Lets think about what free means here...you get it for FREE (no COST for you), but at my COST??? I have to SPEND the time scanning it (btw its like 2 inches thick) and I have to SPEND the money on CD's to burn them. Not to mention all the time organizing it so you can easily find what your looking for.

So what your saying is that by asking for a mere 10 bucks, versus the 80 bucks I spent to get one, I'm making a profit? How about breaking even?

I am NOT trying to rape anyone on the price...just considering what a reasonable price would be for my time an effort to HELP you.

Well the problem is, why would you do that in the first place?

1) You're out to make a profit by scanning the entire book in once

2) CDs cost no more than 5 cents a piece

3) You sell it for say 9.99, say you sell a couple hundred (math involved)

You spent $80 to get one, where as I spent 5 mins on google to find them. Thats fine, its your 80 and use the FSM well, but don't try to "break even" or even profit off members.

93-98 FSM for D/L, all PDF.

PM me.

I really don't like repeating myself, but here I go:

1) (and the only reason I would do this), IS TO HELP OUT FELLOW MEMBERS, 10 bucks is small potatoes...especially with guys spending 5 grand on motor swaps.

2) I had no idea the FSM is online...personally, that link should be a STICKY, and will save me the time and effort someone else has already endured.

I noticed you had no comment on the worth of your own time...no surprise.

worth of my own time to do what? Find the FSM? All 5 mins of it?

It was available right here on the forum if you SEARCHED.

1) HELPING out members by charging them $10? Thats what you call helping out? How about I help them out for $5 per CD?

When you start charging people for something, the "helping out" is gone, you've essentially created a business.

How many members are on the board here that need/want the FSM?

Please raise your hands.

DUDE, I am talking about your time bro...your labor...what your time is worth....you work don't you?

Charge them 5 bucks, but I would consider that ripping them off, NOW that I know its available online.

Obviously a few people wanted the FSM, they were the one's asking me to scan the WHOLE thing to begin with...thus my idea emerged...simple supply and demand...No need for that...post up the link bro...help everyone out...

How can you sit here and suggest I will make hundreds of dollars, and then ask how many want the FSM, like no one will? Stick to your guns, either I "profit" or I help a few guys out...

You won't profit, not this way at least. I work but I do not condone charging people for stuff that is publicly available with a little internet knowledge.
