I feel that I am a millionaire now since I have about 1000 trees.

Hmmm... 2 brown sweet ones (brown turkey?) and a green sour (?) one...all that for $7000!  Who could pass that up?

The people on this forum could easily control the world economy if that was the case...LOL

Rewton , that's where my mind went - 2 Bt's . But what's a  green sour ? Doesn't sound remotely appealing! 

Tami - true !!  LOL!!

As they say, a little knowledge can be dangerous .

For a mere $7,000 you too can be the owner of a green sour fig!

That has to be a joke! 

One can buy a lot of 2 - 5 year old fig trees for that cost. Easily a few thousand. 

People can dream of finding a sucker, they say one is born everyday. Clearly an educated consumer is not what he is looking for...

Something tells me someone is sitting and reading this thread and getting a kick out of it.

This cannot be real. I'm not buying it ( so to speak ).

giggle.

For that money you can buy the entire orchard of this guy, probably

OMG, here is another tree for sale http://newjersey.craigslist.org/grd/3999888700.html
a few trees for $2560, much cheaper than 3 for $7000.

P. T. Barnam gets the credit but..... ""There's a sucker born every minute" is a phrase often credited to P. T. Barnum (1810–1891), an American showman. Though this phrase is often credited to Barnum, it was more likely spoken by a man by the name of David Hannum, who was criticizing both Barnum and his customers." ...according to Wikipedia and we all know their word is gospel! lol :D

Oooohhh, and it will bloom for you all season long!!!

$2560.....is that Nutley NJ or NuttJob NJ ?

Sometimes some people do forget about or placement of the (in)famous decimal point?

Gorgi, yeah I figured there are missing decimal points in both ads....just poking a little fun. :)

If that's true. Then $70.00 for 3 big trees and $25.60 for several big trees are steal.

Its fun to search craigslist.  Look at this ad for some nice varieties.

Maybe if the person with the ad is on this forum they can tell us if they ship?

Ha so I am just curious and made a few phone calls.
It turns out that the $2560 is indeed a typo. The lady meant to enter $25-60. I am going to visit her tomorrow.
The 3 tree for $7000 is probably for $70.00. She is sending the video to me and want my best offer.

Go Jimmy Go !! ....and good luck with your purchase.

Now this one doesn't list any prices...  But he does list Madeira, black triana, and a gold turkey (that's a new one for me)
