My neighbor threw away a mower. I couldnt help myself so I ran over there and took it.
took me all of $20 and 10 minutes of work to fix it (new plug, drive belt).
cleaned it up and sold it yesterday for $120. Kinda makes me wanna drive around the day before trash day to see if there's any other quick-money making opportunities.

Isnt that one of the Walmart mowers they sell for like $150?
Well played sir.

People throw away shit for the stupidest reasons, just because the don't want to maintain anything.

My dad was doing that with bikes and selling them at the local flea market. He did get a lot of bikes cause he is a mailman in the UC Davis area. I think he has probably jacked a few as well

nice!

Tell me about.
I'm getting a complete h23 and trany along with the JE pistons, Eagle rods, Titan sleeve, new header, 450cc DSM inj., 14b, 1g dsm bov, and whole bunch of other shit. ;D
He wants me to put a D15b8 w/ CX trany in his 4-door.
I just recieved a call yesterday from this guy he went beyond his budget and lost his job and about lose his 2009 Jeep, after he wrecked it. :'(
He has been getting dicked around by a bunch of people in town and he is getting desperate to have his civic back on the road.
Oh bonus I sold him the D15b8 and trany 3-month ago. ;D

One of my friends took his 01 stratus to the junkyard because the serpentine belt tentioner took a shit. sure it had like 150k on it but I was like wtf?! two years ago wee scoured CL looking for shit like that just to buy and resell.

Bought 4 lawn boys off ebay a couple years back for $25. Kept 1, junked 1, sold 1 for $175, and still sitting on one I traded a picked motor for. There's a fortune in the trash if you look.
