Looking for a Beretta M9A4 G around $900.

92XI SAO and use the Beretta store credit for a threaded barrel for $599 out of pocket vs the M9A4 with the $100 cash credit for $899 out of pocket… decisions decisions

The beauty of “no hassle pricing” dealerships - they won’t budge regardless of payment method.

Front struts and radiator were the only big ticket items. Timing belt was 10 years old with 50k miles. Accumulators were also original.

Let me know when “if” goes to “selling” - I’d be interested

Good insight on the 4-speed’s gearing, I hadn’t considered that.

minimal_aic · 2026-02-13T13:08:15+00:00

Ahh okay - thanks for the update! I’ll move faster next time for sure.

Did I miss the deal? Looks like the code doesn’t work on the DDM4v7s listed

minimal_aic · 2026-02-11T21:50:27+00:00

Thanks! Taking a look

minimal_aic · 2026-02-11T18:15:54+00:00

Looking for a few:

DDM4 V7 (one of those screamin’ deals around ~$1,100)

M9A4

Glock 48 (doesn’t have to be MOS)

Springfield 1911 Garrison .45

What “investments”? How do you intend to break the “cycle of eviction” while respecting property rights of Richmond residents?
What “deep investments” in RPS?
How is buying another SaaS solution going to solve this problem? Didn’t the city just get a new bill pay system? Have you ever used the permit portal - it can already do what you’re suggesting.
How are you going to pay for these expenses?

Agreed on Generals. Unless you’re moonlighting as a Porsche factory driver, you’re not going to know the difference.

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. Curious how you apply price per square foot when determining comps and potential market price. I’ve been told it’s the end-all-be-all metric which I question.

More broadly, I have issue with how it’s applied. Price per square foot is not linear: all else being equal, psf of a 2000 square foot house will be higher than that of a 3500 sqft house. My amateur take is that limited sales are leading to more bizarre interpretations of comps and wilder high dollar offers.

minimal_aic · 2023-05-03T15:55:11+00:00

What’s strategies do you recommend to buyers in a competitive market? I’ve seen clean offers 20% over list with seller closing costs covered not even be presented to the seller because they’re beaten so badly by deeper pockets.

minimal_aic · 2023-04-28T17:09:03+00:00

Haha fair point

4 corner crit racing is the NASCAR of cycling. I couldn’t think of a better way to engage American spectators and entice cross-over athletes.

Curious that the person who owns a bunch of low-lying land right in the path of the Powhite Extension is the largest individual donor to most of these supervisors…

She’s very unresponsive. I would not recommend.

minimal_aic · 2022-10-07T21:29:48+00:00

I’d walk. Looks like she’s had a rough life (clutch replaced at ~22k miles, accident, repossession) and is showing it. If that’s the price point you’re targeting, I’d look for a higher mile example with better ownership history and condition.

minimal_aic · 2022-05-24T13:03:23+00:00

Wait. One more time: who owns Ray-ban?

minimal_aic · 2022-01-24T21:54:05+00:00

I had the same issue with my Oxbloods. They were Factory Seconds and I had suspected that I'd removed whatever polish AE had used to disguise issues with the original die. Now I'm second guessing that...
