People Are Now Selling Vintage Pay Phones On eBay

We old.


Nostalgic for a time of great inconvenience? A time of loose change, or in more dire scenarios, 1-800-COLLECT? A time when you regularly put your mouth in close proximity to a spot thousands of strangers also put their mouths? On a daily basis?


You're in luck. Old, erm, "vintage" pay phones are now available in abundance on eBay.


For a mere $1,395 you can own this used phone booth, which is described as being in "excellent" condition despite "missing 2 plexiglass inserts."

Which seems just as annoying as it was in the '90s. But! According to the description: "This phone doesn't need any coins to operate but is set for coins to fall straight in the cash box so it can be used as a bank."
