SO LONG MINIATURE SHOWS

So, we've decided to stop doing miniature shows due to health reasons.  I have displays I'd like
to sell.  Shipping will be the exact cost of UPS to your door.  If interested, e-mail me at:
sheila.jacobson@gmail.com


Smaller round display with 3 pedestals.  Base is approximately 9" diameter, about 1/4" thick clear
acrylic.  Tallest pedestal is about 4 1/2" tall.  The tops of the pedestals are 3" diameter.  Easy to
put together - flat head screwdriver and 2 screws to each pedestal.  Screws are counter sunk.
$35.00 + UPS shipping.    A






Larger round display with 9 pedestals.  Base is approximately 13" diameter clear acrylic.  The
pedestal tops are 3" diameter.  The tallest pedestal is about 11" tall.  Easy to put together, with
just 2 counter sunk screws to each pedestal.  $45.00 + UPS shipping.  B
SOLD





Two large rectangular displays, with cover that pulls up, off,  and away.  When we used these, we had
the cover off, and the open shelves facing us standing behind the table - to avoid shoplifting.  At the end of each night, we put the cover back on.  These stand about 15 1/4" tall X 13" wide X 4" deep at the deepest point.  5 shelves + top.  Clear acrylic.  $70.00 each + UPS shipping.  C & D
BOTH SOLD





Tall white acrylic steps.  Six shelves.  Approximately 13" tall X 8 1/4" wide X 11" deep.  This is
great for all those plastic boxes.  It holds a lot.  Each shelf is about 2" - 2 1/2" deep.  $50.00 + UPS
shipping.   E

IT'S MY MONEY. I WANT IT BACK!

So I go to a doctor on May 29, 2013.  I pay my $35.00 co-pay at the time of my visit.
June 19, 2013 I receive the Explanation of Benefits from my insurance company.  (In my
experience, the provider receives this information several days before I do.)  I am only allowed
4 doctor visits per year.  After that, the cost is applied to my deductible and I have to pay the full amount.  Since I had already reached my deductible ($1,000.00), my share was 20% of the visit.

So I wait for the doctor's office to return the difference to me.   And I wait.  I've been in this position before.  The doctor wants the money up front; but just try to get any back from them.
So I called the office today to see what the hold up was.  I was told it would take them 6 to 8
WEEKS to send me a check!

Interesting.  We are charged an arm and a leg for medical service.  (Our insurance charges 2 arms
and legs for coverage.  Which gets worse and more expensive by the year.)  Yet, the accounting
department can't process a small check in less than 1 1/2 months.  The longer they hang onto my
money, the more interest they make.  It's like Vegas, with the odds stacked in the house's favor.
