Sometimes people are un willing to sell the goods that they want to sell... unless it is really "convenient".
Im not upset i just thought i would say my piece.

Hi Brendan I realised you were serious about the purchase and from my point of view I pointed out the weight of the item and the logistics of sending two or 3 large heavy packages to Perth by courier were probably more risk than I would like to take. If I had the original packaging I may have persued the matter further but the risk was extreme in my opinion. You also have to realise that living in Mt Beauty doesn't gain me access to any form of pack and send courier systems with the nearest being over an hours drive away. The target audience was really Melbourne as I travel up and down to Melbourne quite a bit for family. In this case I could be satisfied the mount would arrive in one piece and I was prepared to deliver to anywhere in Melbourne or local area free of charge. A couple of the offers that were made were about !/2 to 2/3 of my asking price and still wanting the mount delivered free to save on freight charges. As always the decision to sell is mine but I do find it objectionable to recieve rediculous offers and in future will stipulate the price is firm.
I am glad you got a mount and it looks like you did pretty well anyway. Look forward to seeing some images.
My appologies if I upset you with my refusal to send to you in Perth but I certainly value your honesty when looking at the purchase.
