Black Friday Scores?

[DrKnow65]

Black friday was all about a CC/Neu 1518 for me, but most of our christmas shopping has been done on-line already.

I've grown a fondness for buying at a discount, new or refurbished, tax and shipping free when I can, and I don't mind paying the paypal fees when it gives me a little more security on deals that seem to good or with a vendor I've not used before.

I'm buying christmas stuff for 4 kids so if I can pick up a refurb Xbox 360 with a 2 year warrantee for under $150 (gamestop) that means I can also pick up a refurb 24" LCD for under $175 to go with it :-)

Nothing wrong with used/refurb stuff. I am getting to really hate new stuff, just cause it looses its value so fast.

My current hobby is collecting guns, and I buy just about all of them used. I can easily sell them for what I paid, and often make considerable money. You can do this with all kinds of stuff, cars, jewelry, boats, loose women, etc. Make your hobby profitable!

With a speil like that I deserve to be on tv, I could sell ice to eskimoes, maybe even sell some buttons to the amish!

JAMES I see you more like that "Crazy Eddy" character in the Robocop movie trying to sell guns to all of the crazy people in the world, so they can get rid of the cops who might shut you down for illegal dealings. With things being so $hitty right now big businesses are creating deals that most people cannot refuse just like the CC motor sell out. We just read that immediately after Xmas that flat panel TVs are expected to sell for $150 (42") size. Things are begining to hit rock bottom. I remember when I first saw the Pioneer 42" flat panel plasma TV for sale. It was 1978 in Hugh Heffners playboy Xmas gift list and it sold for $20K. WOW isnt that freaky?

I to do not see anything wrong with buying refirb stuff as long as it is the original manufacturer who refirbs the item. Buying used or refirb has been around for a very long time and it is getting better and better as time goes by.
