Title: If anyone close to Lafayette INDIANA needs some bakers racks...

This guy was gonna sell me 2 for $100 and he has like 30 to sell.

I was asking him where he was and he mumbled something something INDIANA.  Poo!

Asked him if he'd be interested in cutting them and shipping but he didn't seem interested, said it wouldn't be worth it to me.  They are 18x26 so they would need to be cut and extended, but obviously not hard.

Hope someone can take advantage of what I couldn't.

go to an ISS or SGIA show, you can usually find a deal on the racks there.

Just missed SGIA this past year... just wasn't in the cards at the time.

I'd rather go to ISS as well since it's a little more screen printing orientated, but it is in Dallas vs N.O. so 6 hour trip vs 2 hour trip (one way).

What kind of deal are we talking? (PM me if you don't want to blast it out here).

I got my rack which fits 23x31's for $196 including shipping.  We got it from Kodiak equipment.

Baker's racks? Deals at shows? Closer to you in Louisiana?

LOL that's outside the box.

While I'm there I could swing down south and visit that other guy that runs that other forum. BWAHAHAHA

or check out a used equipment dealer.  A lot of bakers went tango uniform when the price of wheat spiked a few years back.  I bet there are tons of racks out there cheap.

We got a LOT of fat people in this area... and the oil field is BOOMING (despite what you might read/see), we are really not hit with "recession" unless the bottom drops out of the oilfield.

you might need to look out a ways, I bet you could gobble some up a couple hours outside of your area.
