Can you explain the meaning of "mint condition" in relation to antiques or collectibles?

One stylus (needle) per box - sold at $14.95 - a three pack was $29.99 - I would NOT split! All the NOS were sold so quickly (I limited ONE per customer due to the fact I do get a lot of Commercial businesses that orders in bulk).

WARNING: Dangerous - You will accept all liabilities

MINT STATE: meaning pristine, still in original container, no flaws, no embellishments, no scratching. EXAMPLES: depending on the item, for example, coin - can be traced back to its origins (such as “found in original bank roll or bank bag”), a sign - in original cardboard or wooden frame box and sealed, NOS (new old stock) - original contents, original box, may or may not have original price or store price. (example: Radio/Television Tubes in original box, marked, etc - NOS)

State of Play Confirmed for 4th June, 40+ Minutes of PS5 Games - Push Square

To have one that’s NOS (New Old Stock) can be very rare or common! Just because it’s in NOS/MINT State does NOT mean it’s worth Zillions of Trillions of Dollars!

(IMAGE BELOW was taken from the web, I had several of these yellow ones - it was not the one I sold)

You’ve got an old Zenith Black and White television that had 2 tubes blown, I had quite a few NOS (New Old Stock). They were sold for $10, $15 or $20 over the price it was originated. For example: If a tube was $4.99 - then it was sold for $14.99 ($15.00).

What is a good comeback for when someone calls you flat?

Colors varied - Blues, Greens, Marbled, Yellows, Red, Browns.

One day, I was watching porn, a big ass lady with big boobs ,just after seeing her the image of my female cousin poped in my mind, (let's introduce her : she's 35 years old , very big ass , nice boobs ,not very big but nice,always wearing tight clothes , she's divorced ) and I thought of me fucking her ,I never had sexual desires for her but now I do days went by and when I met her I was so horny ,I couldn't stay with the family cz my penis was clearly erected , I realized this is my first time I get horny for one of my family ,it not illegal in my country.well to make a long story short( if u want details just text me I will tell u 😊),I decided to give her signs that I want to fuck her,finally I decided to have sex and with my cousin , I thought it is the best beggining for me, i started touching her when I came across her in a narrow place , make her feel my hard cock when we hug , I thought it will hard and I will be ashamed but no , I felt nothing and she said nothing , probably she thought it was by mistake,anyways, I decided then to talk with her about sex, waited for her to be alone in a room and talk with her, I confessed everything about me watching porn and addicted..etc,she said it's normal and u are growing up and u must have sex,well at that time I was like whaaat????? Well I didn't control myself and asked her for sex ( horny like I Ve never been before) she said that she will think Abt it ,2 weeka went by then she called me ,telling that she reserved a room in a hotel and we meet tonight ,we met,and bruuhh, sex is great , I mean, I had to find a pirstitue ,what I was waiting for to have such a feeling ????, I will never forget that night, I started kissing her she was kissing hard ,she misses sex so bad , she sucked my dick and swallowed my semen ,I felt I'm in a dream , then when fucked ,her ass was very big and the anus was open ,didn't struggle to get my hard cock inside it , she was obviously missing sex , she was shouting ,fuck me yh fuck me , I go fast after every word until I cum , we did that 3 times , then we went to her pussy , using condoms I fucked her so hard the moans were higher , everything was perfect ,in the end I asked her to lick her body , licked pussy ,ass, boobs,then she sucked my cock until we sleeped ,all I know that she was dirty ,well before even having sex with her I knew she is an open minded woman , and a woman that looks that she donesnt know anything , but she knows everything, but never expected having sex with her ,well she was horny and that helped...but no one of us regretted that sex ever.. We still have sex from time to time ,and I started having sex with sex workers , joining threesomes..etc If u want pics of her text me.

AWESOME! RADIO WORKS! DADDY’S HAPPY! GREAT HELPFUL SELLER!

“Mint” state is extremely difficult to find, but not so of those that are “graded” and have COA (Certificate of Authenticity), and they often come with a hefty price tag (but not always)!

My late Uncle owned a Radio and Television shop and plus a now defunct Warehouse Distributor also had old supplies. I literally cleaned them out! (Cleaned out - meaning emptying everything off the shelves)!

Do you believe that social media companies should allow posts spreading misinformation about election results, as suggested by Rep. Jim Jordan?

All original, never been opened, never been used - MINT

Catalin radio (1939 models and 1940 models) Emerson

I sold them all on eBay - priced accordingly (I was NOT greedy!)

Why would calling me an incel help anything? How does that solve anything? Why can’t you actually be helpful and offer productive honest advice?

Since my late Uncle had the “compatibility chart and catalogue” I was able to locate the radio and was also able to pull out the Circuit Board Blueprint. Yup, I had a match, and I also noticed that Bill (my late Uncle’s Co-Owner) had a note that if xxx was blown also the xxx is going. (Which put me right on the spot when I told him that it appeared that the other tube was bad). What I did was - I scanned the note, sent it to the buyer and recommended that he buy both tubes. He wanted it right away (his dad was in a nursing home and listened to the radio every day and was visibly upset because radio no longer worked). Because I was very low stock on the 2nd (the one that was going) - that one was $29.99, the other tube (common) was only $14.99, he paid $10.95 for overnight. I even scanned the “old instructions” of how to insert the tube as well and put it in the box.

I sold hand cranked Phonograph and old Diamond Record player needles (Stylus) and parts - depending on the make and model, the needles themselves were NOS, all opened and inspected (to make sure no rust) and it was shown clearly in photographs to all interested parties. I also sold DIAMOND (genuine) needles - NOS. The Year/Date were clearly marked on the box they came in, every single one of those expensive needles were well packed and pristine condition.

SOLD: $919 (lowest) to $19,444.01 (highest) - depending on color, some are more rarer than others - all with 99 cent NO RESERVE! All primarily sold for about $1,003 a piece (with the exceptions of the 2 Super Rare I had listed)

A Buyer who had an upset father because his Dad’s - dad’s old tube AM Radio died. The person contacted me, and had absolutely no idea what the tube was, he knew it was burned out. So I had the buyer to take photos (all the way around) and the socket (bottom) and top and provide me the name of Radio, and if all possible the mother board (aka circuit board). I also noticed another tube appeared to be “dying” and had him to pull that out and take photos. Heck, he just wanted all of them, and I told them it’s not necessary I can see the other 3 are good, one is questionable and the first one you contacted me is indeed burned out.
