ok so its been a bit of a saga with the whole used brava buying and selliing but finally its worked out ok, and i havent done too badly. the large dome set i bought for $600 was a dud!!! the domes r so old they cant hold a seal for the life of them, so i got refunded all the money, except $100, as i decided i wanted to keep the sport box, (which works fine) filters, tubing, the skin cleanser and dome cleanser. Not a bad deal i guess for $100. I was refunded my shipping as well....But after that im out of domes, especially since i just sold my current set! ive stalled on postage for it cause im still using it! I did however find myself a very near new set of large domes from that jesus waits4U seller (who bought my medium set btw!!!), i paid $583 including express post (which is unfortunately $660 aussie dollars)... but they really do look completely pristine- and yes i need them asap.... they claimed to be used only once, well who knows if its true but they certainly look barely used at all.
So i got $330 back from the $360 i paid for that first brava system i bought (minus postage)- from which ive kept the brava sports bra, original safe keeping box, drying rack, 1.5 bottles of dome cleanser and a bit of skin cleanser, full bottle of brava skin lotion and full box of non sting prep wipes- i sold my system minus all the extras i received with it- so yes got to keep them all!!
And now with the $660 of my near new large domes and the $100 i spent on buying all the extras included in the set with the dodgy domes (filters, tubing, sport box, dome cleanser, full bottle of skin cleanser)- it works out that i got my system now with near new domes, and all the extras included in the set- plus extra extras!! for about $800 including all postage- taking everything into account! and thats including my having to upgrade dome sizes too during my program
So all in all it didnt turn out too badly! I know there are sellers who sell reconditioned systems for $800 USD which would be more like $950 AUD- and that may be before shipping too... and they dont include any extras except maybe the brava bra.. and i doubt the condition of their domes is that fantatstic either. so yes im relived and pleased.
and now on with my brava journey!!! Im at the end of week 3 now, and im also coming up to my period- my swelling is really sticking around- but more in firmness and roundness then size compared to last week. interesting.... I measured tonight before i put my domes on and im at 85 cm, or 33.5 inches, which is an inch up from wear i started- although at this time of the month when im getting premenstral, i am often closer to 33 inches than 32.5! so at the very least im currently up half an inch by the end of the day when its time to put domes on again.
