The Last of the Subaru Bucks, 50% of face value

I finally got rid of my Subaru Chase Card for something more useful to me now, and I've got $400 worth of Subaru Bucks. At any Subaru dealer or retail outlet (online or otherwise) that takes Subaru Bucks, they are as good as $400 cash.

I'm getting rid of these $400 in Subaru Bucks for $200 cash, or best offer.

You can post your offer here or send me a PM. The best offer will be chosen on Wed., Aug 25.

And some logistics that can help us both...

If the person giving the best offer would rather I buy the item(s) directly (because he's squeamish about Subaru Bucks) and have me sell it to them personally, you give me 50% of your offer up front in cash, the item(s) must be close to or more than $400 in value, gets shipped to me and when you give me the rest of your offer (plus any amount over $400 if the item[s] cost more than that) I give you your far more valuable item(s). If you go this route, I'm not planning on helping you with warranty, returns, etc... in other words, you're far better off paying me for the Subaru Bucks up front and dealing with the parts shop yourself.

*** MAKE SURE THE SHOP YOU WANT TO PURCAHSE PARTS FROM TAKES SUBARU BUCKS ***
... in other words... I've got no use for these. You buy them, they're yours. Don't worry, the old farts around here know I'm honest and pretty darn generous. I just like to sound mean and old. OK, well I am old, but I'm not mean... not usually...

Does it have to be the full 400? The suby parts I want only come to a grand total of about $140.

Saying that I'd "really prefer it" is an understatement. I just don't have the personal time to piecemeal this process.

Besides, I'm selling this at a relatively low % of face value. You'll see other posts where folks are selling them, successfully, at 75%. You could buy my Bucks and then make some money back, quite easily.

I'll meet you in the FiDi tomorrow to buy them. However, just want to make sure it'll be easy to use since your name is on the vouchers. Never used Subaru Bucks before, but I'll be taking it in for some minor services soon.

I've never known anyone to have a bad experience with traded Bucks... but I have heard the "Oh I heard once" stories where people had trouble at some stores. I'm giving no guarantees... check around for experiences on i-Club. Caveat Emptor!
