How much will you give me for this genuine authentic antique,
vintage, one-of- a-kind broom? It'll be 22 years old this May 5th.
Only used twice by a little old lady from Pasadena. Genuine machine
wire wrapped, original stitching, and recently de-rusted and
refinished with phosphoric acid for long lasting, rust-free luster.

I ain't got much patience for dickering so make a good offer or my
broom and I will walk.

I'll "nominate" Janet UK or 'Moron' Elgar for the broom, Steve...

They can stick it up their glabrous twots...

Especially the "phosphoric acid" bit...
