BTW, I don't think you can buy just those caps, but they carry that type of fuse holder at Radio Shack. It's a 60 second swap.

Nice, thanks for the tip. I'll stop there on the way home. :cheers:
HaRuMaN:
Nobody had lined up as a buyer... people had lined up to come look at them. No arguing either...
I show up maybe 5 minutes before guy #2, my brother was there like 5 minutes after guy #2.
I say I have the money & am willing to take them. Guy #2 says same thing... that's it. Seller then decides.
HaRuMaN:
And, FWIW, the seller was lining up multiple people to come and look. He had a buyer flake out on him Thursday night, and so then he proceeded to tell a bunch of people to come out & look.
ChadTower:
Looks to me like it was a reasonable situation that he explained poorly. Multiple potential buyers and whoever shows up first with cash wins. We all know cash in the driveway is king on CL if you don't want to deal with flakes and tire kickers.
HaRuMaN:
Yeah, I probably could have done a better job explaining... in any case, here was the seller's last email to me:

Seemed to me that the seller was trying to hedge his bets, and just get a warm body over to his place to come get these things.
He had just bought the house, and they were there when he got the place. He basically just wanted the garage space back.
