• ZERO- WHERE DID MY AD GO?
    • It has likely been deleted for running egregiously afoul of the rules below. Feel Free to try again

    1- DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SELL THE FOLLOWING ON BARF:
    • animals, though free re-homing is ok.
    • anything illegal.
    • drugs, legal or not.

    2- Sellers, for best results... please read and follow these instructions:

    • Asking price [MANDATORY] in the BODY ONLY. DO NOT PUT PRICE IN THE TITLE
      • motorcycle or other vehicle:
        - make [MANDATORY]
        - model [MANDATORY]
        - year [MANDATORY]
        - Pictures [FIRST THING THAT WILL BE ASKED FOR IF YOU DON'T, BUT NOT MANDATORY]
        - mileage
        - title info
        - current condition
        - maintenance history
        - accident history
        - location
      • If selling riding gear, include:
        - size in the title of the thread. [MANDATORY]
        - in your post, include: intended gender/body weight/height/inseam/waist range that best fits the item.

    • Do not include the price in the title. You won't be able to edit it later. Put the price in the body of your post.
    • DO NOT INCLUDE LINKS TO 3RD PARTY SALES SITES Copy/paste your ad to BARF and make sure it includes the info above.
    • Edit your original post and change the price there... many buyers will not look beyond that point if you change the price later on further into the thread. Also, remember to add SOLD to first line of the first post when the item has been sold.
    • Please use the "Report this post to a moderator" (
      report.gif
      ) option at the lower left portion of the post if item is sold or to report erroneous posts or threads, and it will be taken care of.
    • With any indication that an item is sold, the thread will be locked by moderators. It is not fair to other valid ads to be pushed down the list when side discussions bump a sold ad to the top of the list. Moderators will do their best in changing the title and adding a 'sold' to the beginning of the title to save a few clicks for others.


    3- Buyers, BEWARE!!!

    • Pricing - Know the current market value of the bike. Check Kelly Blue book, NADA, CycleTrader, Ebay, Craigslist (even though some people on Craigslist are asking non-realistically high prices and will never be able to sell the bike at their asking price), and know what the current market value of a similar bike is before considering a purchase. Consider the maintenance work or fixes that YOU need to do to the bike, and factor that into the price. It is ok to pay more for a bike that has had all of the maintenance work done to it recently, or pay less and get a bike that needs some work, but you must know this in advance and be ok with it.
    • Inspecting the bike: if you are not experienced yourself, have a mechanic or an experienced friend check the bike before making a purchase. Crashed bikes:This is even more important if you are buying a bike that is being sold at a cheaper price with damages that the buyer is required to fix. In these cases, doing a frame check that will show any frame/fork/geometry damages is HIGHLY recommended. Do NOT simply rely on the information that the seller is providing, even he/she may not be aware of all the problems. Have the crashed bike checked and know what you are getting into.
    • Clean title, Salvage title A clean title doesn't mean the bike is free of serious issues. A Salvaged title doesn't mean the bike may have any problems. Every case is different. Some bikes are seriously damaged in a crash, but an insurance claim is never made on them, so they still have a clean title. Some bikes have had mostly cosmetic damages in a crash, but the insurance company decided to pay off the bike and salvage the title rather than spending the money to fix it. Know what you are getting into and don't make any assumptions based on what the seller is telling you.
    • Registration: Know about the current registration status of the bike. Check with DMV if you have any questions about any possible back fees and other title/registration questions (out of state title, no title with bill of sales only, etc.) before purchasing the bike.
    • Some additional tips: You can find some more useful info here: http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=216958

    4- DO NOT make your opinion known in the seller's ad

    • Comments within a sale thread should be on topic and educational. Aggressive critiques and inside jokes will not be tolerated. Constructive dialogue is a valuable feature of the barf classifieds section and community as a whole. Flame wars and unsubstantiated accusations help neither seller or buyer. Don't fuck it up, because the next step is disabling the "reply" feature entirely.
    • If you disagree with a price, keep it to yourself. The seller has set the price. If you don't like it, don't buy it and move on. If you really feel strongly about it, then PM the seller.
    • If you are interested in an item, feel free to PM, email or contact the seller privately. Feel free to post if you need clarification... however, your post should be in line with above mentioned rules.
    • If you are aware of a serious issue with an ad (SPAM, stolen goods, a frame damaged bike being advertised as a 'never crashed' bike, etc.) please PM a moderator about it.

    5- DO NOT SPAM the classifieds section on BARF

    • Spamming entails using only the classifieds sections of BARF without taking part in other sections of BARF (regardless of whether the ad is for a personal item or a business.) The appeal of BARF classifieds is to enable and connect BARFers with some established history on BARF to one another.

      BARF isn't craigslist, ebay, cycletrader, etc. Buyers who are looking to buy from random strangers do so on one of the above mentioned sites. Those who only post in Classifieds sections and don't take part in other parts of BARF are no different than any other random sellers on Craigslist, etc., and should use channels other than BARF to try and sell their items.
    • If you're affiliated with a store/shop, please contact budman regarding sponsorship options. ALL non-sponsor commercial posts will be deleted. Site sponsors should post using only one account that is assigned a BARF SPONSOR tag.
    • We encourage the use of the classifieds by active contributing members. New members may post in the Classifieds forum after establishing minimal history on BARF (15 days and 15 posts). If you actively attempt to circumvent these minimum requirements only to post in classifieds, your account may be suspended. After reaching these minimums, posting only in the classifieds without taking part in other sections of BARF may result in being banned from BARF.

    6- DO NOT repost funny/strange/not-related-to-you ads from Craigslist or elsewhere on BARF or anywhere else for that matter.
    • No reposting
    • No reposting
    • No reposting. If what you're about to post isn't for sale BY YOU, don't post it.

    7- SELLING FOR A FRIEND:
    • Is not allowed.

    8- Feeler, Testing Waters etc:
    • Is no longer allowed.

      • If you are unsure of the fair price of your item, use the search function to research other similar items, ebay, craigslist, nadaguides, kelly blue book or whatever else is applicable. The classifieds section is not a discussion forum, thus not the place to be asking for opinions on market value that might lead to massive gray areas of conversation that violate preceding rules outlined above.
  • There has been a recent cluster of spammers accessing BARFer accounts and posting spam. To safeguard your account, please consider changing your password. It would be even better to take the additional step of enabling 2 Factor Authentication (2FA) on your BARF account. Read more here.

Watch out- that AFM99 or whatever Mod will direct you to the BARF donation table to post your business on here!
 
Can you do something about how noisy my A/C is? I tested it from 6 ft. away, and it measured 130 decibels.

Also, I'd like the room temperature to be -154 degrees when the fan is spinning at 8500 RPM. Yeah, that's -154 degrees Celsius, not Fahrenheit.

No, wait, I meant Kelvin.

ya, I'll put a better can on it to make near undetectable by people driving, then they'll crash into your house. haha,

you want it 154 Kelvin huh, ok, i'll retrofit your furnace with Nasa grade afterburners instead of little woosy flames, and NOS to speed up the fan revolutions causing your house to slightly levitate when on,
give me 2 days :laughing


If you want a new AC, I can come out and give you a free estimate, I can't just tell you without seeing your place
 
Are you a licensed contractor or are you just doing this for shits and giggles?

Are you a sponsor or a spammer?...
 
7 days already what?

No, I'm not doing this for shit's and giggles, I've been in the trade for years. I have my Associates of Science Degree in HVAC.
I just started my Entrepreneurial adventure in March, pretty good so far.
I have my own van, I have my own tools

I'm not a sponsor, I'm a member of a forum who's looking for more work than I have right now, and am giving an incentive to other members, that I'll do work for less of what others charge because I need more work, and am I'm trying to get my name out there more.
I can come up with whatever deals I want. My name, my business.
I know a little plumbing, but I have no snake machine to clean out your poo and roots of your main line. I've replaced some toilets, sinks, and rebuilt P-Traps before though.

-154 kelvin would indeed be impressive... the whole theoretically impossible thing aside of course.

that's why it would take me 2 days, not 1. I need the 2nd day to formulate a theoretical to realistic conversion, invent it, build it, then install it. ya, I'm that good.

I think with a ton liquid nitrogen I might be able to get it to 200 Kelvin.

I think about 285 kelvin is a little more realistic
F=Cx1.8+32


Anyway, like I said. BARF Members, you want AC serviced faster for less call me (925)325-5900

It's OK for a barf member to plug his gig. Once or twice. Being an advertising outlet is when you need to become a sponsor.

no worries.

This weather should keep you busy...
You can call 800 37 Trane, but we cost three times more. Plus a truck charge.

Clean coils and a full refrigerant charge will give you more cooling, save energy and $$$.

This thread borders on spamming your business. You have made four posts about your ability to do work and need for work. If this continues, you need to contact budman. I suggest you put "USE A PM" in your original post. The KS is NOT the employment forum. Don't use it that way.

but you don't have a contractor's license..... I went to the CSLB website and did a license search under Nathan Pack. Nothing came up. Your AS degree isn't a substitute. I suggest you delete all personal info from this thread before somebody reports you for contracting without a license. Don't worry.....it won't be me. The CSLB is known to do stings on unlicensed contractors. GL

Oh, please. Are you really a plumber? :laughing

Remember.... ___O It's only illegal if you get cought.

ahem.

Yes, I'm a licensed plumbing contractor. BTW I equate contracting illegally like driving without insurance. Nobody really cares until you hit somebody. I just turned down a painting contractors quote even though he was licensed. He was licensed but he claimed exempt for workers compensation but he had employees. That equivalent to being unlicensed by legal precedent(sp?). You don't have to pay an unlicensed contractor after they have completed their work. Talk to a lawyer for any specific situation you might have. I belong to numerous trade associations and I get case updates on a regular basis.

CYA....
 
Can you do a heat/cooling loss/gain calculation and help reroute my ducts to get some better airflow?

Negative 2 story house.. (second floor is on the bottom of the first... yeah, i know) there is like a 5-10degree difference between floors most of the time.. sucks for A/C and heating. Is your work up to code? Do you fix your work if its not? I am looking for some HVAC work done, but I will be getting permits and want all my work done to spec.

I am also looking to relocate my furnace to upstairs in the garage (basically directly above where its located now) hence, why I am also wanting to see about better routing of my ducts and registers. Will also need to make sure that I have proper returns.

Let me know. PM me so we can talk about this..
 
what size are your sprockets? i woulnt trust you to fix ANYTHING based on the backtracking and wolf tickets you slang...

"its the belt it could be the belt but its the solenoid and the pump too, i just dont have my camera mounted on my helmet to prove it was me because i wasnt wearing the camera mounted on my helmet someone else was and he has the proof that i have sprockets"
 
Consequences of Contracting Without a LicenseThe Contractors State License Board (CSLB) was established in 1929 at the request of the building industry. Since work done by contractors can endanger both them and consumers, the industry realized being regulated would help raise standards, thereby protecting consumers.

Those who operate without a license harm consumers each and every day. They tarnish the respectability of the construction industry and harm the state's financial situation by operating in the underground economy.

The CSLB makes a concerted effort to target unlicensed operators. The CSLB's Statewide Investigative Fraud Team (SWIFT) conducts undercover sting and sweep operations on a weekly basis around the state. You could be targeted by one of these operations. If you're caught contracting without a license, you will likely have to go in front of a judge to answer to misdemeanor charges, which carry a potential sentence of up to six months in jail and/or a $500 fine, and a potential administrative fine of $200 to $15,000.

If you get caught again, the penalties get stiffer. You could face a mandatory 90 day jail sentence as well as a fine of 20 percent of the contract price of the work performed, or a $4,500 fine.

Felony charges may be filed against those who illegally use someone else's license or who try to mislead consumers into believing that you are a licensed contractor. In addition, you could face felony charges if you contract for any project that is covered by a state of emergency or disaster proclaimed by the Governor of California or the President of the United States. If you're convicted of felony charges, you could end up in state prison.

Plus, if you contract without a license consumers don't have to pay you for your work. You don't have a right to sue them in court for work you weren't legally able to perform.

In addition, if you've got your contractor's license and have a dispute with a consumer, the CSLB has a variety of tools to help resolve it. These range from on-site negotiation to mediation and arbitration. These services are free of charge to consumers and licensed contractors.

Plus, when you consider the cost of your contractor's license, about $20 a month, you can't afford not to be licensed.
