organ offered by a friend!

Post by ugly casanova » Wed May 28, 2008 2:59 pm

my best mate's ex girlfriend offered me a totally vintage looking electric organ I've seen once on a party long time ago.
she said her parents want to get rid of it and she said she wants to hand it out to me for 60€ !!
that's such a steal! she even said that it works! it would fit into my new flat as soon as i moved out here...!

problem: i don't have the money :ph34r:

any ideas what to do now?

Sell a pedal? Wait until next month? Prostitution?

it's small. not mobile but small. dont remember if it has one or two keyboards.
sadly no pictures. i'd be happy if i even know the brand. but she would make much more profit if she sells it on ebay anyway ;)

edit: no pedals to sell, just some strap >_>
i'd love to sell my german CLAIM by SONOR strat copy but i'm not allowed to do that by my parents :P
i sold my calculator some days ago but they found out about that and want to have the money now (cuz they bought it) :'(

See if her parents need any work done around their house. Or get a goddamn job like the rest of us!  :D jking, of course.
Seriously though, if the parents want rid of it, maybe they're more motivated to help out a kid whose heart is in the right place. Couldn't hurt.

I would ask her to keep it until you've got the money.
They had it standing around for a long time, another month won't hurt ;)

Oh my, thinking gets so fluent after wine ::) ;D

My singer/bassist , the other day found an old farfisa in the trash just out of his house..it's partially non operating, but it will be our restoring project for the summer! :-*
p.s.
Adding two vintage organs bought for 15€ now he has a total of three organs in his house.. :ph34r:

That's actually not a bad suggestion. Many organs and pianos in private ads have that deal...free for anyone who's willing to collect it. Of course, the smaller ones usually don't come with such conditions.
