View Full Version : Beaumont, they sell typewriters? kintml2u 06-27-2002, 11:57 AM Hello David and all! I was wondering if you could tell me if they sell typewriters at Beaumont. Do you know? vnvdvc 06-27-2002, 02:39 PM You can probably call the place and ask at the front desk. They might even be willing to send you a copy of the store list?? Who knows? Tell me if they do that for you, OK? Shortie 06-27-2002, 07:08 PM I know that eastham they sent me a copy of the store list.. you would be surprise how exspensive things are.. high way robbery... they should be arrest for theft and rape.... LOL Sandy 06-27-2002, 08:54 PM Your right shortie ..what they charge for things is outrageous... My friend, on death row in Texas, paid 200 dollars for the old, used, manual typewriter he has. soraya 06-28-2002, 01:11 AM it is crazy for sure!!! like they don't make enough money already! I don't know if they sell typewriters there, but you can call the place, to find out kintml2u 06-28-2002, 05:37 AM AG, Is your friend in federal prison? That does seem high for a typewriter. Shortie and Soraya, Thanks for the replies. Any help is appreciated! vnvdvc 06-28-2002, 06:17 AM Mybe he was allowed to bring it in with his personal possessions on a transfer form another facility? $200 for a used hunk of garbage?! .....sigh.... what can you say that we haven't already said about these places?!! kintml2u 06-28-2002, 06:22 AM Yeah they are a rip off! But ya gotta survive! I still wonder, I have had wrong answers before from these places! Thats why I usually call on different shifts to get someone elses opinion! kintml2u 06-28-2002, 06:24 AM And thinking about the 200 for a used piece of Sh*t, they are probably recouping 100% plus of what they paid for there own old equipment! Just pulling it out of storage! LOL CREAMYALMONDZ 06-28-2002, 06:49 AM Are you refering to Beaumont Juvenile Detention Center in Virginia? I'm not sure though but that is a surprise. kintml2u 06-28-2002, 06:51 AM Creamy, No the USP Beaumont. Thanks for the reply! sherri13 06-28-2002, 07:27 AM SOMETIMES WHEN YOU ARE ON A LEVEL SYSTEM, INMATES ON TOP LEVELS AN HAVE CERTAIN ITEMS BROUGHT FROM HOME-MAYBE A TYPEWRITER IS ONE??? DJohnson 06-28-2002, 10:18 AM After reading Sandy's post about a typewriter that was $200 I wonder how much my EJ paid for his. I was actually surprised when he said that he was going to purchase 1. I am going to have to ask him to send me a copy of his store list. I am pretty curious as to know what they sell now. ;) Sandy 06-28-2002, 10:29 AM Diane..he's in the Polunsky Unit in Texas. I'm not for sure how he purchased his ..but let me ask the lady who purchased it for him ..maybe she'll have some answers. I know he purchased it while he was there. vnvdvc 06-28-2002, 11:17 AM If you guys get any lists try to remember to post them in the archives so we can all be good and nosy! kintml2u 06-28-2002, 02:15 PM thank you all for the input! Sandy 06-28-2002, 05:09 PM Diane..I checked and found out that typewriters are available where my friend is ..but commisary only usually has a few to sell at a time and don't always have them available either. Hope that helps a little....:) |
