Need a free monovalve?

I have about 10 unripped used mono valves I stole from pick n pull over the course of a few trips. I figured I could put them on ebay for 15 bucks a piece and make some more pick n pull cash for the next trip. Well it ends up that some guys selling crap ripoff new ones for 15 bucks a piece, and I even lowered the price to 10 bucks a piece and they wont sell. Im willing to part with 6 of them, the rest will be my personal stock. Who here needs heat really badly? Ill send em to you for free, just pay a few bucks shipping. What do you guys think? Ill do it, If I could just get some addresses, and some shipping money paypal'd Ill just send them all at once. Im guessing probably 5 dollars at most shipping, I think I can fit it in a small padded envelope which might be cheaper.

I am surprised that nobody is dinging you on the "stealing" part of this offer... I could assume that you meant they sold them to you for chump change...

ah, who cares! Its pick n pull! Thats what they get for charging me 1.50 for a heater hose! And thats half of even! Jk, I know I know but atleast Im giving them away for free


Again Im guessing a mono valve would be no greater than five bucks to ship priority mail (seems to be the cheapest and fastest for small items). I'm trying to sort out right now who's getting them as I believe there are more than 6 takers. Anyone who doesn't need one and just wants an extra won't get one, these are for the needy "my commute is freezing ass" people

So far, heres the folks who have paid and will recieve valves.


Knightrider968
Kerry
Magoo
W123x3
BoondocHoliday
Tangofox007


If im missing anyone speak up and Ill look in the paypal transactions.
Ill probably send them out tomorow or wednesday, as soon as these clear into my bank (i transfered them all at once, except someone who sent an e check and will have to wait a bit longer). If I had money theyd already be on their way, but I'm not going to cut into my emergency reserve so you guys can enjoy warmth a day sooner
