There a train set at the Goodwill on Franklin rd. It's an auction, which means I don't have it yet. And it ends in about 10 hours. The snag is its pick up only, which means I'd need to ship it too. It would be about $20-25 to ship. Of course I'd sent payment plus more.
I'm not going to waste anyone's time by bidding if theres no one there to pick it up. It's a kid's train. Next year the boy will be a year and a half old for Christmas time, and even now he's mesmerised by trains. Be nice if he had one that he could tip over and not destroy.
Let me know if you can do it. I'd appreciate it.

Any idea how flexible they are for pickup? That's about an hour out of my way for my normal travels, but I'd be pretty close by traveling to my brother's place, and could probably make up an excuse on a weekend.
Can you confirm the address? 41XX Franklin Rd in Indianapolis (NE Indy)? Or the one in the town of Franklin, IN (just south of Indy)?
You also might message Indy_Guy. No idea if hes available, but I think he might be the closest, assuming it's the one on Franklin Rd in Indy, and not the one in Franklin, IN.
DAMNIT APPLESEED. You have PM.
In reply to STM317 :
If its anything like the one in Rockford, Illinois, I have a week to make payment and probably another week to pick it up. Pick-up window is 9-4:30pm Monday through Friday. The address is
4105 N Franklin Rd
Indianapolis, IN 46226
In reply to Appleseed :
What's the store's address?
That pick-up window rules me out at the moment
No worries. I don't expect anyone to drop everything for this. Don't go too far out of your way.
In reply to gumby (Forum Supporter) :
ditto. Plus I'm on the wrong side of town
Mtn, check your PM! STAT!
We busted. Sniped at the last minute. Thanks all for the effort.

Sorry Appleseed, I did not see this. Responded, but far too late.
No worries. Will still keep an eye out for Playmobil stuff for you.
