So the wife wants a treadmill located in Ketchum, ID 83340. Anyone want to drive there to pick it up and deliver it to our house in Burbank for $250? Partially disassembled and weighs about 400 lbs. see pic below.

Werd. Even in my Toyota praying for a 25 mpg average (which it surely won't get coming home loaded) and averaging gas prices at $3.75 that puts just under $139 in my gas tank leaving the rest as profit. Unfortunately I value my time higher than the $7.92 an hour I'd stand to potentially profit baring any flat tires etc along the way.
Now if this treadmill was on the west side of WA I'd have an excuse to go visit the inlaws and make the wife happy so it'd totally be worth it!

Make it $350 and I'll go get it next saturday. I work on a farm so we don't get memorial day off, shocking I know.
That's one expensive treadmill, I'm going to assume it's out of a closed or remodeled gym? The cheapest new I found in a quick search was almost $3000. And used was still over $2000

this one is used and is going for $650 so even with the shipping costs it still a decent deal. will get a hold of the owner and see what her schedule is to see if saturday works.

Groovy, this may give me something productive to do for a change.
