Default Is Crown Assets really on Kijiji?

This looks awfully like an advert on the CADC website.

Are they testing new waters?

http://www.kijiji.ca/v-heavy-equipme...eel/1219031149

here is the CADC listing

I was misguided.

here is the original CADC advert. Looks like the buyer is trying to pass on what was purchased.

It appears the CADC sale price on November 16 was $3333
https://www.gcsurplus.ca/mn-eng.cfm?...n=392048&lct=L
Since the photos are the same and both listings have the text about the track needing to be removed from the cages before transport (cages are not part of the sale), is it fair to read it as the original purchaser asking $1167 profit (35%) for two weeks ownership and no labour?

What vehicle are these for? Obviously British from BATUS.

Don't forget that he had to pay GST on the purchase, so figure about $165 or so.

Capitalism is what makes this country great....you can't blame a guy for trying to make a buck. I can only imagine the sore back by the time you remove and reload 100,000 kgs of track from those cages and reload them onto some other means of conveyance.

That's exactly what I was thinking! It seems like a hard sell to me...

I can't seem to find the Kijji add and the link doesn't appear to show the track for sale...can someone send me the link or maybe the phone number from the advert? Would be interested in talking to the buyer. Thanks
