Sorry if this is in the wrong forum.
I have a phone booth that followed me home a while ago. I had plans on building this into a game room, but plans have changed. I am renovating my garage into an office/workshop and it is kind of in my way.
Anyone out there interested in a phone booth? I would let it go for $200 if someone was interested. I may be able to help deliver if you are relatively close. Located in Reading, MA (just north of Boston).

Gotta be local for this one collecture; there would be no shipping this thing. It is big & HEAVY!!!
I listed it on Craigslist for $300, but thought I would throw it out to you guys for less.

That is a really great looking phone booth! Too bad I live no where close. I would think you should be able to get 3 bills for that easily. Good looking dog too. Looks like he doesn't weigh as much as the phone booth - he could be shipped easier.

Just out of curiousity, what are the dimensions on it. I grew up in Reading and now live in metrowest MA so it's a possibility for the manroom I'm working on, I just have low ceilings so that's the primary factor I must consider...............

height-wise you are looking at 6 1/2 " ft, maybe bit bigger. so figure you need 7' to be able to bring it in on it's side then tilt sstraight.

No one wants my phone booth? Measurements of booth are: •Height: 82.75" •Length: 30.5" •Width: 30.5" Weight- heavy To stand this guy up, you would need approximately an 89" to 90" ceiling height and a few strong friends to help. I will go & measure it to make sure that estimate is correct (the height part; you WILL need the strong friends)

It is exactly 88.5" on the diagonal. As long as the ceiling is taller than that, you should be ok.

Damn!! Good luck flippa, I think you're basically giving the thing away. I wish I could take it off your hands but I'm working with an 80" max height. When I did my addition it was either lower the ceiling height or shell out another 3 grand for a rock drill to break up a rock ledge my house sits on. Best of luck, good looking piece.........
