FREE!!!! ????????????????- Pay it Forward (READ POST #1 FIRST!)

In keeping with the generous spirit of ghetto waggon's original thread, here is version II.

For the new people to the thread: What we are trying to accomplish here is a place to come and get an item for free (or shipping cost) and in turn you offer up something in equal value to the community. This is not a TRADE thread. If you want what is up for grabs then you claim that and put up what you have up for grabs.

Version I was getting a little cluttered and confusing. Here is what we are going to keep as "rules" for this thread.

Rule updates made by: evilmonkeyMSP


- Only one offering at a time can be available. (if you have tons of things you would like to give away regardless of taking what is available, by all means, start your own thread :) ) If more than one item is posted I (evilmonkeyMSP) will delete the post and PM the member to hold off.

- No "dibs" to search for something to put up. The first person with something to offer up in exchange gets the current item up and cannot back out once they have taken the previous item (especially if that item has already been shipped to them)

- A picture of the item would be nice but a proper forum pic will only be required if money is exchanging hands (ie: Shipping).

- If an item does not go after 1 full week it will be taken off and someone else can offer something new.

- The next item offered cannot be put up/taken until the previous offer is confirmed to be going to the person who requested it.

For example: Poster #1 puts up spark plugs and poster # 2 wants them and in turn offers up a mazda shirt in turn. Until Poster #1 aknowledges that Poster #2 is getting the spark plugs Poster #2's item cannot be taken.

- The item replacing an item that is being taken should be relatively equal in value. If you need to offer multiple items to replace the one you are taking, this can be done. No trading a turbo in exchange for a mazda pen (evil).

This is hopefully to help keep things less confusing.

We want to keep this going for as long as possible. I will try and monitor the thread as much as possible, and evilmonkeyMSP will moderate as needed.

Current Item up for grabs:

we're not talking dollar values,

the MSP engine cover is a hot item

this idea for this thread is to just keep parts flowing

Someone gets what they want, and offers something someone else will want

it's not a trade thread

like the OP says, you can't offer a pen for a turbo

It's not a dollar for dollar thread


I WANT SMASH BROTHERS!!!!!

but if your logic would work...if the pen is a 'hot' item that would go quick, it could be traded for something with 3x the monetary value that it has

edit-i cant see this going the other way where someone would put up maf/vac block for the msp engine cover, so why should it work this way?

lets just ask if we would make the opposite trade willingly.... I think thats the ultimate question here. to me, the MAF is even up for the MSP cover... I wouldn't throw the vac block in with it. that said, I think there should be something on top of the MSP cover to sweeten the deal.

so help me.... if someone makes a smartass remark about the emblem on top of the cover... lol
 
are the items still available? im on my phone and cant check everything

can i offer my vibrant resonator for these? maybe add a passanger side tail light?

I would assume you are 3rd in line right now until the Evilmonkey himself arives...
 
ok.. lets make it easier.. he really only wants the VAC block.. throw up the cover for it.. .. and i can take the MAF down?? sound good?

if not its cool.. i have it all boxed ready to go.. its just a way to clear the thread of the unwanted jargon and get to getting things you want by trading to the entire community
 
Come on guys I shouldnt have to make every determination here lol

Who was first to want the current item up? Does that person feel that what they are offering up is worth what is being offered. There is and should a bit of self regulation going on here. Be fair in what your offering.

Think of it this way. Would you want what you're putting up if the roles were reversed? How would you feel if someone was putting up what you had in exhange for the going product. Monetary value isnt always the only issue. I could put up something worth about the same but that doesnt mean anyone would want it so there we would be stuck again.

Clearance isnt needed from me for every item, I dont have that kind of time. If there is a discrepancy sure, notify me and I'll take a look but otherwise you guys should be logical enough to figure out whats ok and whats not ok.
 
i do keep an eye one what goes on in here but you guys dont need to wait for me to move along is all I'm saying. I'll step in if I think something is way out of line or if we're getting too ahead of ourselves in here. k?
 
lmao!!

If smashbrothers is up, i do want it

just gotta see what's in the garage when I get home


maybe my partly finished foglight projectors?
