I didn't get to sell it, but I technically saved $350 CAD for my regular rental by notifying the rental car company vs throwing it off a bridge. Plus they upgraded my rental to something that would have been around $550 CAD and I was allowed to bring it back with an empty tank. I have a funny story to tell now, so I'm happy enough with that outcome. Rental car company handled it like a champ. I have had no issues going back to them to rent vehicles. #### happens. How you deal with #### shows character and business acumen. I probably could have asked for more than just a comped rental, but I'm not a dick.
The dude they sent either was a ####ty comedian or very aloof, but he actually asked me if I was certain the guns weren't mine. I'm like, "I'm from Canada, I've been in the US for 8 hours. I'm pretty sure this ain't mine" After that, he asked if it might have belonged to anyone else I was traveling with... because the lady standing 50 feet away with the two kids that I'm traveling with... let me go ask them if it's theirs.  |
For sure, I realized it was a joke, I was just enjoying imagining the possibilities. Sounds like the start of an action comedy to be honest.
"Edward Norton as the grizzled cop is chasing down a hitman (Samuel L Jackson) but he parks his sedan in a fleet of identical ones at the airport drop off and gets away.
Cut to the DoubleF family picking up the vehicle for vacation, and Edward Norton trying to pull them over when one of the DoubleF kids jams something under the gas pedal. Car chase with w/ explosions ensues, rest of movie is a wisecracking DoubleF convincing the cops he isn't the hitman, which he can only do by solving the murders and taking his family on a globetrotting adventure to clear his name."
Or just notify Alamo and give the guns back, totally your choice.
