That was so twisted, you had me busting up! Have you had many taker's?
Posted By: aussiegirl Re: AS for sale - 02/08/12 03:58 AM
I'll chip in my AS and then you can offer a 2 for deal and don't worry about splitting the proffit.

Darn it! You beat me to it, Trish... I was thinking a 2-4-1 deal could be the sweetener that Jeff needed to clinch the sale. eek

I get most of these problems...
Scary seeing it written like that frown

For a supposedly rare condition, I suspect there would be quite a few of these on the market if anyone would buy it.

They say you can sell anything on Craig's List. I think you got something there. Cured and raising funds at the same time.

I think you just need to make the sales pitch more upbeat.

As in my case lots of perks;

AS for sale

options included at no extra charge.

Shiny titanium hips- all the kids want 'em more durable than bone and lots of laughs at the airport metal detector

Free weight loss- without wires intermittent TMJ will provide you with instanteous will power or the power mot to open your mouth to ingest more than liquids

Medical education- doctors , doctors, doctors line up to teach you about more body parts than you can imagine

Serenity and lots of "you" time- get away from it all whenever you want and don't want since you can't go most places

Iam so exicited, I have been looking for a donor for years! I want an extra in case of hard times.
And I am sure it worth more than your asking price, If I decide to resell, I will make bongo profit.

Hey Jeff,

I have a 1995 AS model, my father had a early 70´s model. My dad´s was a classic AS model, bambo spine and all.

Best to you,

Tim

Glad you had a much needed laugh. yes No takers...still waiting smile

Trish and Louise

No...you guys sell your own. Maybe I could sell it with something like a box of toads,old exercise bike or banjo.

Hi Adzy

Sorry if you have these symptoms, I wish I didn't have them either. It would be nice to sell it like an old car sitting in the driveway. A little humor can go a long way. Hope you feel better soon, I've read your other posts, you have a great attitude.
Posted By: ilbcrzn Re: AS for sale - 02/09/12 12:09 PM
Not a big market for it. If it were just a matter of writing an ad and placing it into the local paper, we would all get ourselves there pretty quick.

Steve Steve Steve

I know mine wasn't spicy enough but mine was an ad YOURS was a sales pitch from a used car salesman. Buyer Beware!!! Steve, I don't want to make mine sound better than it already is. Thanks Steve for coming through with your own ad. The airport thing sounds pretty exciting though. I am always slow and apologizing all the way through airport security. With my CPAP machine, med bag and trying to get my shoes on and off I am pretty slow. Can never find a chair either so getting my shoes on is quite slow and painful. I always smile going through knowing I don't have their jobs.

Hi Sue

Yeah....be careful of Steve. He has quite the sales pitch going. His diet program sounds wonderful but I think he is lying.

You must be a collector or hoarder to want mine for a spare. You would never use it and it would just lay there in a corner. Mine seems to need a lot of attention and refuses to be neglected.

How are things going with you? You can PM any time.

Thanks for playing along with some dark humor. Like I told FR. Schmitz when he was complaining about all his car troubles. I said, "Father, cars are not made in Heaven, that is why they go to Hell.

Thanks Tim, hope you are having good weather.

Take Care

Ah Jeff, unfortunately I think it is not a seller's market on this.

Look out for those who will no doubt want to undercut your price... me for instance, I'd be happy to give mine away for free! It is difficult however, to find someone I dislike that much!

Thank you Jeff!!!

First time I smiled in two days..

Price tag on that post: priceless laugh

Hi Mig

Give it away for FREE??? There goes my plan to sell to the highest bidder. You have ruined the market. I had a vacation home picked out....a villa with view of the ocean...oh well. As far as giving it to someone else to relieve my pain...I could never do that. smile
Posted By: ilbcrzn Re: AS for sale - 02/10/12 02:13 AM
Glad you had a laugh...we all need one once in a while yes yes yes

Hang in there!!!!

alan would probably enjoy having a travel companion smile
Posted By: Johninco Re: AS for sale - 02/10/12 07:14 AM
Hell, I keep paying and paying for someone to tow mine away! And I STILL have no takers!
Posted By: Inanna Re: AS for sale - 02/10/12 10:42 AM
Mine's for sale, too, but it comes in pink!!!!

I figure colourful AS is the way to go. Pink's a good colour, right?

Warm hugs,
Posted By: cemc Re: AS for sale - 02/10/12 03:35 PM
Just wondering if there is also a market for the unbranded generic version? Mine doesn't come with the label, but a lot of similar features.

Posted By: ilbcrzn Re: AS for sale - 02/10/12 11:07 PM
I have a feeling we are all going to have to keep ours. I thought I might have a good thing going and unload it on some unsuspecting person but Mig ruined the market.
Posted By: ilbcrzn Re: AS for sale - 02/10/12 11:12 PM
Hi Kat

Pink is great. AS comes in assorted colors. I for one would not pick pink....maybe plaid would be a nice color.

Nice to hear from you, wishing all the best.
Posted By: ilbcrzn Re: AS for sale - 02/10/12 11:42 PM
I guess the brand name doesn't matter, it's the options that count. Except in this case the less options you have the better off you feel. Hope you don't have too many "options" to contend with right now.
Posted By: samzee Re: AS for sale - 02/11/12 02:21 AM
Kat, I like the colour pink and your smile and optimism have always astonished me so maybe I'll take you up on your offer!

Posted By: mig Re: AS for sale - 02/11/12 07:04 PM
Oy - not fair Jeff! I cannot be single-handedly blamed for ruining a non-existent market!

Good try though. smile
Posted By: ilbcrzn Re: AS for sale - 02/12/12 07:02 AM
Nice ad Shari

Now all you need is a "ADD TO CART" icon in the bottom right hand corner. Once you do that you will be rich!!!

I know this is nonsense roll but it did feel good writing the ad. smile

Hey Jeff, I have a tried and true 1969 antique model AS. Now that's a classic that should be worth 2 plug nickles.

Cindy
Posted By: ilbcrzn Re: AS for sale - 02/15/12 07:50 AM


Well hi Cindy

Glad you popped in to say hi!!! Having a classic is always worth more. You are worth more every minute. Isn't that a nice thought. With all the money you are going to make you can buy my inventory of solar powered flashlights. For some reason haven't sold a lot of them. It has been a fun post for me since pain levels are up. Will be getting off the prednisone after my 1st Enbrel shot on the 17th. been on Remicade since 2008. Never realized how well it worked till it quit working.

Any big trips planned??? smile

Hope to hear about your next big adventure.
Posted By: manatee Re: AS for sale - 02/15/12 04:12 PM
Solar powered flashlights???? laugh2 Wouldn't do me much good here. The sun only shines a few times a month in the winter. This has been a fun post and we need more fun. It's a great distraction. I hope we can continue to help you through this transition. So Friday is your first Enbrel? Hope Friday proves to be a new beginning for less pain.

I started planning next years trip as soon as we got home from this last one. cool
Our daughter and hubby gave us a gift certificate for a B&B weekend at the wine country, finger lake area, NY. That will be a quick trip, lots of wine, only and hour away from us. Other than that, the big trip will be next winter again. That was such an awsome trip and reprieve from the winter up here.

Good luck Friday, hope all goes well

hugss

Cindy
