[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I Think OP overvalued the treadmill, which is why she couldn’t get anyone to buy it for months.

It is also not easy to move. You can’t just throw it in the back of your car. The person probably backed out because it was a pain to coordinate a move.

There are always new models coming out. Literally every single gym on earth will have a treadmill. You can run outside for free. It is not the hot commodity that OP thinks it is. I feel sorry for OP she is this upset about not selling her treadmill and how petty she is that she would rather leave it than give it to her friend.[/quote]

As OP explained the air quality in this city is so bad that people actually cannot run outside for free. And it's not like OP was asking top dollar for the treadmill. She was selling a 1-year-old treadmill for 50% of what she paid, and once the original buyer backed out, she probably would have accepted far less. But the friend wanted it for FREE. And you think OP is petty? No. You are not entitled to get your friend's expensive items for free just because your friend is in a bind with a move. Who thinks like that? Not anyone I'd want to be friends with, I'll tell you that.[/quote]

Yeah why couldn’t she at least offer to take her to a nice dinner or get her a spa treatment to say thank you.  What a taker.  [/quote]

But according to OP, she was more or less on her way out of town.

Also, why should friend subsidize something that OP couldn’t sell anyway?

I mean, this is not how I would
Have approached it, but really, Friend didn’t do anything wrong. It just cost us a few hundred dollars to have a treadmill dismantled and moved downstairs. What people are willing to pay for it, it wasn’t worth the move, but it’s a cost we had to incur to try to sell it.

It moved literally across country with us and now is sucking up space in our new house as it won’t fit down the stairs. Honestly, I should have offered it for free when we left but we tried to recoup the pretty inexpensive cost to have it moved downstairs.

Treadmills aren’t worth anything other than what you paid from the vendor. I don’t care where in the world you are. [/quote]

You're really missing the point[/quote]

No, the whole point of this thread is that friend is richer than OP and taking this valuable treadmill and OP is very upset about this.[/quote]
