Unfortunately these are for sale
« on: July 14, 2003, 08:41:25 PM »
This pains me to do this. After my car accident in 2000 I was out of work for over a year. I was able to return to work full time in June 2002. Since then as you can imagine I lost everything Home, car, and my now ex-wife left me and tried to take my son. I went into severe debt which I have been paying off slowly but surely, and even returned to college in fall of 2002. Well once again my trajedy has shown its ugly face.Trust me if I didn't have bad luck I would have no luck at all. I have what the doctors are telling me nerve damage in my right leg. I have already have multiple surgerys on my left leg due to nerve damage, and have loss of feeling below my knee in my left leg. Since this is my ""GOOD"" leg things are not looking good. I have lost my job which I had no benefits through because I was new hire just 2 months prior. My new wife has been looking for a job any job, and none have presented themselves. I am in desperation here. Before I list what I have. I wanted to say Thank you to two very good friends for all of their help. Doug Sterner and Sawmill. I appreciate what you two have done but now I am left with no choice.

So here they are please make offers all are 15lb unless specified, rh single drills, and all equipment has been very well maintained. I also have pics of most.

Faball, Red Urethane hammer sanded. 25games 1 small nick not in track. Excellent condition(SOLD)

16lb AMF Whiplash pearl. 9games excellent condition like new(SOLD)

14lb LANE 1 XL used less then 2 games total Mint condition. After discussing this over with Doug Sterner. We both feel that $130(SHIPPED) is a fair price.(SOLD)

Lane1 XXXL used maybe 4frames mint condition(SOLD).

C300 3ball roller. Used 1 full season great condition.
Still available and I do have pictures.(SOLD)

I accept pay pal, and ship ups with tracking numbers.

Gene

Folks, in light of the situation (which I am well aware of), let's make the offers like only Ball Review members can, and know how.  If I were not on Unemployment, I would offer just to sell it later, because I could sit on it longer, like LiveSpive did when he bought my XL.  The other reason for reselling what I bought would be that I only throw SAWS.  I am sure there ar many here that are able to help out a great cause, for he also has a son (Sammy), and that amplifies things because he is not feeling well, and medicine takes money.  Typhoon, my prayers will be that you stuff sells soon, and at the best possible price you can get.

Sorry to hear about these true problems; makes all mine sound like whining.

What's the pin distance on the Whiplash Pearl & do you want for it?

Typhoon-

I am truly sorry.  How heavy is the xl and what is the pin placement.  Also, How much do you want for it.  Same thing for the xxxl.

On edit I realize you said it was a heavy 14 just was thinking about it for my wife.  Wondered how heavy a 14.

I don't really play cards and I am not 79, but it fits together somehow.

Boy toy I am not sure of exact shipping right off hand, from what I have been told its about 15dollars. So I would say 65 plus shipping. I would go for 80 shipped.



 Thank you all again

To let the truth be told here guys, the XL and XXXL are no more than 2 months old. I can provide you with a receipt as proof of purchase date if needed.

Typhoon is a class act and a great guy. I'd buy the Saws back from him and hold them for a later time but I can't spare the coin right now either.

I have some pics of the Whiplash, XXXL and bag if anyone want to emai lme I can get them out to you.

Sorry to hear of your misfortune - but I'm sure there's some kind of silver lining somewhere.
