[GreenKeys] Equipment available

[Nick]

 I was surprised about the response to yesterdays announcement that I will make some of my equipment available.

Before you read further, let me make a few things clear:
a.  I am not giving my machines away like popcorn !!!
b.  I am NOT trying to make a profit here !!!
c.  I am selling inexpensive to cover my purchasing price I paid and the costs of the restorations ONLY  !!!
d.  Again, NO profit involved what so ever !!!

I guess I already scared 50% of all the people away from here. Let me intensify this a little more by saying that all possible shipping-charges are on you. Please be aware that we are dealing here with heavy metal. Shipping-charges could go through the roof. Due to weight, size of the machine, possible crates and oversize boxes and/or possible fright could make matter worse. Please do your homework first and ask me how much shipping it will be to a particular location. Personal pickup or private transportation (like we discussed yesterday here on the list) would be best in order to avoid horrendous and outrages shipping-charges.

I guess I scared another 25% away - haha, just kidding !!!

Having said all this, here is finally the list of goodies including prices and brief descriptions:

Paragraph  " m "  is breaking my heart - but because of my piss-poor internet connection here at the house, I can not enjoy the machine nor the i-Telex system the way I like to. Well, it is what it is - I made my decision.

Two pictures of each items are followed in my next mail here in a few minutes (I don't want to overload the server). If you need additional pics, please let me know.
