I charge a fee as well, everytime I help out people whether they are my friends or not. Nothing wrong with that.

You should always, always compensate people for their work, and compensate them well for good work. It's the American way, and it's what built this country.  |

Without getting into a pissing match, that is the difference between you and I, when a friend asks for my assistance, I don't ask "what is in it for me". If I have the time and the energy, I just do it.

I have to say I am bit surprised by the response to the lack of finders fee. For the most part I thought people on this forum were fellow enthusiats that were here to help each other. I guess we should all have paypal accounts to compensate others when they help us with a question? If charging a fee works for you, then by all means do it, but for me I'll continue to do freebies when and where I can. I believe in trying to keep the Karma good and I believe that has led to some of the deals I have run across over the years. The exception to this is people that are in this business and make their living at it. In that case I expect to provide fair compensation for services.
Bill, Good luck on the car sale and remember, the deal of the century comes along every couple of months.

Bill,
I have sent links to the car and your post to several friends in other states. California would be a hassle getting the SB-100 number and that is the first thing anyone around here asks, but I have shown a few the picture of the car anyway.
Good luck with the sale as it is going to be a great one when finished.

Jay, I agree with you 100%. But on the other hand, I was at the grocery store the other night standing in line at the checkout to buy a steak to grill up and the guy in front of me, who was doing the same, was explaining to the checkout girl that, while he had no money, he had loads of good karma. He did not get his steak.... |
