I have one (USB) I am selling for $85 (this includes shipping)

Posted By: Laura E. on 2007-08-22
In Reply to: Emdat foot pedal help, USB or PS/2? - see msg

when I bought it I was told to get USB. I don't even know if it comes in PS/2 or not. It does not matter what your keyboard it as far as I know. My keyboard is a wireless with an transmitter plugged in at the PS/2 port. Ask the MTSO which you should buy and you should have your answer if you are worried. But if you want mine I take PayPal and M.O. --- it is basically brand new, used for about 2 hours, have original box too. But is is a IN-PI-USB. See my note on the Classified's page.

I'll pay shipping for some of that sauce! :)

I don't know how you find the time. Of course, then again, I've been back and forth on here when I should be finishing crocheting my new grandson's baby blanket.


Little guy had to arrive a month early when I only had 5 rows done. If I had done 5 more rows, we could wrap the munchkin up in it now. :)


Amazon has cheapest shipping (sm)
I tried transcriptiongear -- for what they wanted in shipping, I was able to buy an extra set of Sony headphones from Amazon plus pay for 2-day UPS shipping. Or try your local Radio Shack -- you can search their site online and see if something is in stock locally.
Try Ebay! Got mine for $14 plus shipping CD-Rom! nm

Shipping Internationally does not cost that much.
That in itself is a falsehood. Global priority mail envelope which would fit a pin or a periodical is 11.00 USA. They would just have to chart the Transcriptionist or firm that over in India. So, wondering if this small thing is a lie, what else is in this statement. Selling on e bay, I have even sent boxes of things overseas all over the world and flat rate box is 24 bucks USA. Just interesting they say 11.00 is high, for global priority. One falsehood leads to another IMHO. Integrity with falsehood. Interesting.
I saw these on Amazon for only $70 and free shipping!

They have them at newegg.com for $20 with free shipping ...
but it might be a limited-time offer.
J &R Electronics discount 83.00 with free shipping. sm
Not a bad deal.  just wondering about quality with just voice and not music. 
tvps.com is offering same day shipping if ordered by 3p. nm

I do, 20 bucks plus shipping. Pedal works fantastic, hardly used.

Her experience includes
She has SOME experience with transcribing psychological reports, but she does require terminology training in order to do other fields of medicine. I am a prior instructor of MT so I know how to do an OJT and create an excellent candidate. She is studying her textbook concurrently. It IS hard to find paid internships but I think it is an excellent way to learn, at the elbow of someone else. Thanks for your valuable input everyone!
I'm willing to compromise. Is there a company that only includes(sm)
basic patient info in the headers and footers and does not include all of the headings as a template?  What I've found is that these two companies have gone from originally just basic patient info in the header footer (which I don't expect to get paid for) to basically making the entire report a template and we're just basically filling in the blanks and hunting and pecking for the headings.  This, I feel, is just not right.  The excuse being used is that "it saves us from having to type that information."  It would actually be quicker for us to type it - even without an Expander - than to be doing it this way. 
Ours is "diagnostic data" and includes it all.NM
s
Probably because she needs a job, it's paying, includes benefits.

Read the manual again on how to use Includes.
My single words on the phrases side are in a separate glossary.
Thanks! Do you have a spellcheck that includes drug updates?

If your doctor includes your SS# as do many of the doctors I do, you better worry. I don't want

nursing shortage includes nurses for instructors...sm
you can't teach nursing classes without nurses to teach the classes - that's part of the shortage and part of the reason why the shortage continues. Also more nurses are going for the bachelor's degree (4 years vs. 2 years) and that is extending the time before they are out in the work force.
That price s/l it includes the software. I bought a pedal

just a few months ago for $70.00 that is  brand new.  It is an Infinity pedal that has been configured to be used with VXP.   It is also referred to as DVI, same software just different name.   I have been using it for 5 years and have had 3 foot pedals, none of which cost more than $70.00. 


If the test includes what a child SHOULD know, then there's no problem with testing for it.
s
Time to confront them and ask what the future plan is and if it includes you. nm
s
depends if includes headers, spaces, one or the other, character line, etc.
nm
Apply for a medical secretarial position, which almost always includes transcription in the job desc

Does this seem fair? To charge .16 per line - includes printed reports, copies on disk for one year

and delivery.  I do travel twice a week to this office.  Plus, at times I will fax or email the reports free of charge.  I live in Southern California in an upscale area. 


 


Thanks again!


Selling on E-Bay
I have quit doing MT and have been selling some odds and ends (clearing out my closet, etc.) on E-Bay and have done pretty well so far. At least I can realize some extra money which is more than I can say for doing MT lately. It's a good way to get rid of unwanted items and make some dough too, so why not? I have a cousin who is seriously into E-Bay, even going to college full-time, and she makes enough each month to make her car payment.

I think the money to be made is out there, just depends on how MUCH money you really need. I'm retired now so anything I get is a plus to me.
No, would be like selling my kid!
....
How is this selling out?
In any other world, getting a credential is not "selling out."

MT's stubborn refusal to value continuing education and credentialing goes a long way to explain the lack of respect we get in this industry.

The people who hire MTs and MT services are almost always credentialed.
I am selling one for $100, in box, Panasonic...
If interested, I would be happy to give you more information. This is the exact same thing, if that is what you mean. It lists for $267, but they are always $199 in stores.

Mine is gently used, in box, and $100 or best offer.

Thank you...

Selling business
This may not be what you want to hear but basically you are selling your client's name and hopefully they will use the new person.  I went through a divorce and because my husband felt that I had a "business" (I have 5 accounts) he wanted a portion of what it was worth.  I had to have someone come in and do an audit, talk to my accounts and give a net worth which he said was basically what I could sell my computer and things I use in my business and my business name which was not worth that much.  My clients said that there was a 50/50 chance that the would go with someone that bought my business and one account said that they would go out and find someone on their own.  With only one small client you might find someone that would pay you a percentage per month for a while but that would also be hard.  What if who bought the business was not any good and the client quit them after a month, would they still owe you a couple of thousand dollars.   Your best bet might be to find someone to subcontract for you and you keep on with 20 to 30% until you know that they are good and then ask for a month's income and give it to them.   Look at what your business brings in a month and you might get 50% of that.  I would not "buy" a client because they might not stay with me.  Unless a contract is signed all the way around and then there is always a loop hole for them to get through if they don't like you.  I have gotten two accounts over the past 20 years from gals that were moving or quitting and never paid for either one.   One has stayed with me for now 7 years and the other one quit after one month as someone in-house wanted to do it at night.   But that is my little knowledge.   If you had an actual business, office space, computers, etc. then that is a different story but it doesn't sound like you do.   A beautician does not sell her client list. 
selling house

You need to document all of this and write her a registered letter recepit requested ahd outline all of this and inform her that you are going to send a copy to the Stare Board of Real Estate licensing and do a formal complaint unless either release you from your contract with no fee or to start doing her job. Whichever you prefer.    If she is with a large company, I would also cc a copy to the broker/owner of the company.  You do not need to take this nor pay for cancelling her contract if she is not doing your job and that should be stated somewhere in the contract.   Also the state will investigate this and it will be a mark on her name.  You can always call the state board and see if there are any complaints against your realtor.   But you don't have to take this kind of service.   But forewarn her of what you will be doing.   And like I said if she is working for a large company like Century 21 inform the broker -- call her office and ask who is the manger/broker and talk or just send them a copy of your letter.   They do not want any investigations believe me as it ties them up too much.

Selling the BOS to MTs in other countries?
Does the AAMT really sell the BOS to MTs in India and Pakistan?  Can MTs there belong to the AAMT?
Selling jewelry sm
I have some to sell as well and was wondering about E-Bay. Do you know if you have to pay taxes, file forms, etc., if anyone does buy anything from you on there? Does anyone else have ideas that do not involve getting a business license? I think a tag sale would bring people around who would only want a quarter. I could use some extra cash and the things I have are nice and never worn, not a jewelry person but have made some from fine gems. Been thinking of where to go with it.
How about selling Avon?

selling home
Has anyone sold their home without a realtor or with one of those FSBO companies?  If so, I'm just wondering if it was easy or a hassle. I'm getting ready to put my house on the market but hate the thought of paying a huge commission to a realtor.  Any input is greatly appreciated !
selling house
Yes, this was something I was looking into also - around my area it's Assis2Sell and they charge a flat rate, no matter what your house sells for.  Thanks to all of you who replied with some input on this.  
selling home
I just saw a segment last week on the Today Show about selling a house and because the market is soft now they advise if you do not have to sell your house right now anywhere in the US, not to, take it off the market and wait until the spring of next year. I know homes in our neighborhood where they are usually bought within a matter of weeks have been on the market for 3-4 months now even with a reduction in the price. They said on the Today Show this is a good time to buy a house, but not sell it, because buyer's are taking a lot longer to choose a home and not acting quickly on buying the first house they love when they see one. Just telling everyone what I saw.
selling home
Unfortunately I don't have a choice about when to sell as this is due to divorce. :(
selling home
When I checked their websites (Assist2Sell, etc.) it seems they offer different packages, some of which include "full service" so now I'm getting a little confused. Aren't these flat rate places still realtors?
selling snake oil?

So for the second time this year, "At Home Professions" has come calling to town to give their big seminar.  The flood of calls to my house start coming in from people I barely know or hardly know about all the fame and fortune of being an MT. They are telling people they could start at 15 cpl and make 50K per year.   Are they even a real school?  I want that job! 


Nevertheless, I get the calls about how wonderful and terrific working at home is (not that it isn't, but it is hard work!), how "I listened to what they had to say and I can do that" (like it is no big deal), and basically how "easy" it is. Sigh.... I feel like I am explaining the science of building a rocket to my 5 year old who just wants to jump in and take a ride!


Selling plasma sm

Has anyone tried this as a way of making extra money?


I really need to find an additional source of income and the local plasma center is paying out about $200 a month for plasma.  Can't work a second job outside the home because of mom with Alzheimer and 2 teenage boys that would likely kill each other before I could get home. 


I know! I'm trying, trouble selling mine!
I'm doing everything I can to get out! It's awful...3 years ago nicest, quietest neighborhood you could ever want.. Now, AWFUL. Homes unrecognizable in some areas.. homes that were nice! It's sad.
Trailers selling for $1M+ in Malibu now. You go, G/F. -sm
Yep, there was an article on Yahoo yesterday about trailers in Malibu for over $1M. In a place called Dume Park - not "doom" but "do-may".

I lived in a trailer at one time. Now I live in a house I paid cash for at the city tax auction. It is sweet not to have to pay rent or mortgage.
They started selling it, sorry to hear you
are losing money, but glad to FINALLY have an outside source reaffirm what I have been saying for two years, Docuscribe cheats us out of lines. That is one bad thing about computers/technology, no proof except the sweat of our brows (or fingers as the case may be) and they can say "It's just you", as they have been doing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Selling business deleted?
May I ask why the selling business messages were all deleted?  Was something said that should not have been?  Just curious so that if I said something I do not do it again. 
Selling body parts in the US sm
There was a brief mention of a recent arrest (I believe it was in New York) of a phony business set-up involving funeral homes, etc., selling bone grafts, etc. from dead bodies (one was supposedly Allistair Cook's body of the PBS fame) and replacing these parts with PVC piping in some cases. These people made "millions" and the patients/families had to be notified. One man was practically crying because he had been told he has to be tested every 6 mos. for HIV, hepatitis, etc., since he had a recent surgery on his neck. They said it may not present itself for years in some cases. They showed some gentlemen being led away in handcuffs but the story was cut short. Anyone else know about this travesty and why so little else has been said about it or is there any web site, etc., that explains it in more detail? Would like to know morel I am very concerned for the recipients as well as the unbeknownst-to-them "donor" families.
selling real property
I, too, am a real estate broker and agree with you 100%.  Selling real property is not like selling an automobile or a piece of furniture.  There's a lot of legalities when selling real property. 
India's selling itself short, too. nm

Question about selling used Stedman's

I was hoping someone here could help me out.  I was thinking about selling 2 of my electronic word books since I don't use them any more and was wondering if I have to call them about the whole licensing thing and get that taken care of...or can I just sell them right out?


Thanks! 


Selling your client list
Does anyone have any interest in selling some of their clients?
The hype that went along with the selling was not true
Do you remember being told how many more lines you could get by VR? I would hate to have to live on what I make now. Most places are going to go VR though I firmly believe. My VR now is leaving off periods at end of sentences, not putting in the doctor's names when they are said and for some reason when the patient's name is given no way does it resemble in any way what the name is. At one time it did all the above, but once again changed.
I have no problem selling on EBay and would never consider bullying anyone. SM
I have only had two buyers who never paid and you can get your listing price back by filing a claim with E-bay.  I have had two sellers who never sent merchandise, but overall, I love E-bay.
