I found a few chunky GE Vent Early 5 blade fans with variable speed controls made by Union.. I called the guy once he replied to my email.. Once I asked him to ship them a few words later, I gotta go I have a conference I have to attend, I'll get to this later. Of course I waited and he never got back, So I decided to call again. When he picked up and realized it was me, he quickly said I'm in the middle of a conference call. Judging by the email and info, the guy is a lawyer. After a few emails I finally got a response saying, have no time to find boxes and padding, (After I already said I would pay for his time to pack them) I said all you have to do is drop them off at the local UPS store, I'll pay them to pack and ship. He said ok, shipping is a little high though being around $65 for each fan, let me see if I can find something cheaper. I said don't worry about it, what is your paypal email to send the money, after a few emails, I finally got a reply and he said he's out of town I'll get to you when I'm back, so I waited a few weeks, no email. So I decided to email him, and he said I told you I would email you when I got back, I have no patience for this, I'm throwing them out the next trash day.. And this was last week, and I noticed the Ad has been taken down, that was located in New Orleans Louisiana.. There was a Emerson Casablanca Classic, and the guy claimed to to have a few Hampton Bays

I was too worried about the two ULTRA RARE five bladers, something I have not come across yet since the late 80s, the Emerson was the least of my worries.. Apparently he threw them away..

Ugh, some people. Really sad to hear those fans went in the trash, I don't see what his deal was. Why would he throw them out after all that? All he had to do was drop them off.

What bothers me is not having those fans in my possession, but then again, this ad could have been a set up..

I offered the guy more than what he was trying to get out of them, plus for his time to pack them which is more than what there even worth, and he threw them away.. But if he's a Lawyer, that's just pennies to him and didn't want to be bothered.. I believe this is the second time a came across this same exact situation with the same kind of fans..

This is why I wheel and deal locally on CL. You should have notified Tom D on the AFCA. He lives fairly close to New Orleans and he would have picked them up for you since he is a CF guy too.

What a shame...I hate it when people are rude like this. That guy had an opportunity to get a chunk of cash for a few fans that he was probably going to throw out anyway. All he had to do was drop them off at UPS...what a shame...
