Is there anyone on the forum that would be willing to go check out a board on craigslist, buy it, and ship it up to SF Bay area?  Would be willing to throw in reasonable $$ above your costs to make it worthwhile.

forgot to mention that if you can talk the seller down (likely!) you can keep the difference.

John, Morro Bay. That's hop, skip and a jump from SF.

Morro Bay is only 3 hours away from Santa Cruz... and that is adding a half hour for a stop at Big Bubba's BBQ in Paso Robles.

Why not drive? You could leave in the morning and be back home for dinner (if you are not already full of BBQ).

yup, could do.  Just thought I'd throw it out there since I'm impatient and a little car ride with a couple of young kids apparently takes a month to plan in my household

Ah, kids. That's different. I just spent a little more than a week with my four grandkids. Herding cats, takes at least an hour to get out the door, and that's if I push hard.

You might offer a little extra for the guy to drive it up.  Sometimes, sellers will do that if they get their price and don't mind a bit of touring.

Plus there's the added confusion of telling them you're going to Morro today. 


Like when my friend told his son, "We're going to Miami at Christmas", and later on his son asked, "When did you say we're going to your Ami?"
