My Dad bought a condo, maybe 10-15 years ago. The seller was a HK lady moving back to HK. She had a huge Sony CRT tv with an HK plug attached to it. We were hoping she would leave it for us, but I guess she took that gigantic TV back home.

Handed over, not returned. Hong Kong was never a part of the PRC, so couldn't be 'returned'. Thus it was handed over after the original agreement with a previous government expired.

Not a big deal but I feel the need to correct it every time I see someone say "returned" :p

Moto and Nixxo pagers. Only numerics so you'd spend so much time trying to figure out 111467*743*074312*93125017*11165*7491176

The first TV remote. If you clinked your beer bottles together just right, you'd change the channel.
