OMG!! I stopped at an estate sale this morning, it had not been advertised well, only a sign in the yard. I think it came up rather quickly as items were not marked. The poor guy was running it alone as his housemate was out of town. This is just a sampling of what I found. Gotta run, the semi will be here shortly with my first load!

LOL! Greg...that is just too funny! I am sure Robert is going to get you for that when he gets back from Florida. If you ever make it down this way, be sure to let me know. =) | ||

Can you imagine coming home to an empty laundry room? Does Minnesota have the death penalty, Robert? You should check. | ||

*LOL*
That is so funny! Thought I saw that room before! Reminds me of an old thread where a member wanted a machine another member had and joked he was going to make a "sweep" of the place (something about Glassbake (sp?) mugs). It was all light hearted and in the spirt of fun, but hilarous to read none the less. However!!!! Greg should you decide to go in, I've got dibs on the vintage Donwy FS. In fact let me know when you are planning for this to go down. I know some peeps from "da hood", and perhaps they can help! *LOL* L. | ||

estate sale this morning
Don, you're so thoughtful!! And what a find!! Must have been an elderly couple in their 90s when they finally passed away, both of them. Looks like she musta took in laundry too to help her husband earn income. I wonder if she was a feisty ol' hag or a sweet, nice ol' lady. Musta been a hag, looks like she never let anyone near her washers & dryers. They're too perfect. I hope the semi is large enouigh to haul all this trash away.

Don't worry...
I've arrived at Don's and we're getting ready to get another load out of there now - it's a bit tough, all those stairs...but we'll manage. I think Bob spoke up for the 58 set and the 47 Frigidaire has been claimed ;-) but all the rest of these have to go - the owner is a very nice guy but says they have to be out today! Check out the picture and let us know or they'll be out for the scrap pick-up tonight. The owner is keeping a newer GE Harmony set, he said it was the only one that did a decent job of washing/drying... (sorry, all the signs and advertising pieces have snapped up and are hanging in Don's living room - they look FAB!)

What wonderful Secret Santas you hansdome elves are
Could I have the 51 Unimatic if it's the overflow model which think it is. Tempted to buy Marks 51 Double rinser, I promised to let someone else have it. See how generousity comes full circle. Now I'll get my preferred choice--and FOR FREE. Thank You all so much. If I leave now I'll be in Minneapolis for the 11 o'clock news. Will that work?

Hey, you guys did a great job clearing out that messy basement--you even pulled up the floor tiles. I'll bet the owner loves the clean, smooth look of concrete. I understand it's hard to get parts for some of those old Frigidaires that don't work. What're you going to do with them? Chuck 'em? I think the price of scrap metal is on the rise again, so it might be worth your while. Isn't it amazing what you can find when you go to estate sales? I also like getting a little intimate peek into the life of a total stranger. For instance, the former owner must be a terrible slob--look at that piece of dust on the floor. And talk about disorganized--those detergents should have been in alphabetical order. I also see that he installed one of the machines is .27 degrees out of plumb. Loser. veg | ||

You guys are really reducing shipping cost drastically, What the outer cab in the hotpoint & low end whirlpools are about 20 pounds . You forgot about the frigidare one knob machine water temp on the dial, two water levels . A little simpler then the super -unimatic Who's got the super-unimatic? do you think he will adjust ?

Now, now, calm down Darrel. It's not as if we're not trying to replace the collection with some appliances of equal or lesser value. For example, I propose the following unit to replace all those ancient washers with clashing colors. Sure, this one is a bit of a project, but think of the hours of fun Robert will have tuning it up!

I Turn My Back For One Little Moment
Oh thank god those stupid machines are gone. To be honest all the work its been taking to keep them running smoothly (with the exception of the Unimatics of course, but that goes without saying) was getting a bit annoying, it will be so nice to get rid of them all. Bye Bye washers, don't let the door hit you in the ass. Even the modern machine bye bye, I'm just sick and tired of doing laundry anyway. So for now on I will be sending the wash out to be done, now that's what I call automatic! YAY. Don't forget the dishwashers too, delicious power bars and bananas don't make dirty dishes anyway! Now for those of you who have been following Vacuumland you've seen that I just become a member of the VCCC. Now I that I have more space I can concentrate on my new found love of vintage Vacuums! YAY Hoover and Electrolux. Oh and since I'm done with washers you know what that means for aw.org, starting on Thursday when I get home, the website will be closed!... Hmmmph.

Or Jetcone's gushing endlessly about his lovely Bendii! Or LightedControls endless machine give-aways! It's just maddening! Maddening, I tell you! I'm so tired of this site! Close the site please so that I can spend more time on other sites! Maybe I can get some work done! Uff Dah! ;) | ||

I repeat: Robert grew up in New Jersey; you can take the person out of New Jersey but you can't take the New Jersey out of the person; we don't get mad we get even! Robert is going to bide his time and then one day ... well don't say that I didn't warn you! Mike | ||

Well, I thought that it would be too good to be true
You know that I am kidding. Although, one of these days, i am going to actually meet someone, at least i hope so. If I have to charge the whole thing on my credit card and use some savings for the rest. I will just say that for now it is a fantasy. A pink unimatic, a fantasy, you never know. There is always next year, i still have not used my plane ticket.

I hope this is not all true. But it is true, AW.org is closing, no more vintage washers and no more website, besides after six and a half years of running this thing I'm just too old and tired to go on anymore. I'm down at my Dad's in Stuart, Florida using a direct drive Whirlpool as we speak, nice washer I'm quite impressed with it, I can see I'll get used to these real fast. Eveyone needs to think about what they are going to say on their last post before aw closes Thursday night. YAY Now I can finally concentrate on my Wall o' Dirt-Devils and my Hall o' Sanitaires! | ||

Yes, Robert has a wonderful sense of humor and remember, this was all a joke! Don and I didn't actually clean out Robert's basement, those floor tiles, paint, signs and even the machines are safe and sound - right where they belong. That being said, we always have a fall-back position, the wonderful Yahoo! groups where it all began! You may want to bookmark it just in case the wine-cork collection overtakes him ;-) CLICK HERE TO GO TO gansky1's LINK | ||

I'snt it obvious? The clue has been there all along. Remember the picture of Robert's office? The bottle? Time to spill the beans. Robert has secretly been a long standing member of the ABCC. (Avon Bottle Collectors Club...and in fact a Board member) His collection can now come out of the closet! I can't wait to see it! | ||

Been fun, have stayed away due to nonsense, but most of all, thanks for the fun. Have met new friends and enjoy others, but after all, this is the WWW which I think has exploded into bullshit anyway.

YAY, I'm home safe and sound. Now that I'm home and back in the nice crisp cool Minnesota weather I'm thinking clear again and I've decided not to close the site. All the heat and humidity of Florida was making me crazy and I was having nutty thoughts of closing the site. So carry on, oh and what ever you do keep me out of hot weather places please, otherwise lord only knows what might happen!

I hear ya man. I hate the heat. I can't imagine how people can live without winter. We had a good six inches today and I was so happy heaving the snow over my shoulders. I feel most alive in the winter time. You, too? So happy you're back. This thread has to be one of the longest made in the shortest of days, and so much fun. You must be proud of how well-behaved your brothers and sisters were in your absence. | ||

I think...
As a new guy on this site,and I think how you guys joke around,and..... I think as I seem to pick things out, (at 52 years old)and I think...Robert is a really well educated young man (and attractive too) , and I think he(Robert) took this as a very well Joke. Everyone on this page Loves him, and I don't think anyone would ever , EVER,ever would so anything in their powers to hurt him. I wouldn't. It's all play.I hope my 52 year old brain is not playing tricks on me ,,,, but there again I've been in the restaurant business for 35 years. !!!!!!!! If anyone knows this business takes it toll on you. By the way... Blue Cast Iron Spray Arms... They're the best !!!!
