A comment about times on the internet and computer. I am no expert on this subject--but my computer "time stamps' in Central time--and of course I compare all times with what my computer time stamps a reply or reception.
The fact I am in Eastern time zone or Pacific time zone makes no difference, since each computer has a "base" time.
Thus my "3.33" might be someone else's 1:33 or 4:33 depending on what their computer's time base is. _________________ Bob Austin

In your C-Brat profile, you can select your time zone. This will then display all times on the site in the selected time zone. E.g. if I post something at 4PM pacific and my C-brat profile is set for central time, it will show as 6PM for me and 4PM for those in the Seattle area. The server keeps track of the time of a post in universal time and translates the time for each user based on their own profile preferences. _________________ Roger on Meant to be |

Since I started this thread because I couldn't find much information on selling a Wallas 95, I figured it would be nice to come back and follow up, which may help the next searcher. Although I wasn't 100% sure I even wanted to sell it when I first posted (although I was definitely thinking about it), a number of people PM'ed me to say they were interested in buying it. I decided to sell it now, because it's been checked over by Scan and is ready to go, and the idea of stuffing it on a shelf and then having it get "stale" again just wasn't appealing - especially when another C-Brat could be making use of it in the meantime. Another factor is that I'm "out and about" so don't have easy access to my boat shed to store it, and I didn't want it to get damaged from just being toted around.
I want to give some indication of the current value, although I don't want to be indiscreet vis-a-vis the buyer. However I can say that Scan's estimate of the value was in the ballpark.
Thank you to everyone who responded with their thoughts and information. It was much appreciated. This place rocks
