===============================================

Look, dudes, it's a MOVING-SALE situation.  If
these items don't go to GOOD HOMES IMMEDIATELY,
they're just gonna get thrown to the curbside
as soon as the landlord kicks me out.  Please
read the note below about LOWBALL OFFERS.

===============================================

(a)
Color NTSC TELEVISION MONITOR (its a Commodore
1084S for the AMIGA)... If you plug the
Video-Out from your VCR into this, it's an
AWESOME and CRISP little 12" video monitor!!!
$40 OBO

(b) 
Panasonic XBR superbass BOOMBOX with graphic
equalizer, radio, (non-working tape players)
and the all-important LINE IN ports!  You can
buy a $2 cable at Economy Hardware and plug
your CD player into these line-in ports for
out-loud SOUND (for some reason, boom boxes
sold today don't seem to have line-in ports,
believe me, I've checked!!)
$20 OBO

(c)
Smith Corona electric TYPEWRITER,
works great, all keys operational!!!
$10 OBO

(d)
Manual old-fashioned HUMAN-POWERED mechanical
typewriter!  All keys on this one work too!!!
Click Clack!!  Fingerfuck the Mugwump!!
$8 OBO

(e)
Apple II monochrome composite 9-inch VIDEO
MONITOR --- you can also plug your VCR's
Video-Out into this one, for a little green
TV monitor 
$10 OBO

(f)
Samsung MICROWAVE OVEN --- you've seen the ads
with sexy, well-built people holding on to
sleek Samsung microwave ovens, now you can have
one of your own!!!
$30 OBO

(g)
13" Color TV, UHF and VHF 2-13 knobs,
YOU KNOW IT, BRO!!
$30 OBO

(h)
Sofa Chair --- something big soft and
plush to sit on as you read or enjoy
watching the TV mentioned above.
$20 OBO

(i)
Awesome KING SIZED MATTRASS --- put some sheets
on this mofo and SLEEP TIGHT!  SWEET DREAMS!!!
$40 OBO

==============================================

Sure, everybody wants cheap stuff (FREE MONEY?
BRING IT ON OVER, STUD, I DON'T MIND AT ALL!!)
but don't insult me by making OBOs (which
stands for Or Best Offer) of much less than the
asking price.  I'd rather THROW THIS STUFF AWAY
than sell it for much less than the asking
prices listed above.  Not a very sound business
model, eh?  But if you originally paid out lot$
of ca$h for these items, and then some smarmy
lowballer offered you $2.50 for them, you'd
understand what I mean...
