Sale pending payment.

Reduced price.

I took a couple more pictures to show the Gen holder with the gen in it. I notice I did not clean up the stove from 12+ years of sitting on the garage shelf with other Coleman items. If you were to try and find the generator holder and gen for this unit (if missing) I don't think you could find an o...

It does not have a container, sorry. BTW Jane and I were off camping the last four days.

I have had this 12-15 years, lite it a few times and the on the display shelf, This includes the spare generator, often missing from the used stove, this one has it. No dent, no dings, holds pressure etc. Not sure of Coleman made these also, this is the Rogers, Akron OH. This $79.00 plus shipping or...

Hummm in that pic in the first post... looks like he has man boobs. The off brands and the faked brand name stuff has been mostly crappy when I bought it, but not everything I admit. Funny when you think a brand like Bernzomatic, made in China, may for may or may not be a copy/fake made in China, lol.

Well this is a bit odd, I can't remember when I sent you a message Moses but it was a long time ago I think, and you are not correctly recounting the message, but maybe a version you prefer. Mostly if we allow a little political, it is like opening a flood gate, it rushes in. Normally we don't discu...

It is a good lesson for me/us. and it has happened a couple of times to me here on the forum. Next time I will stress the Post first. I don't think any member meant to cause a problem either, sometimes we just get casual about things. Maybe saying first post secures first position. All that said, th...

Thank you people this has been sold, confirmed by the first PM member I had received.

Thank you Ken, I need to put a hold on it from another offer that PMed but did not post. I just wrote them to get confirmation, otherwise will be happy to sell it to you.

One other thing about the bots (may I also use the term web crawlers?) is that the "things" that roam the internet DO pick up and "harvest" information, so that is why I strongly encourage members to delete personal contact info. when they publicly post it in a thread. These "things" can recognize ...

The title says it all, this is a pretty premium green 200A-700, includes the original box, has seen very little use, dated 9-83, a much sought after lantern for collectors. The buy it now price is 180.00 shipped to a location in the USA. Or you can make an offer. Lots of pictures for you to get a go...

The bots serve to allow internet users to find the site when they look up something GPA, Coleman, Stove, gas stove instructions, Cooler, etc. Example a search titled "Coleman Stove." The few times we managed to mostly kill the bots off, we found we were not searchable.

Here are some answers: The forum has evolved from it's original BBS. There was a time when it was not moderated hardly at all, politics and blowhards caused that to change. Civility has been made a priority since then, Politics and Flamebaiting had to go. The Forum is "owned" by the owner of Old Col...

Hope you get it squared away soon. A couple of years ago a USPS package tracking said delivered, it was a new 2.5" SSD drive, I was pretty bummed, filed a claim Amazon, three days later a couple from across town showed up and asked me if the package was supposed to come to me. Dang, thank you very m...

Casper, send me your mailing address info. Sold to Casper.

Casper, I will let you know in the morning as soon as I can firm an interested party is not completing an offer.

Here we had a couple of hours plus of fireworks, but.... it was not that heavy. Close to us neighbors had whopper mortar fireworks, candidly really impressive, if not unwise in our living area. No fires near us. It is a mixed blessing living next to BLM land, open space right near where you live, bu...

They have a big fireworks show here downtown in the Reno area at one of the casinos, we have gone a couple of times and enjoyed it. Where we live is backed up to BLM land, Sage brush, these plants are energy storage units, horrific fire feeders. And well yes, the last two days people have been light...

Here is a 500 Speedmaster in very good condition, has the early scalloped grill (in very good condition, no warping), marked 1 - B, not sure but think that is second half of 1941. It has never been cleaned up for presentation, but I have used it a number of times, actually with the same fuel it had ...

+1 on the hairspray, even spray clear lacquer, just sprites it on from a bit of a distance so not to break the mantle. My school teacher wife has this "art fixative" she would spray on the kids art projects, heck it works too!

Oh my gosh! Awesome. Just love well crafted work.

There is another side to this, it costs the USA many hundreds of billions of dollars in lost trade every year over their reluctance to move to the metric system. To wit all science matters made the move long ago. Question: How many countries in the world have not officially switched to the SI (Inter...

Oh gees I like that!

Working on a tow bar set up for the RV, Jane calls, her and Sally are at a garage sale. She says look at your email, two Coleman 200A lanterns in very nice condition, one with it box. She tells me she offered less already, I say ok, buy them. She comes home with them and says she got 20% off after a...

More for heat dissipation across a larger area, reduced flashing/pulsation etc. My thoughts on it anyway, lol. I have not read that just suspect that is why.

Here are just a few of the other things that were in the bugout backpacks:

I agree with what you are thinking, you will likely be fine with the service at 15Mbs.

Some experience here, last year I moved to T-Mobile's offer of wireless internet, a reasonable price, for 60Mbs bandwidth, no data limits. They were my cell phone provider already and I rather like the company's corporate culture as well. They supplied a modem with wifi router in one. First observat...

We had a community area garage sale where we live. We sold a bunch of stuff/junk, but I visited a few near us too. I bought two bug-out back packs for 12 bucks, just because the brand and packs were pretty nice. This was in one of the backpacks. Btw I sold off everything that were in the backpacks i...

Thanks Ed, was curious if your bill included heating. Hi Larry, your question started me thinking, we moved to Reno from Fairbanks, Alaska. We were delighted at the low utilities cost here in Reno, but over the last ten years the combined bill has about doubled. Installing solar will help inflation...

Ed, how do you heat your home? We use natural gas here, no sooner than we moved into the new to us home the furnace went out, dang. Since we need cooling and heat for the seasons I was going to opt for a heat pump but it cost 2.3 times the cost of changing out the furnace, since we use an evaporato...

Bruce, being near, next to the eastern side of the Sierra mountains we get a good bit of wind here too. My little personal Solar system using a 200W panel works pretty well to use as my uninterrupted power supply for the office. The whole project was just to experiment but turned out to work well. I...

Ian, the newer solar panels are guaranteed to have 80% or more capacity at 25 years, also these new ones, I think from Germany, are black and have higher density output, about half the footprint on the roof as I had anticipated.

Hey Shaun, old neighbor you! Pretty sure after it all gets done will pay it off, a one time pain, lol.

Ian, we call those Heat pumps here in the USA, as a mechanical contractor I was pretty familiar with them. Electric heat gives about 3.3 BTU per watt, the heat pump, depending on geo location gives a 3x efficiency over the electric. Sounds like it was a good choice for you. Here it is used for combo...

The topic has come up on the forum a number of times before but updates are in order. Using battery storage does not work out unless you are rural and off the grid. Every time I have looked at solar for the house and worked the numbers, well it didn't work out until recently. The pay back was way t...

Bruce has it!

I guess I would have stayed with better quality examples had I known, and bought when they were a lot cheaper. Also I sold over 3/4 of my collection before we made a house move, wish I had keep a few of the things I sold.

Amazon to UPS all seem to be quick again, thank goodness! Several things from Amazon have been updated to arrive a day early too.

So I have a couple of items that would bring the best money on ebay. Probably $500-$1,000 each. So I would get the 1099k from ebay, paypal, or whom ever. BUT. I'm on disability and don't have to file taxes because I'm low income. I can't remember what the $$$ amount is. But if I get the 1099k, and ...

so im right ? tax on top of the taxes , just unbelievable to read in BLUE N WHITE !!! i started taking stuff off ebay yesterday as i ponder all this ......most of my sales are 10 and 15 dollar items , doing all the math for every item is going to be a challenge for me . No, they do not tax taxes, t...

Most, many yes, I think that is correct.

Having had a business for 30 years it is just paperwork. A business will file a schedule C for IRS, it becomes a P&L, profit and loss where you get to the bottom line to see how much money you actually made, that will be a lot less than whatever the 1099 forms says. If you buy... and sell you includ...

Both, found out on my own and later heard it from other experienced collectors. Those old geezers knew a little too, wait, I am an old geezer now myself, dang.

Here I started collecting with center draft lamps, Aladdin, Rayo and others. One thing on the rayo is if it is set too low, it smells. The flame needs to be about 1/4 inch above that ring on the flame spreader. This will usually fix the problem you describe.

Having been an HVAC mechanical contractor in Alaska for 30 years you pick up a lot of knowledge about the products, heaters are not built all that well anymore, they have a 15 year service life by design, many will last longer of course. Before I left Alaska and the that business one company, H Quak...

It took so long to develop, and to get launched, not to mention a ton of money! And it should be worth all of that with exciting new revelations about the universe. Kind of like the Hubble telescope, 10 to the third power. (I couldn't easily figure out how to get the ASCII code for ten to the third ...
