Today's good deed

So I got my Ramsa WRT-820, that I love but can't afford the space for anymore, on craigslist. I had the price at $350. This 14 year old kid calls and wants it for $150. Sold and I feel like a million bucks. All the best to junior and his recording aspirations.

    "Today's good dead?"
     
    Is that like a mash-up of "deed" and "deal?"
     
    (Nice story regardless - hopefully made the kid's day!  )

    As a Geordie, "deed" and "dead" amount to essentially the same thing so no problems here.

    I couldn't resist The kid offered to work it off around my house, baby sit, etc. He wanted this board and he wanted it bad. He still needs to arrange for pick-up/payment with his Dad. I have faith he'll make it work.

    I ended up putting up on Flea Bay and got my full price in less than 24 hours. I can use the extra bucks. I put a Leslie Model 25 up too.

    Sounds like it all turned out ok.  You still did the good deed AND ended up with what you wanted.  Win/Win!
