1970’s sofa with built in stereo – $20
1970’s sofa with built in stereo and speakers. dusty and needs recovering. $20. Include a number if you want a response.
Okay. First of all, this is definitely a contender for the Gallery of Regrettable Couches, which I need to get better about updating.
This whole concept is odd to me. Why would you put the stereo and speakers in the sofa? Unless you were too stoned to get off the couch to change the music, or unless you wanted the extra added vibration while you were having naked, hairy 70s sex to “Let’s Get it On” … oh wait, I think I just answered my own question, didn’t I?
And yeah, it’s just dusty. A little compressed air, a dry Swiffer cloth, and a penicillin shot will take care of that.
Thanks, DJSmudge!
Recovering? This couch needs to be put on a respirator and a defibrillator.
Let me grab my Level 3 Biohazard suit, I’m on it.
Don’t be mean. Recovery is a lifelong process.
Maybe if you were feeling industrious enough, you could recover the frame after stripping away all the shredded fabric and cushioning, and take apart the stereo for parts/scrap metal.
Or if you were feeling lazy, throw a sheet over it and forget about ever seeing it. Given that its current covering is dust and trash, a sheet to hide it would be an improvement.
I think I’ve seen this episode of Hoarders. Does it come with a free cat mummy?
I am shocked, SHOCKED! That someone snuck in to my house with a camera and is trying to sell my sofa. $20 indeed. That couch is an heirloom! Worth $35 easy. Once I dust it.
And, possibly, given what it’s collected, a hair-loom.
Since it’s a 1970’s sofa, there is also an eight-track. It’s in there. Somewhere.
No, Dave and FT….this is the premium model…you know, with the reel to reel.
Also included, at no extra charge, various communicable diseases!
Wait! Am I paying you $20 for the sofa…or are you paying ME $20 to haul away your trash?
Yes.
Huh!!??….So, basically it’s a wash?…(odd term for a sofa in that condition)
The bottom picture shows an elbow (?) above the stereo; presumably the crap on the couch is covering the rest of the body. Tits aside, I wouldn’t buy this without knowing the specs on the stereo and the speakers.
This one goes up to “dead hooker”
That’s an elbow? I thought it was a heel. And if Sparky just included the blinds with the sofa, he’d have a deal!
That there is what we call Texas dust.
Seriously, all this guy needed to do was add, “As seen in Animal House” to the copy and add a few zeroes to the price, and he’d be set for the rest of his life.
Which, given the condition of the locale, is about 15 days, give or take. Tetanus moves quickly.
That’s not a stereo, it’s a subliminal programmer. Messages include “It’s not garbage, it’s enhanced dust”, “I can sell anything if I put my mind to it” and “My immune system is functioning perfectly”.
No thanks. I will be moving to an undisclosed location. Please don’t try to find me.
#9…#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9…..#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9….#9…..#9….
I’d love a #9, thanks! Oooh, I wonder what my beer fortune will be!
jazzie, you broke the style sheet. Do you know what the punishment is for breaking the style sheet? Someone tell him what the punishment is for breaking the style sheet.
Being forced to sleep in unstylish sheets?
More beer?
Cat mummy?
Lion rug?
Bee truck!
Darn!!.. I was hoping for a week in a homemade one-man submarine. Oh well, I can live with your consequences.
Don’t mind Windy. She’s full of sheet sometimes.
If you move this couch, you will be destroying the natural habitat of the rare and endangered Pale Spotted Meth Addict.
Ah, TC, not as rare as we would like.
Perhaps not. But definitely endangered. Mostly from its own meth usage.
Given the nature of “space race” furniture back in the day, I’m surprised this is not a sleeper-sofa (with optional fold-out desk).
However, the thought that it is a sofa-bed, but is too rusted/gummed-up/infested to be opened horrifies beyond hunan comprehension.
I’ve have some hunan sauce in my refrigerator.
Edit: Mamma Windy might fix that for you so my comment makes me look like a sparky.
Tempting! You may proceed to bid bags of bird seed to either encourage me to edit or encourage me not to edit. Go.
I’m sending you a cup of my finest. Since I owed you one from way back. just so we start out even.
Better leave it there, OMV. Charlie may be needing it when the film goes into production.
“hunan sauce” is IF’s Aqua cover band. You’re welcome 🙂
Capn, I am going to let you out of the box now because you’re only hunan. Punchity Punch Punch!
Good Morning, Music Lovers!
hunan sauce is the name of my Cream cover band.
Oh, and since no one jumped on it…
Free Cat Mummy is the name of my Beastie Boys/ Tool mash up band.
