Q: If it dosent sell, i would be willing to offer 200.00 USD
A: As they say in the South, "Bless your little heart", and I will contact you when Acheron becomes Endothermic.

Funny stuff, but I'll bet he meant exothermic!

When I sold my truck a little while back I seriously had to restrain myself, just in case I irritated someone who was potentially homicidal. Some of the questions and offers I got were genuinely comical but it was obvious that they weren't meant to be funny.....after getting my head punched in an uncountable number of times during my school days I learnt not to take the p out of people who don't know what you're talking about,or at least to save it for later
You could use that tank to make something like this, which is what I did.
ps.Buddy I think that guy was implying "when hell freezes over"

That was my take... but I've never met Acheron...

That was my take also-that's why I corrected it for him!
