Donor Door Problem !!
Well I will be getting my doors next week, had a bit of a problem getting them this week.
My buddie found two doors loaded on a 81 blazer at this shade tree mechanic we have known for years (he has a mini junkyard), he quoted me 120.00 for both, and are in excellent shape with a couple 1/4" dings in each door !! I was a happy camper seeing how another yard wanted 175.00-250.00 per door ! Well I sent my buddie to get them while I was out of town, as he is pulling the first couple bolts another buddy of ours shows up and asks why he is pulling doors off his blazer  My buddy said that he had bought them from the owner, he said, it's not his truck to be parting out. Come to find out the blazer had been at this guys place for 3 or 4 months and the property owner was tired of looking at it and started parting it out. Well I talked to the real owner of the blazer, and he agreed to sell me both doors for 225.00 ( 105.00 more than orig) but still a good deal.

No, both guys also have known each other for 15+yrs and also work together on projects, just a mis communication of what to be sold off the blazer, he had sold the motor and tranny for him with no problems.
