Mother Nature Can Be Cruel!
#1

Hey guys,

Remember that Philco 38-7 I was asking about a couple weeks ago? Well the roof of the thrift store where it was located collapsed after torrential rains we had here July 2. They lost about 75% of the merchandise because it went thru the 2nd. and 1st. floors into the basement. Nobody was in the building at the time, so thank God for that! Now it's all a big soggy pile of mess. They're closed for two weeks now, so I don't know for sure if the radio was included among the casualties, but I feel very bad about it, especially if the radio bit it with the rest of the stuff.

Now I wonder. I should've either payed the price the guy was asking, or he should've accepted my offer. Either way I'd feel better about it. Icon_sad Icon_eek Icon_cry
