Might have been smarter to sell before moving, huh?

Brand new. That thing is probably worth about $5K maybe and in this economy closer to $4k this time of year. Could be stolen or could be a guy who needs a quick sale.

1. Selling a snow "machine" (TM)-Sarah Palin in Miami was my first chuckle.

2. It's a $5k-$6500 sled for $1900, in Miami.

3. No phone number or way to contact, the ad is in English and it is in MIAMI.
