Hi Hol,

I can't vouch that it's the same exact model, but that's about what it looks like. Amazing how it always gives people that smile!

If nobody buys it, then we'd let it go to where ever would have the most use for it (and maybe pay some delivery gas). Let me know what you think.

Hi Gideon,

This one? http://www.weber.edu/WSUImages/employeewellness/Bod_Pod.JPG

I don't know if you'd find anyone interested in buying this machine at sudo room, but if you need to get rid of it we would definitely put the components to creative re-use.  Sensory deprivation chamber in the sound room, anyone???  Looks pretty awesome.

Cheers,
Hol
