I don't bother that much anymore; they see me coming and think anything I'm interested in is worth thousands... it's actually kind of sad/funny. You know, like one of those crappy paintings of a crying clown. Because I'll buy a UO8 for five bucks, but if I'm interested in it, it must be worth a lot...
That kind of sucks, I'm sorry.
I'm actually not looking for anything right now (except 30 year old 36 hole clinchers), though I appreciate the info. My mom lives over on Southside.
I had this bumped for Badger_Biker because I thought the info was pertinent(sp?) and I couldn't find it by it's title.
You're right about the shady characters in the area. I just try and deal with the guys that I know.
(A shout-out to Evan, Chris, Luke, and Chip!)

Thanks
