2006-10-21T09:34:00.000-05:00

Hey Welcome to what we hope will be a first in a daily blog for the building/store that is 517521.

First Lets Welcome Adam in to the 517521 family!!! Adam is a Uniontown native and has already proved to be a great asset to the store with his knowledge of posting on Ebay.....and that brings us to the information about our Ebay auctions.....
Our seller name is '517521inbellevue' and we just ended our first week of quasi-successful Ebaying.

We just posted a Yamaha NS-500 Beryllium Tweeter so go check that out. We should be getting some more stuff up today.

We also recently received a bunch of Guitar Amps and Guitar Cases.

TODAY IN BELLEVUE.
Well apparently today is the Halloween Parade....I wish they would have let the town know so we could have let people know that there will be a bunch of little kids running around in halloween costumes. Activity on the streets of Bellevue is a great thing....i just wish they would let people know so they can plan better.....its kinda a surprise to come to Bellevue and find every meter on Lincoln Ave covered in a "No Parking" sign.
