One for Brad. I know the for sale forum is closed, but am I allowed to post up some 'give away' items?

Brad has kindly permitted me to post my CRT order consolidation project from the ETF in the US.

https://vintage-radio.com.au/default.asp?f=6&th=288

We are approaching a container load and the pricing is extremely interesting. Lots of now-dark Aussie vintage TVs will be brought back to life with NOS CRTs.

So my guess is Brad won't mind something that benefits the restoration community.

Given that I didn't expect to run into a time constraint with making the needed modifications, I don;t have an issue with give aways, swaps or small sales being posted in General Discussion but there are not to be any commercial sales posted, as this is what led to the Wanted and For Sale forum being locked in the first place. Those sales will need to wait until the forum re-opens. To clarify, a commercial sale = sales of components and other goods including dial glasses, knobs, cabinet repair services and the like.

UPDATE: I've been reading some other posts here so I'd better clarify component sales to including recommending purchasing from any member. Whilst this seems a bit strange, again, commercial sales, and the fighting there-in, led to the closure of the Wanted and For Sale Forum and I will delete such postings.

Maybe at last I can get rid of this box of pulse phones that have been cluttering up the place. Perhaps I could also start disposing of my collection of radios too.

Start a new thread for any new sales and sales postings must have the price stated.

BurntOutElectronics : I need to dig them out, when I do I'll make a new thread as Brad has requested.

Brad: Thanks for giving me the opportunity to clean out stuff.

Robbbert; I would also like to know what sort of pulse telephones you have? Are they bakelite (300 or 400 series) or plastic (8000 series)?

Andrew
