HUBBA! HUBBA! says Bubba[]

Bubba Hodges, The Residents' personal assistant here. Something curious has been passed over to me so here it goes. Due to a flood last year, Cryptic President Homer Flynn allowed one of THEM to stay in his home while Homer was on vacation. Fortunately no damage was done but Homer has been plagued by an unpleasant feeling that the bed is now haunted. Yes, a HAUNTED BED - go figure. But Homer now says the bed has to go, and the rest of his defiled bedroom furniture (an armoire and a nightstand) must go with it. So here's the deal: Homer prefers to sell all three as a bundle at the once in a lifetime bargain price of $1200, but if there are no bundle buyers, he'll sell them separately but at higher individual prices than the set (Bed alone - $1200; Armoire - $800; Nightstand - $400). Send offers to: crypticorp2000@gmail.com. Final deadline is midnight Pacific Time Monday, Nov 27. The furniture will be available for pickup the weekend of Dec 2&3. (Homer will entertain offers less than the asking price but preference goes to the first bundle offer at full price. Pickup only in San Francisco - no shipping. All sales are final.)
