[blparent] braille compas and buying and selling braille and other equipment

[dawn stumpner]

I remember that the Matilda Ziegler Magazine used to have a 
section where people could put announcements in for items they 
were looking for or selling.  That magazine no longer exists, but 
are there any other sites or publications where you can advertize 
that you're looking for a braille compass? Sometimes people like 
to give away or sell things they don't really use any more as 
they age or their interests change.  I know I would really love 
to have one of those old wooden Scrabble boards with the "waffle" 
type letter slots and braille tiles.  I like the old set much 
better than the new ones they sell with the plastic boards 
because the tiles stayed in better and the braille on the tiles 
felt clearer and nicer on my fingers than in the new sets, and 
from time to time, I would like to get rid of or buy things that 
may be used and for a better price.  Good luck with the braille 
compass! I'll let you know if I hear of one somewhere.
