    RARE Bell Western Electric PINK Rotary Desk Telephone CD500, Free Shipping!
    What, you ask, could be more fun than spending your days twirling your finger around the wound cord of a vintage telephone, just talking away the night with your bestie? How about doing it on a rare, vintage, PINK telephone? How does that strike you?
    This phone is old, and shows it. There is some discoloration, and the cord that connects the base and receiver has faded. This phone is
    UNTESTED
    , as we do not have a land line. However, we did take it apart during cleaning, and all seems to be in order.
    I see phones like this on ebay, and I feel like most sellers are overlooking a very important feature: you can really hang up on someone with a phone like this. I mean, you can hang up with AUTHORITY. They'll hear you hanging up on them. This is about a million times more satisfying than just pushing a button on a screen. This can convey emotion.
    What else can I say? A pink, rotary phone pretty much speaks for itself. This is the sort of phone PeeWee Herman might have, or maybe Elvis. You're either the kind of person who needs a vintage pink land line phone, or you aren't; only you can be the judge of this.
    Shipping will be either via Federal Express or USPS Priority Mail, whichever is more cost effective.
    Thanks for looking!
