ETA: At the moment these are all spoken for/pending except maybe The Matrix.

One 4 oz. bottle of Goth Rosary hand/body lotion in "Wicked". This was a mis-sent item from a recent order. "Wonderfully tempting... the smell of supple black leather & fresh tobacco." It smells too heavy-floral to me. I know some of this is the "tobacco" (possibly tobacco flower) smell, as I have some soap which has the same note and it's ok there; I think the rest is that the "leather" is obviously some kind of simulating blend. I just really don't like the scent. She's sending me the replacement of what I did order, but she can't take returns for health code reasons, so here I have it. You like?

VHS copies of The Dark Crystal and The Matrix and a DVD copy of Blade Runner ("the director's cut", of course -- I don't know that I've ever seen anything else :P ). All in good to very good condition; all too common and/or out of fashion for me to have a prayer of selling them on half.com.

Import CD of Einstürzende Neubauten album Ende Neu; has some kind of "CD-Extra" features I've never really explored (© 1996, so whatever it is may have a bit of a trial running under WinXP+). Lightly scratched, but playable. Too obscure, apparently, for me to have a prayer of selling it on half.com.

I'm rather surprised that nobody has piped up on some of this, or maybe it's reflective of just how far behind the times I am.

But I DO have a VHS player, and I don't have Blade Runner on DVD (I'm cheap; I tend to pick stuff up from the "2 for" or "final markdown" bins, figuring almost everything makes it there eventually).

As for the soap....hmmm. Curious.

So, tell ya what; if nobody pipes up for the stuff, let me know how much it would cost to send it to Florida, and I'll send you payment via paypal. (I think the USPS Priority Mail flat rate box would be the best way, but not sure)

And if someone else wants it more....no hard feelings.

Well gee, it was only 7 hours since the post when you made this response, and most of that in the dead of night; I'm not surprised no one else had repliced yet.

This is actually divvying up nicely -- gothikfaerie seems to want the lotion and CD; heartssdesire The Dark Crystal, and you'd like Blade Runner. (Did you want The Matrix too?)

[silussa.livejournal.com]

Very well, indeed, since it turns out I don't have The Matrix either.

Yes.

As for the timing, yeah, you're right. *wry grin* But not being up at 2:30 am, I was thinking of it as LATE.

[starlightforest.livejournal.com]

$3 for media mail, or $4 for first class (since I will have to get a padded envelope for those), or $4.60 for priority. My Paypal address is lifitz(at)eristic.net and it's not a business account, so I can't do a credit card funded payment.

[silussa.livejournal.com]

Okay, I have a cash transfer started to my PayPal account (since I tend to expect trouble from echecks). As soon as that clears, will send the money.

[starlightforest.livejournal.com]

Er uh. It appears that despite there being like 30 other copies for sale, someone DID want to buy Blade Runner off me on half.com, as I just got the notice today. O.o Soo... sorry about that one. So mailing The Matrix by itself is only going to cost a couple bucks.

I always use instant transfers myself, e-checks annoy me.

[silussa.livejournal.com]

It happens; don't sweat it.

I don't tend to keep cash in the PayPal account, as it happens.

I'll check back in a couple of days and you can give me the revised shipping figure.

[starlightforest.livejournal.com]

I don't tend to keep cash in the PayPal account, as it happens.

Neither do I. I just always use bank account transfers.

I'll check back in a couple of days and you can give me the revised shipping figure.

Um, I already kinda did? *scratches head* It doesn't need to be exact or anything.

[silussa.livejournal.com]

Done.

Let me know if it's not enough.

[starlightforest.livejournal.com]

I'm guessing you want Media Mail? (since you didn't explicitly select something) In that case the envelope + the postage will probably be something like $2 together. But I replied to your payment email -- apparently you thought this was a DVD and not a cassette, so I want to be sure that you actually do want it.

[starlightforest.livejournal.com]

Err, make that something like $3 together (had $2 on the brain heh).

[gothikfaerie.livejournal.com]

well i'll tell ya - the Neubauten CD could get a happy home up in Ohio. And i'd check out the lotion, wtf, i can never have too much lotion.

So between us, it gets happy home, yis? Same thing, let me know S&H and i can paypal it to ya..

btw.. i never thought about adding street IDs. It doesn't say it on the street sign.. i don't even know for sure which it is. Ave.? Blvd? You know better than me, now..

[starlightforest.livejournal.com]

Ok, I'll get back to you with a mailing cost tonight.

[starlightforest.livejournal.com]

$3.65 counting the fact that I'll need to get a padded envelope to stick it in, or for $4.60 I can use one of their priority boxes and send it that way.

Franklin is a Boulevard. (Odd; all our street signs say what kind of street they are, albeit quite small and difficult to read if you just whoosh past.)

[heartssdesire.livejournal.com]

Well, I'd like the Dark Crystal unless anybody else is really passionate about taking it.

[starlightforest.livejournal.com]

Done. Is there an address I should use besides the actual street address? Like a PO box or anything? I know I've sent cards but I think you told me once "oh, use this one, not that one" but I forget which way round it was.

[heartssdesire.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the PO box is better, mail service to the house is rather poor. You know, middle of nowhere and all that.

Morpheus Anima
PO Box 692
Livermore CA 94551

thanks very much!

[starlightforest.livejournal.com]

OK. If you could throw $2-3 postage my way I'd appreciate it.

[heartssdesire.livejournal.com]

Yes, I was realizing last night that I should have offered. Do you have an address to mail to, or Paypal, or what would you prefer?

[starlightforest.livejournal.com]

I am nowhere, and everywhere...

Anyway, paypal is the easiest. lifitz(at)eristic.net.

[heartssdesire.livejournal.com]

done!
