Martin housing for sale in TX

I found some martin housing for sale in TX on craigs list. Looks like the guy is getting out of the business. From the pics it looks like he's got a real nice gourd rack and gourds. Can't really tell about the housing in the background. I just put in "martin house" in texarkana.I thought if anyone close might could use it, you might get a good deal. He didn't give any prices. This is what he put in for a phone no. 903-two78-one six 3 two.

I wish I lived closer!

If I had been working for the last 2 months, I'd already be on my way!

I'd be real interested to know what he's asking for those items. I like that gourd rack set up.

Of course, I have no business expanding, I don't have any martins in the housing I've got!

That housing does look interesting. The gourds are tunnel type with a large access lid and he has owl guards on them. I looked at two different postings on these items I think. One gourd picture was taken on a cloudy day making it hard to see clearly. The other was taken on a nice clear day.

I noticed he or she had predator guards on each pole. I only do gourds so didn't look closely at the other housing. One appeared too be a trio.

If I lived close and was thinking at all about more housing, I would sure call to get more information.

Hey Gobbler T quit givin' out my phone number on this forum!!!

Man I never thought this would show up on here! LOL! What's funny is, I was just surfing craigslist for martin stuff, but nothing really caught my eye, so I thought I would see what's new at the PMCA forum and one of the topics is "Martin housing for sale in TX", so I thought hey I better check this out and it's me!!!

I'm keepin' those gourds and owl guards, those are TVG's, the ones that went with this rack are big bo gourds and my trios aren't for sale they just got in the picture, the S&K houses and poles are for sale and the gourd rack is. The gourd rack is the older style deluxe gourd rack.

Ha, Ha, Ha, That is funny.

Hey, M.Stephens I was going to offer $5.00 a gourd you throw in the guards and rack. That is if you deliver. Indiana isn't too far is it.

Ha Ha.

Only kidding. Good luck

Hey Tom, I'll trade you those S&K's for those PMC-24 trio's you got !!

I'm serious!!!

Just thought I'd "help a brotha out"!

Are you a car salesman? That picture could sure be considered a bait and switch if the gourds are not for sale!
