Blizz's Tire Service!

Who HONESTLY would take advantage of or ask Blizz to change their tires?

This is a POLL...not a public BASHING of one mans idea...maybe this poll will help James get a realistic idea as to how much help he would get for paying for it....who knows.

alright lets try doing this thing.
my paypal is [email protected]
if there is not enough money contributed by March 31, 2010 all funds will be returned to their owners.
if you contribute through paypal make sure you supply your full name as well as your BRN screen name and phone number so i can keep track of who and how much.
minimum contribution of $20 please.
send the money as a "Personal gift" so paypal doesnt get the 3% fee.

I think it's a great idea to have Bailey change them, if he's willing to manage all of that, rather than paying so much at the shops!! Come on BRN'ers support our local guys not snake river!

Right now there are 7 interested that would be $100 a piece. I am ok with that. I dont know about anyone else. It would pay for itself in 2 changes.

I'd throw 100 in.

I say you do it on a tier system. $20 gets you access to do your tires and only your tires whenever you need. $100 gives you full access to do whatever you want whether that is charging others for your service or doing all of your friends tires.

In his other thread he specifically stated that anyone would have access to it at almost all times. But yes, people would have to understand that there may be times when you cannot get to it and arrangements need to be made, etc.

I'd throw in 20 and if you caught me on a good financial day maybe more. My only real concern and why I've always gone to a shop would be scratching the Chrome. I'd need help for at least the first couple times but after that I'm sure I could handle it myself.

shaner, so that benjamin could get access to the tire changer, the beer in Baileys fridge, and after watching the dvd on how to work the machine, might as well delve into the rest of Bailey's dvd collection

Yes, he will only get 97% minus a $0.30 processing fee. Believe me, it adds up quick! If sent as a "personal" "gift" bailey will receive the full amount.

I have a harbor freight machine, but if this one is as good as you say, and if bailey never moved out of the valley it is worth it.

I included the free tire changes in my warranty when I bought my bike, so now I have a machine, friends who would help me and a dealer to change my tires.

I really feel special now

I am in the process of trying to cancel my Paypal account and get a new one in my name. My current account was in Jodie's name. I don't want to use it because I can't close it till all transactions are completed. So, come the dead line if you still don't have money from me remind me and if need be I can get it to you through other means.
