From another thread and in response to my asking for clarification as to why he was selling.

Hello,

I have to jump onto this post because this is what I was considering. I'm a newbie to this website and forum so if I'm crossing some lines, pls kindly let me know.

Below is my story and in reply to Pugsy's PM to me yesterday - for some reasons, I cannot reply to her directly through PM?? If anyone can help me with that technical difficulty, pls enlighten me :) Also, can one of you pls pass this message to Pugsy, much appreciated!

I just retired (hence, the handle) at age 60; I have been using a Resmed S9 for the last 6 years after having been diagnosed with sleep apnea. I'm used to it now, no problems. However, because I try to travel when my wife is willing to go with me, I also needed a portable CPAP. Last year, I got a brand new Transcend mini-CPAP, which was told to me by the sales to be a good one. I tried it for a couple of trips but I could not seem to get a consistent sleep out of it. So, I decided to try the Resmed AirMini which is supposed to be as good as their stay-home type. Yes, so far, it seems to work much better for me than the Transcend. There is nothing wrong with the auto Transcend, and it is almost brand new. It just doesn't seem to be "compatible" with me, if it makes any sense. As you all know, there is no such thing as a try and return policy on CPAP, which means I'm stuck with a Transcend I don't use anymore.

That leads to my question, can I offer to sell this machine here on this forum? I know ebay/Amazon/Kijiji don't allow reselling CPAP. Craigslist is a long shot, I think...
Thx all!

Hello again,I see my post is now approved. Thanks.

The specs for my Transcend Auto Mini CPAP machine is:
Completely automatic pressure adjusting CPAP machine; comes with 6ft tubing, universal hose adapter, universal power supply, brand new compact travel case, instructional CDs, and Quick User Guide. It plugs directly into A/C outlet, no battery. All you need is your own mask to attach to the machine.
I bought this a year ago and used it only a couple of times for travel. I don't need this anymore but it is still in like-new working conditions.
Hope the pics below show up fine.

I'm asking $290 US plus shipping for the complete package. Pls PM me if interested. Thx!
