E-gad!  9 dollars and 9 cents?!  For a May of 52' 500?!  Methinks there was sorcery at work here lads.  That or a seller who clearly was uninterested in making any money off that sale.

[Dan/Panther]

He reduced the price, and still had a hard time moving it.
If Bill opens it up, and it's a 49, refurbished in 52.
Bill has assured me, if that is the case, he will transfer ownership back to me, and I will replace it with another early 50's 500.

[Bill Cahill]

Pay no attention to him! He's jealous!
I have NO intention of relinquishing ownership!!!!

Ah... My book of sorcery worked very nicely......

oh I envy you all, you can easily buy your 500 there in the states

[McHeath]

I think there is something criminal about this price, and I will have to report it to the proper authorities who will probably then insist that I be allowed to inspect the phone to make sure of it's authentic phoneability.

Or something like that...

[Dan/Panther]

McHeath;
Do you have any idea how many times I've slammed my head down on the table since I told Bill about that phone. What a brain fart that was.

[McHeath]

I know the feeling.   

[Bill Cahill]

  I'm glad I'm getting so much attention!!

[Bill Cahill]
