  • Almost-new rock tumbler-$2
most of the cans and bags of enclosed ingredients are all still sealed, although it does look like the tumbler was run once or twice, judging from the residue inside the drum. I've been looking for one of these for a couple of years now, this is the nicest one (by far) that I've come across. Originally priced at $20, Gail talked the woman selling it into taking $2. Thanks Gail!!!
