Found this add on craiglist in my area. Its suppose to be 200 G and all the guy wants is "somewhere around $100." Id hate to get it and take it home and it leaks after they said it would hold water. Advise me about how i would go about makin this deal. Look at the pics, to me it really doesnt look like 200 about more like 180.

100$ still seems like a good deal, just reseal it when you get it.

It looks taller than a 180 to me. It might be a 220? See if the seller will fill it with water prior to your coming over to look at it. If it holds water, that's an awesome deal.

Looks like a 150 to me. Have you asked for the dimensions? I would be willing to reseal it for $100

180's are 25" tall and that one looks taller than that so he may be right that it's a 200 g.
Just have him fill it before you get there and stand around for a bit talking to him to see if it's going to hold water or not. It doesn't take long to drain one if you decide to buy it.

If for some reason he doesn't want to fill it up, I guess that answers the question, anyway!

ask if you can fill it up inside... and it looks like a 150. get him to measure it.

 

[Camshaft Ramrod]

not bad. looks old. even if he filled it up and it held, if it were me, I would reseal it. Not a big deal. Go for it. A little tall for my taste.

If I were the seller I wouldn't fill it up either if I were selling it for so little. That's my water bill your talking about. I would just plan on resealing it.

thanks for the reply's, he emailed me back sayin that it does hold water but hes doesnt know the exact dementions of it. So i got mixed replys 220-150, hard to tell what exactly it is.
