old school phone

Posted by Lisa Fern on June 23, 2014, 1:48 pm

My retro handset has bit the dust, and needs to be replaced, the sooner the better.

Does anyone have another lying around I might buy (or borrow till I get one) ?

or

Does anyone know where I might buy one?

or

Is there anyone coming from the state/Canada that might bring me one?


Thanks!

Lisa

You can buy one online with Telmex. Not sure how they deliver- perhaps by 'paqueteria'.

I am retiring my old school phone ( because the arthrtis in my hands makes it tired to crank the handle to generate power in the line before you can call. I got a newer phone that all you have to do is click down the Hand set holder three times to cue the operator and then they come on to connect the call, which is much easier and faster. So you can have my old one if you want it , If you ring me just be patent because some one else may be on the party line,
