Mint VIP for sale! Never carried. Lives in my glass display case. Aside from the classic speck on the switch (as on all the rest), it's in absolutely perfect condition. Includes Fraen/SO17 (which the VIP came with).

$179 shipped via USPS CONUS w/tracking (insurance is extra). PayPal (non-CC) or USPS money order only, please. Shipping overseas will be extra.

I hate to sell it, but I need the money and the VIP needs a deserving home.

Cheers!

Re: FS - Mint VIP!

Hi Cy!

For the past two years, I've been obsessively reading CPF. What an addiction CPF has become for me! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/happy14.gif My gf constantly complains that I spend way too much time reading CPF posts ... and way too much $$$ on flashlights. I don't think she'll ever understand.

Anyways, I decided to break out of my shyness, and figured that offering up my VIP would make a helluva first step! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink2.gif

Vik - if you need money, let haveblue hold it for $179. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif It won't be for a few months, alas, before I can also own one of those lovelies.

I think money order looks fine to him, judging by the "or money order" comment. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Sale Pending - Sending PM to Karlthev to confirm details! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Keep in mind PayPal is instant, whereas USPS MO is only as fast as snail mail...

Hi Karl - There's a PM waiting for you! How about you send me the MO directly, and then I send you the VIP directly? That will avoid unnecessary delays. Plus, I think HaveBlue might want to focus on other things for the holidays, especially because he might not want to bother with the MO if he never gets to play with the VIP /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I'm a patient guy Vik, comes with my advancing age I guess! The delays I can handle and, it sure will build the anticipation! We'll have to consider haveblue a "Santa" of sorts, he getting the "wishlist" and then, delivering the "present".

Re: FS - Mint VIP!

Vik ,

Several months ago some individuals took advantage of the trusting nature that has developed in the CPF community. Individuals with very few posts showed up with some custom lights to sell. The lights were bought by members here and were never recieved nor were the sellers heard from again. While it certainly is likely that everything is kosher in this situation, given the circumstances (no post history, no picture or varification of ownership etc) it would be very foolish for karlthev to simply send off a MO. Also, keep in mind that if he were to do something like this it certainly would make CPF look like fertile ground to anyone out there with trully malicious intents.

If Haveblue is too busy there are many proven trustworthy individuals at CPF who would gladly assist with your VIP sale.

Re: FS - Mint VIP!

Hi Karl - More PM for you! I understand the anticipation /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I don't want to presume too much ... but shouldn't we give HaveBlue a chance to provide his comments?

Cheers!
