Thank goodness for cpap auction!

I just won a desperately needed new Comfort Curve mask for $35.00 plus shipping. I am thrilled because mine is sooo worn out and has been needing replacement for some time now. Funds have been low so my mask has been put on hold and I've been making do with my leaky squeeky stretched out worn out for much too long. Yay for cpap auction!

Congrats on your purchase. I second your praise of cpapauction. I don't know what I would be doing without it as it has been an effort to find masks that I can use through the night. I think if stuck with my first choices, I'd not have been as compliant the last couple of months (~3 months using a mask from sleep to waking)

I'm a total evangelist for cpapauction.com as well, especially for the new and frustrated. I like it when the banner ad appears when I log in, because I only heard about it myself after it was mentioned to me by one of the users here.


It's been a real lifesaver, especially since I don't have a DME (I'm self-pay) or brick and mortar option for trying out masks, and I've struggled to find ones that work with my jaw issues, facial size, etc. I only wish I had known about it sooner!

Self pay here too and my insurance company will not reimburse for any purchases that I have submitted.

I am from Australia and I bought a mask thru the site as well. Even though they said they only shipped to the States I emailed them and they said they would send it to me. They did and I got a great deal on a new mask. Much cheaper than if I had paid for it here.
