    I would take it, but only on the stipulation that he will have an appointment for delivery no later than Tuesday morning or he will be getting charged a premium for each day the load sites on the deck

    But that's just me, im sure others would have other ideas

    ok, look......If I was planning to take the week off anyway, sure, why not.
    However, the real deal killer in this higleypigley, is the no appointment set at this time........you're going to Walmart and that appointment might be yet another week out. Massive screw job.
    But, yeah, if I wasn't planning on going out until next week anyway, why not. Get a solid appointment first though.

    So you basically have seen this "movie" before, so you know how it ends. Too many red flags, too many unkowns, and too many risks, that can make the $4,000.00 not worth it.

    Until you know what the full transaction entails, how can you know it's good money?

    If they want the truck to sit for 3 weeks, it's horrible pay. You really need to see the full contract before taking it. Well unless you don't mind taking a gamble....
