Well, I decided to pass on that one and have been looking for a similar one ever since; not that I don't love my truck camper, I do, but I just feel pulled towards getting a small class c. This evening I was looking over the west Chicagoland craigslist and guess what I found? Yes! A cute lil' 20ft. class c! It's only 35 miles from my house! If this isn't a sign to go and take a look at it, I don't know how much clearer fate could make it!

Go. Look. Take Pictures. Share with us. Hope it's what you're looking for.

Finally got hold of the seller, I am going to look at it on Saturday morning. Thanks, Beth for the tip on taking pictures, great idea!

Does anyone know where to find free Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) I think it was Maggie who used to post who seemed to know about where to find them but haven't seen her here for awhile. I'm looking for information for a product called Charlies Soap. The girls who clean for me use it and I read what it says on the label and it claims to be non-toxic. But when I saw how well it cleaned I started to doubt the claims. I found one site that wasn't official that said they had contacted the company and the response they received did not address their concerns. I would think it illegal to advertise a product as non toxic if in fact it was not but, I would sure like to know for sure The link that the site gave to a MSDS had been removed when I clicked on it.

I googled for it and got it several places. One you can get the pdf from here. One other said it was the official msds, but didn't just ingredients, saying that's proprietary. This one is lots of pages and I didn't download all of it.

http://www.msds.com has a listing for Charlie's Soap and you can get a free report it looks like. They want you to turn off pop-up blockers so I didn't follow through.

http://www.charliessoap.com also has info about each of their products.

the link Beth posted has the msds
http://www.charliesoap.com/vendor_center.html
I didn't find any pop ups on this link and clicked on Technical info, the msds is in there, several pages but it opens in a pdf file.

I think they have to supply you with msds if you request them; I know we had to get them for all the different chemicals and paints we use at the body shop. I just found them all online and printed them out.

Thanks everyone, I found the Data sheets but I'm still not sure about them they all have the Charlies Soap logo on them. I've found another site that says this about the product.

"It lists one of two active ingredients as "2-BUTOXYETHANOL".]
Read more at http://www.kitchenstewardship.com/2011/ ... 1iugXoB.99 " But when I click on the link that they provide that is suppose to bring up the data sheet, I get a notice that it is no longer available.

And then this site gives it all D and F scores http://www.ewg.org/guides/brand/6611 The site also has this to say about all MSDS
"Although hazardous ingredients are usually listed in a specific ingredients section on an MSDS sheet, they sometimes appear in a section titled “Regulatory Information” at the end of the document because of state regulations that apply to some specific chemicals and ingredients, typically byproducts or contaminants. In some cases, EWG found harmful chemicals listed in these sections that did not appear anywhere else."

So what to believe!! I have noticed since they cleaned the outside of my kitchen cabinets that DH has been coughing a lot and my eyes burn. But both of those symptoms could also be related to the cold dry weather.

My doctor took three samples for biopsy last night; one on my temple, one on my neck and one on my back. She also "froze" some precancerous skin on my temple above where she took the biopsy. 7-10 days for the results to come back.

Well, ladies, I now know why the seller didn't respond to my request for additional pictures and why none where posted with the ad. :shock: Definitely NOT worth what he's asking. IMO, not worth much at all. So we politely thanked him for his time and allowing us to look and told him it just wasn't what I was looking for. Wasn't a wasted trip though, we went shopping and met up with a friend of my friend who lives near there and had a nice visit. :D

I won't even look at ads that don't post pictures. For every RV you look at, you find out a little more about what you want and don't want and can narrow down your choices from there. Good luck!
