[spam] PDAs for sale

[ewt]

I recently goofed on eBay and managed to buy not one, but three of these Palm LifeDrives, factory-refurbished quality. Two of them are, predictably, surplus to my requirements.

Two of them should be arriving on Monday, hopefully the third won't be much longer than that.

I would like to sell them. Two available; £140 each plus postage will cover my costs (yes, posting these from the US and paying customs and so on was not cheap), obviously if we can meet up then you don't need to give me postage money and I don't need to waste packaging and so on posting the things.

They're coming from the US so they probably have US plugs on the adapters; the adapters are a fairly standard piece of kit and available cheaply on eBay. The adapters ARE multi-voltage, so if you'd rather just use a plug-shape-change device, you can.

A few of you have expressed interest; this is your chance to confirm that interest. I'd rather not go to eBay as having the money in a hurry would be good.

I'm interested, though I don't think I expressed interest previously.

If I don't hear from both of the other people who initially expressed interest by Monday, I'll let you know.

Sounds like a good plan :)

that was me

Um. I'm not sure I'm interested, actually; it seems there isn't a perl port for this platform.

I remain interested, though with such things I'd need to play with it (an hour at the Pembury would suffice) to know whether I'd definitely buy.

Is that £70 each, or £140 each BTW? The above is ambiguous.

[ewtikins.livejournal.com]

Sadly it's £140 each.

I can bring one to the Pembury on Tuesday night (well, assuming that they actually do get delivered on Monday) if you like.

Weekdays are tricky for me... Can I get back to you? Acknowledging that you could do with cash soon and I'm not being helpful, if someone else makes an offer before I get my arse in gear you should take it.

[ewtikins.livejournal.com]

If you can let me know the day before (ie Monday night), that would be good. I usually drop along to the Pembury on Tuesdays anyway, so it's just a matter of remembering to bring stuff with me.

If there's a day sometime soon when you're working from home I could drop by fairly easily.

The WFH option is the more likely one to work. I'll be in touch.

I'm interested, but unfortunately my bank balance objects is leaping up and down shouting at me and waving little red flags. :( I don't think you'll have any trouble getting rid of them though.

I mentioned it to a friend and they are definitely interested if you haven't gotten rid of all of them yet.

Definitely as in "I will buy one"?

This would be great. I haven't actually managed to shift one yet.

If they are local and cash can change hands easily/quickly, I could bring one to Aikido tomorrow night easily enough...

Definately as in "Get it and I'll give you the money back when I see you" I can write you a cheque for it tomorrow (or get cash if you really prefer).

Sorry, that was me.

Excellent, I'll bring it tonight.

Cash would be quite good if you can get it easily but if not do not worry, cheque will be okay.
