Sure it does its a public forum.
Dont get your pannies in a bunch If you need the cash then fine. I just figured since this is a club and people tend to help each other out then it would be ok to at least let him use it for free as long as you have the deposit. My bad its your tool so do as you please.Ok, let me make something clear here. If i don't know you or we've never met, i'm gonna charge: insert name here - $100 core charge and $20 for rental. Borrow it as long as you need it for... I've done this with several members here and another site.
If i know you and you wanna use the tool, gimme a call and it's yours to use. I usually accept Hacker Pschorr beer (12pk )The studs cost $15 for three from zzp and need to be replaced about every other or every two pulley swaps, so this tool isn't 'free'.
If Bullfrog comes over to my place to do the swap, there's no charge. If he decides to take it with him, the above rule applies.
If tonzcompg04 wants to use it, i'll charge him $50! Bwahahaha

So the studs cost 15 then charge him 15 to use it.
Oh well, I was willing to pay you 150 to use it. Maybe I should upgrade to a press on instead of MPS.
BTW two M8 studs cost 4$ from zzp.
Dont take offense to my post as talking shit I just thought since he was giving you the core that was good enough. I just thought that since we were all part of this club that letting someone use something simple like a puller was not a big deal especially with 100 in your hands. I guess this is not really such a car club community as I thought. Considering everyone's always down each others throat and rippin each other off.... what the hell was I thinking. lol

How am I steppin on your toes? I have nothing to gain from this if they want to pay you then fine its thier decision. I never said "Hey bulldog dont pay this guy shit". I just made a lil suggestion. Like I said b4 no offense to you!! ITS YOUR TOOL. Peace out.
Holy geez guys calm down. If anyone should be bitchin' about paying it's me, not you. I'm cool paying $20. Why? A couple reasons. 1- I'd do the same thing. $150 is a lot of dough for a tool you only use a couple times. Gotta get a return on it to really be worth it IMO. 2- He's letting a complete stranger use a rather expensive tool of his. Gotta have some collateral. 3- I have no frerakin' clue how to use the puller. I'm sure it's pretty easy, but it might be nice to have the guy lend a hand since I've never done it. Labor charge and all that. They guy wants $20. Cool, I'm down with that. Only problem I have is driving all the way out to wherever he lives to do it. I'll probably spend more on gas there and back (especially back with my new pulley) than the $20. Maybe I'll wait 'till he can meet at a club get together or something. Right now I'm not even totally sure when I'll be getting a pulley. I may just wait 'till spring. Who knows? Either way, I don't really see a problem with spending a few dollars to have the dude help me out. I was only asking because I need to know if I'd have to buy the tool when I do get my pulley. That's a lot of extra dough that I'd have to budget for. Paying him $20 still saves me like $100. I certainly got no beef with that.
If he were to do the actual install of the pulley than by all means charge him at least 40.oo for your time.
If you are going to make him do all the work..LEt him use it for free while you sit around and drink beer.
Heck thats what I did for 7 years!!
I bet I have still done more swaps than anyone on this board..and I haven't touched one for about 2 yrs...LOL!!

Maybe this word kinda threw him off as me talking shit but I really was just giving my suggestion. I guess its just my style of helping people out if can. I work in IT and I often help people with their pc problems for free. It not a big deal if people wanna throw me cash but in reality it doesnt matter. If I really needed the money that bad I would start my own little business and make some decent cash on the side. my 02cents that I will keep next time. :lolsign:
