But seeing stuff for sale from somebody in the New England area in Texas is B... S...;also there are newsgroups for 'for sale' items. If you don't know how to edit the newsgroup line RTFM. Not to mention that the prices that I have seen, I could order it brand spanking new from several places(in town as well as mail order). Flames off. A pissed off reader of garbage in the wrong news groups.
