What This Blog Is All About

Nothing special here.  I'm doing what hundreds in Rexburg alone have done before me:  I'm selling my nonsense online to anybody interested.  Below you'll see some pictures with descriptions detailing what I'm selling, as you can expect.  Each of my items will have negotiable prices and include an "OBO" next to the price.  As you know, "OBO" means "Or Best Offer."  I'd like to emphasize the word "BEST."  Being the only offer or the highest offer doesn't necessarily qualify it as the "Best Offer."  It has to be something we both agree on.  If we both agree, we have found the "Best Offer" for the sale.  In addition, please understand that none of these items are "Must Sell Now" items.  If you want them, and your offer is reasonable, I will accept it.  If not, I don't mind hanging on to my nonsense longer.



I"m sure you're dying to know where to get a hold of me so you can buy some of my nonsense.  I can be reached at (208) SEVEN FIVE SEVEN-3478 (I think I'm supposed to give my phone number online in this format, but I'm not sure exactly why).  My email address is (and it does differ from the one I used when setting up this blog) theycallmechad (at) gmail.com.


Though I monitor all comments posted, I welcome and accept any and all comments pertaining to the items I'm selling here.  I'll be fair to allow all appropriate comments, including critical comments, to be posted, provided they don't contain any objectionable material (including profanity, nudity, etc.).  If you have questions for me about any of these things, ask.  If you dislike anything I'm doing here or the price I've posted  these things at, let me know.



All items are available by local pickup only.  I will not mail, I will (probably) not deliver.




Hope to talk with you soon!

Factory Unlocked Google/LG Nexus 5, Black, 16Gb, Near Perfect Condition - $300.00

Oh man, I sure love this phone.  I would not be selling it, but my current employer decided to get me a laptop to carry around in my pocket.  When compared next to my Nexus 5, it looks like the difference in size between a tadpole and a bowling ball.  It's huge!  (See picture below, with the Nexus 5 being on the right).  Needless to say, my pockets still aren't speaking to me for deciding to sell my Nexus.  My wallet, on the other hand, having to no longer pay for phone service, has never been happier.

So let's get down to the nitty-gritty.  This phone is in near perfect condition.  I kept it in a case, with the screen protected at all times, and babied it every moment I had it.  It was truly my loyal companion.  Running on a pure android environment at version 4.4, this is as Android as you can get.  I know the iOS people will balk at that sentence, but I have no qualms in saying that this is the single best phone available on the market today (and probably tomorrow and the day after tomorrow even, for that matter).  Check out the specifications as posted on Google's Nexus 5 webpage below (also available HERE):

I would highly recommend this phone.  Not because I have $300.00 to gain from it, but because it is the only phone I am personally recommending to my family and friends.  If those of my family and friends who were looking for a phone didn't already have the Nexus 5, I would be selling this to them.  Consider this your lucky day.  Congratulations!
