I'm still thinking hose dryer, but there's something about "bong".

First off...boat anchors made of plastic bits tend to not anchor so much as float and or drift, and occasionally snag you in your tender bits as they pass by in the current. (don't ask how I know)
Second....bong...I love the word...it amuses me. BONG! BONG! BONG! One letter away from BOING, which is also an amusing one.
Third, my guess is that said buyer wasn't someone on this forum, and you could make a mint being a go-between as a "location service" for people in your area who are looking to plonk (another amusing word) down their hard earned bucks on bricks. Just a thought.
Carry on.

I think it was P. T. Barnum who said there's one born every minute, but I suspect the rate has gone up.

This model doesn't even have C-Flex. Goes back to about 2003 or earlier. The old 3-button model.
Takes a lot of balls to take advantage of some poor soul who may be desperate or hasn't done their homework.

You may not be too far off with that prediction. All you have to do is search on that model number in this forum to see how many found us here.

I can imagine the list of WTF questions you've amassed...but maybe I will let Google do the talking. *snork*
