Silver Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 343 Registered: Sep-06 | I hear folks talkin all the time about sh!t they find in pawn shops when it relates to car audio gear. Anyways, I was out the other day pickin up materials and I happened upon a pawn shop and I'm like " what the hell, lets see what's what ". MAN, the TOOLS!!!!! Yeah, most of the stuff was pretty beat up and I dug thru alot of sh!t and then I came across a Bosch Jigsaw like this one: Top Handle VS Orbital Jig Saw 1587AVSK http://images1.hdpi.com/product/bosch-jigsaw-1587AVSK.jpg The pawn shop dude said $ 45.00, told him I give $ 30.00 - SOLD Yeah, the thing saw some use and the only problem with it was cord ( tested it before buying ). But, sh!t, for 30 bucks, I couldn't pass it up, brought it home, fix the cord, works like a champ. I have this Bosch Jigsaw: Bosch model 1584VS Orbital Jig Saw http://www.mindspring.com/~cquade/pics/Jigsaw1a.jpg t's been going strong for 12 years, but, it's starting to show it's age operational wise, so, I'm going to send this in to get her all fixed up and re-conditioned ( new Parts ) and for what I paid for it brand new, it's still the BEST d@mn jigsaw anyone can own. |

Silver Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 345 Registered: Sep-06 | Zpeedy, $ 155.00 plus shipping. 3/4" MDF Carpet - Charcoal Grey or Black Terminal Cup w/ Spring Posts - Gold Plated Based on the size of the enclosure required and not accounting for such thing like bracing and such, the enclosure can be shipped to residential address since it's weight does not exceed the shippers restrictions. If I had more info - max size to fit design to install area, amps - wattage and such, I can be more exact and if i had a zip code, i can give ya shipping cost as well. |

Some of them a crappy hole-in-the-wall places, but from time to time you will run across a well-kept one. I work at a pawn/audio shop here in Monroe, La. Most people are surprised when they walk in. We try to keep the place clean and keep nice items...if an item comes in that we would not personally use, we dont loan/buy it. |
