a crime spree and then she
had to retrieve it herself. So that was nice. So
you got the car back then, and the thousand bucks.
Speaker 9 (07:42):
I couldn't get the car back because that ended the titles.
I want to yeah a lot explain the situations like,
well that suck. I think they said, like in a
month or two, like, we'll have it at auction if
you want to fight.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
You're like no, no, no, no, no title no RUSSI man,
thanks for have a good day. I'm glad you called.
Hey Matthew, h Matthew, good morning. What happened you?
Speaker 2 (08:08):
What you want? I need to hear the story.
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Okay. So I was trying to buy a MacBook when
I was on leave in Chicago from the Army. So
I answered a Craigslist ad and I get there and
it's not I wasn't the brightest grand in the box
because I went to a bad neighborhood at night. And
(08:37):
then the guy brings the bag out and he's like
fumbling around with the bag and I make a joke.
I'm like, oh, so you can't find it, and then
he pulls a gun out. As he's doing that, another
guy's walking up, runs up and puts a gun to
my head and they're like is that at where's the money?
(08:59):
And I have the money hidden in a compartment in
my car and they're like ransacking my car. So I'm like,
please just let me get it for you. I will
give you the money. No games, like I.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Don't want to die right right?
Speaker 9 (09:13):
Whatever.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
They get the money, and then they're going through my
wallet and they see my military ID and he goes
to his buddy. He goes, no, no, no, don't take that.
He needs a ticket on base. And then they both
without missing a beat, they're like, thanks for your military service.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Thanks for your service. Did they did they like, abort
the whole thing and give your money back, or they
steal your money and they were gone, No.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
They steal the money. And then I thought they were
going to put me in the trunk too, because they
bring me to the back of the cart, me turn around,
my phone off, and then they take my phone too.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Oh my god, I'm glad you're okay, But thank you
for your service.

the errand boy for Mike the mechanic going to you know,
sinister strange environments to sell weird stuff for Mike for money.
But it's running this into a former life that he
used to live. So I's kind of into it. But
what happened to you?
Speaker 10 (10:31):
We went to sell a PS four for two hundred

You, jo Eric.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I guys, this is good.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Rusty, Hi, Rusty. You sold a minivan on what Craigslist
or something?
Speaker 9 (05:59):
I sold a towny country on like Craig Bliss. Wasn't
a terrible situation, but listened. It got a guy to come.
I told him meet me at the local gas station
at four o'clock. He said, great, that works fine, made
me wait like an hour and a half.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Before he even got there.
Speaker 9 (06:16):
So five thirty he comes and looks at it, looks
at the whole van, expects it. He's like, all right,
this is great because I think, God, I'm to get
rid of this thing. He's like, I don't have any
of the money on you right now? Can I come
back tomorrow? And I'm like, great, sure, why not? So
again meet him there. Let's do three o'clock tomorrow. Yeah,
that works for me. Waits another two hours, so about
five o'clock now, waited two hours at this gas station.
(06:39):
Finally comes back, tries to hag a little bit, finally
has cash on him, like, you know whatever, I'll take it.
A thousand dollars for this minivan, get it out of
my life, sign the bill of sale, give him the
registration or whatever. It is the title. Have him sign
the title. Let him know, all right, take this bill
of sale because it's Sunday. Get this, you know, to
the DMV as fast as you can to the gash. Sure,
(07:00):
no problem. Finally get the car out of my life.
Five days later, I get a call from Market Police department. Hey,
we have your stolen van. It's in the impound line.
If you want to, could have get it back. You know,
it's like fifty dollars.
Speaker 10 (07:13):
Like really, guy?
Speaker 9 (07:14):
I tried to call him. He's like, hey, man, I'll
go pick up the van back to like, you know,
twenty thirty bucks. Uh, pick it back for you. He
never answered. Something tells me he uh. He might have
been a throne in jail after.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Well, russy. At least he paid for the van first,
unlike a Kaitlin situation where they just stole the car
and then went on a crime spree and then she
had to retrieve it herself. So that was nice. So
you got the car back then, and the thousand bucks.
Speaker 9 (07:42):
I couldn't get the car back because that ended the titles.
I want to yeah a lot explain the situations like,
well that suck. I think they said, like in a
month or two, like, we'll have it at auction if
you want to fight.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
You're like no, no, no, no, no title no RUSSI man,
thanks for have a good day. I'm glad you called.
Hey Matthew, h Matthew, good morning. What happened you?
Speaker 2 (08:08):
What you want? I need to hear the story.
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Okay. So I was trying to buy a MacBook when
I was on leave in Chicago from the Army. So
I answered a Craigslist ad and I get there and
it's not I wasn't the brightest grand in the box
because I went to a bad neighborhood at night. And
(08:37):
then the guy brings the bag out and he's like
fumbling around with the bag and I make a joke.
I'm like, oh, so you can't find it, and then
he pulls a gun out. As he's doing that, another
guy's walking up, runs up and puts a gun to
my head and they're like is that at where's the money?
(08:59):
And I have the money hidden in a compartment in
my car and they're like ransacking my car. So I'm like,
please just let me get it for you. I will
give you the money. No games, like I.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Don't want to die right right?
Speaker 9 (09:13):
Whatever.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
They get the money, and then they're going through my
wallet and they see my military ID and he goes
to his buddy. He goes, no, no, no, don't take that.
He needs a ticket on base. And then they both
without missing a beat, they're like, thanks for your military service.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Thanks for your service. Did they did they like, abort
the whole thing and give your money back, or they
steal your money and they were gone, No.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
They steal the money. And then I thought they were
going to put me in the trunk too, because they
bring me to the back of the cart, me turn around,
my phone off, and then they take my phone too.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Oh my god, I'm glad you're okay, But thank you
for your service.
