They were listed on eBay, nobody bought them. I spend, on average, between $20-$30 on packing materials per cleaner when I ship. At the starting bids of $20-$40, the cleaners were essentially being given away for the cost of shipping and materials. I'm not interested in spending my own money to...
It's a shame that nobody was interested in giving these a new home, I was sure that they'd sell for $20-$30 each. I guess these aren't as desirable as they once were. The neighborhood scrap man was happy to toss them into his truck within minutes of me hauling them out to the curb, so at least...

I do not know specifically where the auction was, but it was in St. Louis and my friend who purchased them on my behalf knew Stan as a fellow organist. The complete Roll-Easy is now sold and the rest of my machines have been reduced in price even further.
Getting down to the last few items...
A good friend of mine attended an auction containing items from his estate and bought three machines there. Unless you personally cleared out his home and storage facilities, keep your comments to yourself. In fact, keep your comments to yourself anyway, and don't comment on my posts ever again...
