[blindkid] used Perkins Braillers

[Lenora J. Marten]

Sometimes sellers simply don't know how to tell if it's working or not.

You should be able to get it repaired for free. Call the school and ask
where they send them for repairs and how long it takes to get them 
back. Here in FL, they say 6-8 weeks for repairs, but when we send 
them in through FSDB, they come back in just a couple of weeks.

Lenora--thanks!  I'll give that a  try. I've checked ebay, and there is one
here...it's up to $152 I think, but it's sold "as is," and the seller
oesn't know if it works....

 Hi Lynda,

 If I'm remembering correctly, you're in AZ? You may try contacting your
 local Lion's Club to see if they are willing to donate one. The Lion's Club
 in
 Gilbert donated a Perkins Brailler to Eric when he was in 1st grade.

 Also, one of our moms found one on eBay a few months ago. Although I don't
 remember exactly what she paid, it was a pretty reasonable price.

 Hi all,
 I'm sure this has been asked before, so please forgive yet another query,
 ut is there anywhere that sells used Perkins Braillers at a reasonable (ok,
 emi-reasonable at least) price?  The summer looms and our Perkins loaner
 nd BrailleNote got returned to school yesterday.
 thanks,
 ynda Zwinger
