Jambox bluetooth Speaker System donated by MarkDew
I only ship to the U.S. and canada.
Includes Jambox speaker USB power cable and charger.
Biggest Sound, Smallest Package.
Hello folks, I own 4 of these Jambox speakers systems.
I must say I am empressed with the quality of this speaker system.
It is in excellent physical condition and works perfectly.
JAMBOX delivers stunning hi-fi audio in a portable wireless speaker so compact you
won't believe it when you hear it. Unlike other portable speakers, JAMBOX is powered
by a pair of proprietary, highly sophisticated acoustic drivers, unmatched in their
ability to produce extreme high (tweeter) and low (woofer) frequencies from a single,
ultra-small dome speaker. They work in concert with an innovative moving-wall passive
bass radiator and airtight enclosure to deliver shimmering highs and thumping lows
that you can literally feel - the richest sound all in the palm of your hand.
It Only Gets Better With Time
JAMBOX is the only speaker in the world that gets smarter every time you plug it
in.
Just sync it with MyTALK,
Jawbone's industry-first online platform to download apps, software upgrades, and
the latest features - including
LiveAudio™
, an immersive three-dimensional listening experience. Jambox's integrated intelligence
allows you to personalize it to your specific preferences. No other speaker on the
planet is intelligent and updateable - but then again, nothing else is quite like
JAMBOX.
JAMBOX gives you the freedom to bring pristine wireless audio to whatever you are
doing, wherever you want. Carry it from room to room or just throw it in your bag
- it's always ready to go. No more cords, docks or hassles. With JAMBOX, you can
also enjoy streaming music, podcasts and sporting events while using your phone to
do other things like email, post to Facebook or browse the web.
Amp up Your Music, Movies, Games
Don't let tiny computer speakers sap your sound. All your media deserves great audio,
no matter what device it's played from. With JAMBOX, you'll feel the thump of every
kick drum, the vroom of every car chase and crowd with every buzzer-beater - bringing
all your mobile media vibrantly to life. And with about ten hours of continuous play,
you can blast away all day long with plenty of charge to spare for whatever comes
next.
With a powerful, built-in microphone, JAMBOX frees you to share crisp, clean-sounding
conference calls anywhere - in the office, car, at home, alone or with a group. No
more garbled, hard-to-hear chatter through your mobile phone or computer, no more
being tied down by phone lines. Just crisp, clean wireless conference calls from
your phone or computer. It's also perfect for sharing video chats via iChat®, Skype®,
Google Hangouts™ and more.
JAMBOX looks and feels as striking
as it sounds. Whether placed on a desk, coffee table, or shelf, JAMBOX not only declutters
jumbles of wires and clumsy computer speakers, but adds a distinct touch of style.
With its stainless steel construction and industrial-weight molded rubber casing,
this is not just a pretty package - JAMBOX is a sturdy, portable, and meticulously
crafted machine that's built to blast. Yet another example of Jawbone's obsession
with delivering breakthrough audio innovations, exceptional functionality, and beautifully
designed products for today's mobile lifestyle.
Retail cost: $179.

Little House on the Prairie, The Complete Television Series, donated by Mark Dew.

Little House on the Prairie 55 dvds.
Nine seasons, includes, the Pilot and 205 episodes.
Formatted for USA and Canada players.
Played once, In original binder.

the 1870s. Michael Landon stars as a simple farmhouse patriarch who heads a household
consisting of his wife, four daughters, and, eventually, a slew of adopted children.
these 200-plus episodes are three feature-length TV movie events and the revamped
ninth season--dubbed LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE: A NEW BEGINNING and considered
by some to be a spin-off series--in which the focus shifted to middle daughter Laura
(Melissa Gilbert) and her husband Almanzo in the wake of Landon's departure.

Shure PG58 professional Microphone.
For vocals and studio activity.
The tailored frequency response of this Dynamic vocal microphone is very smooth,
clear and extended. The Cardioid polar pattern of this Shure professional microphone
reject sounds behind the microphone and accepts only the ones that come from the
front and a few from its sides, thus providing convenience while in use . The rugged
coil dynamic cartridge of the Shure PG58 microphone includes a neodymium magnet which
handles high output level. The on/off switch on this Dynamic vocal microphone offers
easy control while giving performance onstage. This Shure professional microphone¯s
integrated pop filter eliminates the volatile breath sounds and wind noise, while
the internal shock discounts the noise while handling.
Please note, The mixer works best with computers that have a line-in conection on the sound card.
I will include all necissary adaptors and cables.
Value, $249.

From Cheri’s Desert Harvest
www.cherisdesertharvest.com
Cheri Romanoski is a native Tucsonan who grew up appreciating the desert and its natural resources. Born to hard working parents, preserving what grew in our surroundings became a hobby and great family pastime. As an elementary teacher in Tucson, Cheri taught children about the flora and fauna of the Sonoran Desert and how Native Americans survived on its bounty. She later utilized this knowledge to preserve many fruits grown on her property to provide her husband and three children with all-natural, healthy preserves. The excess production was given to neighbors. Soon, the neighbors began sending over unusual fruit grown on their own property for her to preserve for them. Payment for this favor came in the way of special homemade goodies made in their own kitchens. As a result, Cheri learned how to make many different varieties of preserves, some of which she continues to make for her own business today. Since 1985, her home spun hobby blossomed into a national and international business.
Cheri continues to take extra care with each product by hand harvesting, processing and preparing all of her products in small quantities to ensure product quality and integrity. She still uses no artificial flavoring, coloring or preservatives, just nature’s finest fruits and vegetables.
