Let me clear up a couple lies right now.

1. This is my personal snowmachine and yes it is for sale, and pardon me all to pieces for riding my own sled during work hours on a Monday.

2. We were never "kicked" out of Eagle River, but we have so many great customers that we grew and had to leave Eagle River to grow into a bigger place... There was nothing that was big enough in Eagle River. Now we have more business than we ever thought we would in Anchorage!

3. Since I know you are reading this, you silly little boy/girl we don't sell spoons at our business, so go get them from Salvation Army, which happens to be a great place with alot of great deals.

4. Sorry I'm so heated. Usually we don't get upset. We have many different types of people that come to our store ranging from gruff old time Alaskans to the young guys who want to hang out and check out our new inventory, to nice old ladies who want to check out some furniture, to new families to Alaska looking to furnish an entire house. Usually we don't get in the middle of rude conversations, but this time somebody is surfing Alaska4x4network trying to hurt our business by spreading lies. Who knows if their doing it to other businesses.

5. I've never felt threatened on Alaska4x4network before, but never really wanted to share anything about myself, my family, or my family's business and was starting to become more comfortable with doing so, but now I have to fear that some creep is trying to use my personal pictures by taking them from a personal post and publicly pasting them to a completely different site and fabricating false information to hurt my family and our business.

6. I was trying to brighten everybody's day by sharing something that I did that was fun, and thought others might follow suite and post something fun that they did too, since we all know Mondays can be hectic.

7. I'm not going to quit posting because of some creep lurking around trying to hurt us, but be aware that the same might be done to one of you.

Thanks so very much CI=HP for looking out for us, and posting that link to the malicious post on Craigslist! Stop by and say hi, cause I've got a Lightforce Pocket Flashlight sitting here for you!

In fact! Starting now and ending on February 22 (The next 2 weeks), if anybody buys something from our store and mentions this thread, we'll give you a 5% discount off anything in our store! We appreciate all the business and friendships that we've gained from you guys.

I give Tom and his family my vote of confidence, they are a great group of people, and their consignment services are top notch. They found a buyer for my Tacoma a couple years back and i couldn't have been happier with their work. I'm sure i could have sold it myself, but sometimes your time is just better put elsewhere.

Through my work i have personally referred many people to their place of business to find cars and trucks, and have helped many a person finance their new toys without ever so much as a slight concern to the professionalism of their team (I'm talking over several dozen buyers).

familyfleamarket.com

I think it should be added that aside from all the other mentioned things about them, they have the best prices on INTERCO TIRES.

So I must say I missed something but I have sold and bought stuff from Tom( fleamarket) and it has all worked out great. Tom has even forwarded some of their customers to me for parts that I have had and he wouldnt take a commission for helping me sell some parts. So hats off to the fleamarket.

Although your guy's website makes me think of Diablo.

For the record the CL posting has been flagged/removed, and CI=HP was just letting FFM know that the posting was on CL - thus the generous "thank-you" to CI=HP from FFM...

Peace,

Let me know how long it takes to get that foot out of your mouth. Usually this is the post I make before I catch what's going on.....

I agree with you though Spencer... FFM are a good group of folks who not only try to take care of thier community, thier 4x4 friends, but are just all around good folks.

You really shouldn't have had to say anything. I think most of us can guess who it was that posted that Craigslist post. Commenting on it as you did really was what they were after unfortunately.

I've jumped on freshly plowed berms before. I really like how the skiis sound when they slap the ground. Sometimes you can even hear the shocks crying a little.
