Found three Princess phones for 30 dollars. All work and are in good shape.  Found them today in Wythville Va at a antique mall. I am pretty happy about the price!

Somewhat like you, I've found myself accumulating 701's and 702's.

I can't put my finger on it.  There's just something sort of neat about them.

What're you doing in Wytheville?

That's a beautiful part of the world, but it's very hard to make a living in those counties, and when you dig into the economics of that part of Virginia it can get a little depressing.

The compromise for me was Culpeper, which is close enough to the Blue Ridge to have a view on a clear day, but still just a 30 min train ride from NoVA, or a 60 minute drive.

That's a nice variety of sets -- Rotary and Touch Tone, with a relatively scarce hardwired 2702.

George I live close to Wythville in WV and in my opinion in is one of the most beautiful places I have seen. I am near a even more sad area in Bluefield/Princeton WV. I am finding lots of phones here recently. They had a Red Push button desk phone for 29 dollars but I passed it up because I already have one.

You almost make me want to drive out there to reacquaint myself with the hills...and to maybe see what phones are around.  :-)
