A mate of mine needed some black bamboo digging out and shifting About 15 plants of about 10-17 foot tall I had to talk them out carefully to resale them as they were worth money took time to do it properly and not damage the plants and then into hessian sacks to be sold must have been about 8 hours work over 3 days I also had to did some shrubs out at the route, but this was for money and as i finished the black bamboo in the morning, i got started on the roots - hard work in very very hot sun for five hours - well at the end of a very hard day, i got some cash and then off to the lock up for my black bamboo payment

so what was my payment ?

well how does a Sharp 777E sound 

Paul got me my first 777H with a deal/swap for some camera gear that i didn't need or use - so that was a cheap easy way to get the 777 then he knew i couldn't resist another 777 and was going to see if we could swap some items to get a deal there - then he mentioned that he needed some work done in the garden - lucky as i'm a gardener (age concern - help the elderly do there gardens) so he get the black bamboo taken out carefully - he can re-sell them - and i get another 777 for just a little hard work

so cheers Paul for doing another great deal

so I've now got my second Sharp 777 checked it out at home - couple of marks i can see, but nothing major - right side speakers are messing about but i thing a drop of contact cleaner will sort that out a treat - speaker grill great - all buttons work - both tape deck up to speed - in all it just need a good clean and a look in side

will get some more pic's up later with both but here is me after a long, very hot day after work, getting hold of another 777 

cheers B 

What a great story with a great ending, congrats BENDYCAT!

thats right bendycat, a 777 is always welcome.

what a great result....congrats mate

does your mate need any more work doing Bendy? if so i'm always available

great stuff you must be well chuffed

Well, respect to Bendy, it was a VERY hot day, and I couldn't have dug the plants out myself (without spending a week recovering).

It was an all round good deal as far as I was concerned.

Now, if only we can work out a deal on that Bombeat 12 that I have......

Paul

Post of the month. 

Superb story

Great pic for the 'Show your face' thread too.

happy days good result mate

cheers all and cheers again Paul - how much do i ache today - LOADS  - very hot day - 10 steal pole - digging up roots that feel concreted in = pain and a feeling of being made of lead

but it's great to see a stack of 777 in front of me in the lounge

Paul we will see about the bombeat 12 and what pain my body can take for it

Bendy, how long did you have to hold that monster out in front of you like that?

That will make your arms ache more than the gardening.

I had been swinging a steel pole around all day that weight around 12lbs - so my arms were dead by then - it was a long couple of seconds to hold it there

but it does look like i could just hold it up at any time  but any one who has held one knows it's a killer !

nice one bendycat well worth the effort!

Fantastic story!

Cheers BC,,,hard work DOES pay off!

I think I can not do as he
Only two boxes do this it is enough to break my arm

Awesome.

 I love the look of those Sanyos. Nice big drivers and those badass looking horns. From what I understand they're a bit underpowered, but man do they look impressive.

great pic bendybus/bike/cat lol-your gardening payed off well there-i missed out on another 777 2 months ago when a guy who used to save me boxes took one to a carboot-forgetting he was saving it for me-told me i was ten mins too late and he sold it for-wait for it-ten pounds!!!!fully operational and in mint condition.i was well shall we say slightly pi##ed off at him and we havent spoke since-saw his son at the carboot this week and he said he hasnt had any more like it through-too bloody right he hasnt-that was a one off!!!!reminds me of the time i saw a mint vz2k at the tip and was told to furk off

but ash you deserve this one brother and i hope she provides you with many years of happy blasting

This box was bought for £20  didn't mind doing the hard work as i knew that a doing the work would get me it in the end - and as i would rather do hard work instead of paying over £500 for it

they look great stacked
