cort1977 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Surely what you're referring to as 'flipping' is simply someone attempting to make money. Something is worth what the market will pay for it, no? If he's got a bargain at auction and is marketing it better to attract a higher price then what's wrong with that? Good conservative Friedman free-market economics. Cavcraft and BorniteIdentity 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He spoke at me for about 2 hours about them until I managed to escape. For a short time after that I was probably one of the principal authorities on miniature truck building in the UK, or even the world. Thankfully I managed to remove most of the information from my brain with a massive amount of drugs and alcohol and I've since managed to continue a relatively normal existence but it was touch and go there for a while.
