    Old VTVM

    I see the occasional Simpson 260 on Kijiji I picked up one that needed some love for $35. It works well once I repaired it. There are people looking for old test equipment. I sold this scope for $160 plus postage to Vancouver Island. I sold this one for $100 plus postage to Quebec.

    Our Motorcycles - Post What You Got

    I found this 1991 Harley Soft-tail that has been parked for years. It was involved in a wild life collision and was repaired but never put back on the road. It has 5600 miles on it. The owner says I can have it for $5000. It needs some work but nothing major.

    Someone once told me the happiest time in any man's life is the year following his first divorce. I know it sure was true for me.
