My first post

Long time lurker....first time poster. Well after my mum lost her legs in a snow plow incident, it's been real hard on the family her being a stripper and all that. Dad got into a little trouble after the incident since he was driving the snow plow for the state correction facility and tried to duct tape her legs back on. Sorry I did not mean to digress, but with being blind, deaf and unable to type I just sometimes have to share. With dad gone and mum's job as third base over, with the baseball season being done for the year; money has been kind of tight. To help the family out I bought a metal detector, you know; one of those with the big LCD screen showing what's under the stuff in the pig's pen and I was looking for lead bullets from the Civil War. Why? Well we use the lead to replace the fillings in our one tooth. Can't afford to go to the dentist and it gives mum something to do. Oh darn there I go again. Well when I was looking at the screen, did I mention I was blind..so sad, I saw these two watches and dug them up. Here is a picture and if I was not blind I could give you better quality. With all that said could you please give me an estimate on what these, I can barely read the name..Rolodexs, are worth. Mum would really be happy if we could sell on pigbay and buy a big old bucket of chicken for our annual tooth brushing party on July 4th.





Thanks BUBBA.

This particular model is worth $20.00, but, out of the goodness of my heart I'm going to give you $25.00 for this old watch, and I'll also send you a bucket of chicken for your annual tooth brushing party on July 4th. You only need to pay for shipping, the cost is $25.00. Let me know if you accept the deal. P.S. No need to thank me.

Dear first time lurker. It seems like you are down on your luck so I am willing to sell you this fine trailer home and vehicle for $25. What a bargain! Being from the south, you must realize that this is a great offer! I also have some recreational items that you may be interested in.

Dear first time lurker,

I'm willing to beat Neil's offer. BTW, the man in the pool is part of his package deal, so, think about it you don't really want that, do you?

Ok, this is my deal. I will pay you $30 for both watches and will even pay for shipping and handling. Also, I will have my wife-sister come over every year on July 4th and brush your tooth.

If not enough, I can throw in the collector's DVD copy of Deliverance and if that is not enough, I might be able to get JJ to give up one of his sheep. Let me know via pm.

Dex, you forgot to include chicken on your package deal. I know you're going to thank me so, "you're welcome".

I'll give you $200.00, 10 lbs of lead for your tooth, and 2 legs to replace your moms for the watch. I'll pay the shipping.

Now all I need is for my act of selflessness to be rewarded. Come on little doggie.
