Body for Sale
For SALE:
One used, middle aged female body, economy sized, slightly dented, needs body work. Engine takes a long time to get started in the morning, and sometimes it has to take a break during the day if it overheats, but it runs all right for the most part, with only an occassional need to replace or repair a broken part. The carpet has been removed, but the paint job has been touched up a little, so it doesn't look too bad. Admittedly, it has been in a few emotional wrecks, and the heart has been broken a few times, but the current 'owner' has really helped a lot in repairing the damage there. Considering the current market, this body is going cheap - place your bid today or leave a message if you have any questions.
Also for SALE:
One teenaged boy who is responsible for a few of the dents and damage to the above listed item. If you buy the item listed above, the boy comes free. Just a bonus, shoot, I won't even charge shipping! In fact, I might offer a bonus if you plan to take this item!
Other Items For Sale from this seller are:
* 'Adult' college student - you can buy this item, but it never seems to do what it was intended to do anymore, so I'm not sure how useful this item would be; however, if you yell enough, this item will wash the dishes. I've also found that sometimes this item will run errands in between talking incessantly on the cell phone.
* Cats - we currently have six (6) cats listed for sale - we are keeping some for ourselves, so you can tell this is a fun item to own - but there are some left over after the ones we picked out, and you are welcome to any one of them.
* Two dogs. One of them is a puppy. They're cute. No, really, they are.
* This seller has an assortment of EXes available from which to choose - all shapes and sizes, makes and models...no need to hurry, this selection will probably be available for a long time to come - and if you promise to never return them for a refund, I'll sell them for cheap!
Today only, I'm having a buy one, get four(4) free sale on the kittens and the EXes...and if you order soon, I'll even throw in the user's guide for the particular EX you receive...maybe you can make more sense out of it than I did!
There are discounts of purchasing multiple items.
That's all for now, but the store is growing, so check back soon for new items! I think we will be able to offer one cell phone, previously owned by college student, really soon, provided the crowbar used to peel it from her ear doesn't ruin the surface. Also, a DS and PSIII might be offered soon, since the husband and the boy child can't seem to pull themselves away from it either!
Thanks, and have a great day!
