If anyone is interested in a used sauna; there is a sauna group
callled "Sauan Detox" ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sauna_detox/ )
in which the owner has 2 databases set up and accessible to all members at
the Group Database. He and other people put in it sauna related items they are
trying to sell plus ones they are looking for. As of a few days ago, there was
at least one used sauna there. Sometimes a used sauna is good, as it has
"off-gased". Plus there is the financial aspect of things.
What is the make and model of your FIR sauna Brenda?
