So do I just add water?

Yeah, sure. You then get a kind of ash paste, which is great.. if you're into ash paste.

Well I had to take a perfectly working one to the tip a couple of weeks ago. Tried my best to give it away. Put up a post on here. Also put one on a Jamma forum. As some of the members on there have older consoles which work great on a 4:3 TV. Really could not give it away, a bit like Lee's cabinets.

Yes, I remember!! But you gave it your best.

My waiting continues.

Ah well...

What I hate the most is when people just toss BeoVisions.

The only one interested will be a retired orphan student with a disability and no car, 250 km away.

Close! more like 5250km away though!!!

Shoot... This would be a perfect excuse to get a BeoVision!

Things like this always make me cringe. What I hate the most is when people just toss BeoVisions. Here I am staring at a Sanyo wishing for someone to SELL me an old B&O CRT... Recently someone bought an AV5 for $50!!! I have been actively searching for one of those! [:'(]

After the stuff has been demolished, there are folks all around shouting "why didn't you offer it to me"...

Human nature.

I often get calls from exasperated customers who have made the decision to visit my website to reserve an item they've been pondering over for days, only to find it's already been reserved..

They come out with statements like 'is it really sold - because if not, i'll have it now' and 'you have no idea how much i wanted that item, please sell it to me and tell the other person it's sold already..' (which won't get anyone anywhere in my books)

So, i tell them that if the other customer drops out i'll call them. This always gets a 'oh, thank you - i so hope they do. My credit card is right in front of me and i want it now!'

Three days or so later, the person who reserved it has had a shock on the shipping quote or can't raise the money - so you call 'Mr X' who has been hopping up and down to buy it and now it's 'available' you get a nonchalant reply like 'oh great - err.. i'll have a chat with the wife and get back to you..'

I've never understood that one..

The best sign i ever read was in a car dealership's sales office.

"The car you looked at today and will decide to buy tomorrow

Is the car someone looked at yesterday - and will decide to buy today"

The owner of that business was a multi-millionaire by the way...

Some guy bought a new fridge for his house.
To get rid of his old fridge, he put it in his front yard and hung a
sign on it saying: 'Free to good home. You want it, you take it.'
For three days the fridge sat there without anyone looking twice.
He eventually decided that people were too mistrustful of this deal.
So he changed the sign to read: 'Fridge for sale $50.'

The next day someone stole it!

A few years ago i bought some flats in the town centre and the same thing happened.

I ripped out three crappy old kitchens and some dirty old appliances - and to keep the skip clear of clutter i put a notice on them all saying 'please do not take these items - they are valuable and will be for sale soon'

Every morning the stuff was gone. The sign was the prompt i think... LOL

We get plenty of stuff like this which really, you cannot give away - so it ends up taking the expressway to skipville.

Reminds me of that old joke / urban myth:

sign on it saying: 'Free to good home. You want it, you take it.'
