$25 for a 2-line 5.8Ghz phone.

I ordered one because I've wanted a 3rd expansion phone.
(In my case I have an extra charger from my 1-line Uniden phones of old.)

BTW, it is no longer very expandable,
because they are not making them new any more!

Yes. Decent price even though refurbished.

Here is what I have been buying.

Uniden Cordless Answering Machine with 2 cordless handsets. Seems to be refurbished but not mentioned anywhere. Works well - $29.99

That is a good deal.

I prefer without built-in answering machine,
and the two lines. All-in-all 5.8Gz is becoming
bargained priced.

So the handset arrived and looks to be working fine.

Now I have a spare 2-line base.

Only odd thing was FEDEX got all the way to Canton, then handed the delivery to USPS.
Can't complain for free delivery. It got here just fine.

That's funny as I received a package today that was routed the same way. Wonder what that's all about..

I have received a few packages like that before. I am thinking the USPS has contracted FedEx and UPS to do some of the work. I thought it was odd when I saw it on the tracking.

Looks like this has been around since 2004...

Cool! Thanks for the link.

That link didn't work for me. I don't know what it says exactly but basically the USPS made a deal with UPS and FedEx to be point of delivery for certain packages and besides receiving some of the revenue, the USPS gets to ship it's overnight packages on UPS and FedEx planes since the USPS doesn't have it's own planes any more.
