Title: Another Possible Rose Beige Mini 500
Post by: HarrySmith on November 13, 2017, 12:15:34 PM
Just bought another possible Rose Beige Mini 500. Thanls to Christian for the heads up. Not sure about the color but she replied to me that it was Taupe and then Grayish Brown. I went for it. We will see in a few days.

Great news, Harry!  I love it when bad pics work in our favor.  Remind us of the colors you still need- I know Med Blue.  Which others?

Ok, took some pics today. Outside in bright South Florida sunshine it looks Gray. Under my work light inside it is closer to the real color. It is still just a bit darker than the picture.

Just spotted on eBay what I think is another rose beige mini 500. It is in a group of 2 mini phones. I finally have mine but thought someone else might be interested.

I saw that auction also, but this one looks darker than normal. It might be the lighting.
