- Maine has a lot of things to teach us, but here are 3 things we learned when we bought our house in Maine.
Music: Carpenter by Huckleberry Flint (used with Permission) - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I have family in Maine and have been looking at land up there to retire to but I live in Virginia. I will warn you that while you own the power pole and wires from the road to your domicile realize any repairs required if say a tree falls on it will fall to you.
Also you are in Maine where to use a Southern expression most folks are "fixing to" get stuff done. Not a lot of sense of urgency but really good folks. It takes a while to make a friend in Maine but once you do it is for life. Best wishes in your new spot.
Welcome to Maine. Laid back is very true. I moved from a area of low crime but here in Aroostook when to pull up to a grocery, mall etc. and most of the vehicles are running with no one in them, you know you're in a different environment. P.S. ditch that Oregon hoodie.
Yeah, & get plates changed ASAP. They don't like west coasters. :/
@@theresam567 complete lie.
@@theresam567 Is that they, or I?
Maine was my grandmother’s favorite place to be, she was from Georgia. She loved art of the lighthouses as well !!
I'm In Portland, Oregon and planning to move to Maine next summer.I'm glad I found you guys here. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Let us know if we can help facilitate your relocation!
It's beautiful wonderful tough and real living☺️
I grew up there, and it's the kind of place where most kids are bored and can't wait to leave and see the better bigger world, but then realize what a beautiful wonderful place they left behind and end up back home🙏
You must really like all four seasons though, to be happy there. Good luck with your Maine life!
We both have experience with the cold, we love it here
Ok, you two are HILARIOUS. I've lived in Oregon my entire life (40 years) and the hubs and I are thinking of moving to Maine. Thanks so much!
You can email me with any questions katie@teamshoe.org
Thank you!!🤩
@@stephaniecompton4222 you’re welcome, though we’ve only been here a short time, we would be happy to share some insight
Hilarious, you two are a hoot! Greatly appreciate the video, the wife and I are in the process of doing the same thing. We’ve been looking for that perfect place in Maine online and finally have it down to a few properties to call on and hopefully schedule a trip to go see before we purchase. Also out of state buyers. I gave ya a thumbs up and subbed your channel, looking forward to seeing more updates, thanks again.
You two are so much fun! Thank you for sharing your journey to the island life! All the best to you and the new Homestead! (set back some funds in case your electric lines go down.) Welcome to the snow! AND the snow shoes!
We have a new back up generator with underground lines
I've been looking at Maine for some time now.
I'm so glad that your channel came up.
I "liked" and subbed to your channel.
Let me know if you have any questions about Maine. Katie@teamshoe.org
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker Thank you very much!!!!!!!
Can't wait to see what you do with it...Thinking you are in for some great fun times!! Congrats!
Thank you so much!
Welcome to my state. The best there is.
So that is very unusual real estate transaction. We have purchased 3 homes and sold two in Maine. Although we are Maine residents so I didn’t know about the 2% for out of state buyers. All my closings we same day at a title office or bank. Welcome to Maine.
Hope all is well. We bought a house and land there in November. We had very much the same experiences. The tax thing blew my mind, but the fact that neither sellers showed up to the closing I drove 7 hours to be at was a real eye opener! Well, it's all good and can not wait to get there this spring. Maybe we will cross paths one day.
We're lucky to have you! Nice spot.
Thank you! Very helpful advice. We are in the process of moving from Idaho to Maine (formally from Oregon) and will soon be placing an offer. You should do an update to let us all know how things are going. Cheers!
I can't wait to get there, sounds like a cold 1970's Florida!
Thanks for the heads up!
So cool. Thank you for the info.
Good information, my wife and I are traveling to Maine in a few weeks to look for a summer home, we are a little further west than you are so it’s gonna be a little challenging
Y'all are hilarious. So happy you've found such a beautiful spot!
Thank you, we try to be who we are in real life on camera too. We are super happy about our house and can’t wait to finally move in. We’ve got some pretty crazy plans for that coming up in the next video.
I love Maine! So much better than the west coast.
Welcome to Maine!! We moved here from California 2 years ago. Love Maine!!!
I visited Maine in 1975. Fell in love with it! We're also in California, and are itching to get out. My first choice is Maine.
@@nomopms1 OH God, please don't add to the exodus.
@@mic4902 Are you in Maine and hoping no more Californians move there, or are you in California hoping ppl will stay and try to save it?
@@nomopms1 I'm in Maine, and realize that it won't be long before the cost of living here resembles what these fools are running away from now (and not only California). In some parts of this state, that is already well under its way to becoming reality.
@@mic4902 Part of the problem is that sellers are jacking up their prices hoping a Californian will pay it. We've been looking in Tennessee, as well. I had my eye on a house that was priced around 200K. After about 2 months, the price changed to 800K! I couldn't believe it!! We're not rich, and we're retired. It makes me sick that ppl in other states think Californians are all rich and are willing to pay astronomical prices for their houses. We have many other reasons for wanting to leave the state and go elsewhere. At this rate, we may end up staying or finding a patch of snow outside of a bears cave in Alaska. The bottom line is GREED.
Good video glad you know about how things can go in Maine. As they say
" It's the way life should be." And remember it should stay that way.🙃
Just go with it. Don't try to change things. There is an old saying " What's good enough for my father & his ect. Is good enough for me.
Oh & Unless Your Born in Maine you'll never be a Mainer you'll always be an Out of Stater. Mainers are the salt of the earth. Good luck🕊
Mainers are idiots to think that their relatives didn't come from somewhere else. If stupidity is the way life should be, yeah, Mainers are exemplary of that motto.
We are in Massachusetts and have been looking for a homesteading area with little to no restrictions (except for the septic system),any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I just stumbled upon this channel, glad that I did as well as subscribed. Looking forward to hearing about your journey.
So many people come here from out of state thinking it's so cheap to buy/build. But the long term costs make it difficult for most to stay. So many brand new empty huge homes sit abandoned and for sale cuz they can't afford to actually live there.
I love hearing this, haha.
In your opinion what is the solution? And what eventually happens to the property.
@@zxcccccc1 there are currently thousands of homes in some stage of foreclosure across the state. That's one thing that happens to them. Go particularly up North and you can also find ruins of old buildings everywhere too. Many utilize mobile homes to keep their taxes lower. Finally, plenty of places are seasonal rentals, because it's more economical/lucrative for those who otherwise could not work up here.
@@zxcccccc1 really all depends on what part of the state and what someone's expectations are when moving here. I live in a rural tourist town. People love to visit in the summer and love what it has to offer and visit every summer so they build a home. Then winter hits and the population drops by 75% and all the cool places/restaurants shut down for another 9 months. Alot of people from away don't understand that.
hi there im thinking of a tiny house im Maine,now that they have been oked.at 50 thousand or so im hoping to find one!..you both look good together!
Going to subscribe to you very interested in buying a house in Maine. I grew up in Washington now live in Upstate New York 66 and now looking for land.
Really appreciate your insights. Did you buy your property sight unseen?
Probably, like a lot of desperate fools.
Just signed a contract on a house in Oklahoma and we are in Suburban Chicago.
Congratulations!
Everything is archaic here in Maine. The DMV here does everything by paper and snail mail. You have to hurry up and wait for everything. I’m originally from D.C., so it was definitely something you have to get used to.
It’s not exactly cheap as people might think either.
Its beautiful and I’m lucky to wfh, so I can’t complain too much.
Yeah, excise tax is a b*tch too, isnt it. Just wait until the property taxes here shoot up from all of the bidding wars and excessive over valuing of properties from these refugees.
You haven't dropped your "g's" yet. When I watch presentations about Maine properties its' always look at this livin room. Makes me crazy, and I'm from Massachusetts no less.!!
I recall paying for title insurance when we closed on our home in NY many years ago. So if you got a Reader's Digest version of a report, what where the closing fees?
Around $2000 for title fees
Yall are cool 😎 I love the west coast, welcome to the east coast
It's a very very slow pace of life ! There will be an adjustment period for sure. Also, make sure you have more than one heating source for your home and get yourself a good pair of arctic muk boots. Something that you are going to have to get used to are the insane amounts of deer ticks and protecting yourself from Lyme disease. Black flies and mud season, week long power outages ( make sure you have a generator ) car inspections, higher cost for car insurance and very long winters. You'll want to get to know your neighbors because life in Maine is tough and you'll find yourself needing some help and advice from your neighbors on how to get through, tips and tricks of Maine living. Get yourself some wool socks !
Great video, made me laugh, we also have building codes in our town in Maine...just one. 'If you build something, make sure it's 25 feet from your neighbors line." Now, with that being said, if you want to move to Maine, remember not to try and change it into where ever you came from. We had our neighbors dog bark non-stop for 7 years (we were grateful when it died!), and we never complained...why? Because when we wanted to run our chainsaw at 5 am building a house, the neighbors also didn't complain. Being a 'good neighbor' in Maine means basically ignoring a lot of stuff you may not have to put up with in other states, like...a junkyard out in front of your neighbors property...in Maine we are allowed 3 dead cars in the yard at any given time, and this really isn't enforced all that much. And those poles you own...yes, they are ALL yours...so when a tree comes down on them and they snap off, you get to buy another one...but each and every year you get a handy guide in your light bill that explains just how much that little mishap will cost you...LOL Well, that's my 2 cents (probably worth half of that), and welcome to the great State O' Maine!
Thanks, all those points you made are the reason we moved and the reason we are so happy here. Everyone minds their own business for the most part and if someone wants to shoot, no problem. We have befriended all Mainers and are trying our best to integrate and become part of the community and culture. Quite the opposite to some people around here who now want a loud noise ordinance, lol, in a rural area it is ridiculous.
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker Well, that ruins the rural nature that they were enjoying before you and others arrived. So, you blame them? I had loud car stereos before moving to the state 15 years ago. I cut that out quite quickly. It's called making sacrifices to enjoy the change you embraced when you sought refuge from your troubles elsewhere. Small price to pay for the savings you gain in getting out of more expensive locales.
We bought our house in Maine and we had to pay the 2.5% because we were buyers from out of state! I was like wtf but we got a great deal and i didnt mind paying it after i raised hell about it!!
Did you buy your Oregon in White City? I'm in Eagle Point, so that came to mind. We are going to Maine to look next month. So over the heat and smoke here. Just stumbled on this video - interesting!
Yes!!! We used to live in Sams Valley. Let us know if you have any questions about Maine. Katie@teamshoe.org
My question.
If, you already has the money to buy the house with your spouse what are the other requirements will you need in terminal of documents?
Mainer all my life, and an islander 2!! lol ya, all are cute Haha! :) Welcome to Maine~
We love it here and the funny thing is, we are friends with just Mainers, nobody from away. Doing our best to integrate and love the Maine culture and way of life.
We wear Bean boots thank you very much.
Mainers like to speak their mind, and be left alone at the same time , in my eyes youre a Mainer ,so start fitting in, contribute to it
Shhhh… don’t give away our secrets!🌲😊
You should all know that we here in Maine love our state EXACTLY the way it is. We are not "woke," we are human. We are gun advocates because we have dangerous wildlife in our backyards, we have hunting because we are hungry carnivores. We have mosquitoes and stinging insects. Don't come here trying to change us. Stay home.
If I want to change anything about Maine it’s the xenophobia and hostile comments like these. Did it ever occur to you that we might’ve moved here because Maine was exactly what we wanted? Maybe go back a few videos on our channel. I’ve even shot dogs going after livestock. Perhaps the stinging insects are people like you.
@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker lmfao "Maine has the lowest crime rate in all of america!" Also "Maine is the whitest state in america." Hmmm HMMM how about you stfu and go live with the Somalis in Lewiston if you hate xenophobia that much?
I live in Los Angeles, and I'm considering buying a house in Maine and moving up there to live year round. I'd love to see a video about what you learned living in the woods in your house there, especially in the winter. How did you get food? Did you store it frozen, buying 6 months worth, then eating it all winter, or were you able to get to the store? How much was your heating bill? Things like that. Love to hear.
Wow, are these serious questions...
Do yourself a favor, stay in L.A.
Woww..
I’ve lived in Maine most of my life and there was only one time I could t get to the store in the winter. It was during an ice storm which is rare
@@scota73 Thanks. My concern about moving up there to live full time in a house in the woods is that I'll get snowed in during the winter. Sounds like that would not be the case, however.
I have so many of the same questions! I’m a single woman living in Atlanta for the past 30 years, and I’d like to get a place in Maine with lots of acreage, for the summer months, so I can enjoy nature, fresh air(without AC), and wildlife. I’ve only lived in busy cities so I’m pretty clueless about homesteading, but we can always learn the ways of rural life. I hope that commenter who said to stay in LA doesn’t represent the sentiment of most Mainers. I’ve always heard how friendly they are. BTW, there is a cute Diane Keaton movie, about a high power career woman who moves from Manhattan to Vermont, after she gets a surprise inheritance of a baby she has never met, from a distant relative. It’s from the 80’s, but I’m sure could still be relevant.
I currently live in California, and I have been looking at homes in Maine (I would be a cash buyer) and I’m hoping to make the move within the next couple of months. This video has helped tremendously! Thank you!
It is buyer beware out here. Get a contractor you trust to do a home inspection. There are a lot of places building codes are not enforced except for plumbing and electrical. And depending on the area, don’t expect high speed internet. Just a warning.
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker I actually decided on Maine! I went there and absolutely fell in love. I can’t wait to relocate and start my new life there in the spring!
@Fred Trump unfortunately these states start to get overpopulated by them and slowly starts turning into what they left
Please don’t leave us alone here in our state.
I live in the center of Maine. Lincoln. If you are rich move to the coast. If your a outdoorsmen go to the north. Stay away from Kennebunkport
Oh my stars . Welcome! If you travel to The County, yup a whole other place…..in Northern Maine. Stop on into the Mapleton Diner would love to meet ya and talk for a while……
Yes! We’ve heard about The County. Where is the Mapleton Diner? That would be fun
We moved up to the county a few months ago.We love it!!!We where living in the Farmington area our house was to big for just the two of us now that our kids are grown.So we went for more land and a smaller house!!!!
@@lissa755 Did you screw over your local residents and also sell your home for an inflated value? Same mentality, just to make it cheaper for yourself for a time.
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker the county is typically northern maine. Presque isle is the biggest town north of Houlton. It's also how you get to mapleton(I lived there until I was 8, then we moved to Presque isle). I recommend stopping at Houlton dairy farms, there's one in Houlton and Presque isle 😊
It’s incredibly expensive to live here. I hope you both do well and enjoy being here.
I heard too many horror stories and we passed moving to Maine. Taxes go up every year, which we are not use to in Pennsylvania. My retirement accounts would be taxed and I would need to pay state income taxes on my retirement. I currently pay no taxes on retirement or any state income tax. Then there is yearly taxes on your vehicles that you own. Medical care is lacking unless you are near the larger cities. Beautiful but expensive. Fuel costs to keep your home heated, buying wood in certain areas is non existent. Horror stories about the cable and electric companies and their rates. You need at least two sources of heat and a home generator is needed some places since you may be out of power for an extended period of time.
Those are all valid points. The yearly taxes on vehicles isn’t forever if you have used vehicles, the income tax went down for us coming from Oregon. We are near Bangor so medical care is fine, we own a wood lot so firewood isn’t an issue. We bought a backup generator and our power is cheaper than it was in Oregon. Our property taxes are low because we have our property in tree growth which is a tax incentive discount on growing trees for lumber products. The cost of living is lower here for us so we are happy. Hope you found your forever place.
I live in Maine and you are pretty spot on with all your comments
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker umm, whoever told you that excise tax on automobiles is not forever was lying to you. It just goes down the first 6 model years, and from then on is the 'same' based on the current mil rate of taxation.
@RB Musser: Yep, they all think taxes are cheaper and this is some conservative refuge from 'progressive' states. Nope, and those rates will become even worse in coming years as a result of the exodus and influx.
You own the pole and line, you repair it from the street/utility ownership point.
That’s why we have buried it from the pole to the house
Liked and subbed. Looking for a home now in Dresden.
What are the winters like? Cold but details?
It's cold and winter lasts a long time, but it is beautiful, safe, and wonderful for outdoor activities. We moved here 10 years ago from Virginia.
@@katherinecollins9636 Virginia sounds like enough Winter...lived in NE most of the years.
You won't like it. Stay away.
@@mic4902 LOL!!!!! Now, I'm starting to wonder if you're the "Maine Grump". Your comment cracked me up!
@@nomopms1 haha, yea, this was my playful side, actually. Hope you like 30° below zero, and I'm not talking about a wind chill. Make sure to either be fit enough or budget enough to take care of 15+ feet of snow that doesn't sublimate like out West. I've long since hoped that would keep more people out, but alas the brave (and the foolish) keep coming. Thankfully not all survive, lol.
Well Wellcome
Why did y'all stop uploading videos???
Maybe, like so many others, they regret the decision now, haha. Thought it was a great way to TH-cam, and just didn't pan out as they hoped, lmfao.
Who was your realtor?
Can i ask about the bugs, since you are right on the water?
Maine has a lot of beautiful places. The air by the coast is great! I was hoping people from the west coast escaping climate change would move here. I did. We need to expand the Downeastern train to connect east and west of the state.
I too am an native Oregonian that has watched my state become swallowed up by the decay of Californication/progressive policies etc.... I can't afford land here anymore and I am looking to come to Maine for the cheaper property prices and hopefully more conservative, traditional values.
Pffffft, you deserve to be taken advantage of here. Welcome! Lol
You're going to love the conservative taxes here, hahahahahaha.
@@mic4902 I just said I was looking into it, not that I made up my mind.
@@Helmholtzwatson1984 Lower your expectations then, big time. If you do what so many others have, and sell your home there for an exorbant amount, only to buy here for what seems like cheap to you, but is really the inflated prices that have grown over these recent years (that investors, speculators, and even Mainers blinded by money have encouraged), then all you're doing is chasing greener grass, but only for a time. In just the decades that I have lived here, it is this migratory habit of people from states like yours, and the original posters home state, that has quickly started turning Maine into exactly what you are running away from. You know that old saying that you cannot escape your problems forever, well, that's true. Maine will be another West Coast wasteland (enviromentally, financially, and politically) of its own in another, oh, I expect 10-20 years tops. The process was sped up just that much more over these past two years. Massachusetts and New Yorkers have been helping all the same, even long before the rest of those who think this is some long term safe haven.
@@mic4902 the only hope is the californians, Oregonian, and Washington folks can't handle the winters and leave asap. Maine is definitely becoming more like cali every month. I really do hate being so mean, but its just facts the more they come from those states the faster the state goes to hell. Look at texas, so many californians turning cities into shitholes like where they came from. I have experience in both places changing for the worse and its unfortunate they turn their new homes to what they left behind in the first place.
180 ft run of wire and poles that your responsible for. be prepared to bury it, i would. thanks for the info
My hubbie and I have been looking in Maine. Its cheap...But OMG...RESTRICTIONS...HOA'S NOOOOO heck NOOOOO
ok...so you didn't have to pay the 2.5 points tax? yeah...I'm looking for a place now online from the w
left coast...
Correct, it’s a tax non resident owners have to pay when they sell their Maine property
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker OK...thx!!! What a great spot you found...I'm looking at south Aroostock...gonna farm me up some taters...
@@itsbjorn make sure you know it’s referred to as The County so you blend in a bit better. Great area, lots of land up there.
OMG that's crazy !! Why would u have to pay that nooo
Please don’t change Maine to Oregon when it comes to voting. Great video
We love Maine and don’t want to change anything about it.
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker oh, you will. That is inevitable and already being seen around the state. Mind yourselves.
DId you leave all of your weirdo ideas back in Oregon before you got to MAINE?
Describe weirdo ideas…
we do not eat BBQ in New ENgand.
Lol that’s ok, I’ll take the fresh seafood anytime
Speak for yourself.
The buyer has to pay sales tax if purchasing from out of state? I guess we know why hardly anybody ever moves to Maine, right?
No the seller has to pay sales tax if they live out of state. It just sounded like we owed it from the form.
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker so is the seeker live in Maine would they still pay the sales tax or the buyers?
@@carmencolon3520 if the seller is a Maine resident, it doesn’t apply.
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker Good to know. I just bought an rv . I think there's a video of your wife showing trick and hacks how to use the oven in an rv?. Need to learn how to everything in an rv kitchen.
@@carmencolon3520 yes, she used a baking stone in the bottom of the oven. Made all the difference
bs if you are from cali they tax you on everything to bags n straws....lived there done that.
Wowed. Nothing like slamming the original mainers. I've lived and raised my kids here for 30 years. Not a local yet but wow guys you really need to check yourselves. Hear Florida likes your kind. Hopefully you change your attitude, you don't know what you'll miss. Goodluck.
I have no words, this video is just about things we encountered buying a house and our initial reaction. We are honest but we are not slamming Mainers. There are things that happen a certain way in Maine and if you took that as us being critical perhaps you need to calm down. It is what it is here and we are fully committed to making our home here. There are cultural differences everywhere in the US and we were just bringing to light what we noticed to let other people know.
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker be honest, you want the attention because you've devoted a TH-cam video to it. So, calm down there yourself, bud.
@@mic4902 that's how you make $ on TH-cam, by getting people's attention.
Arent yo now the butcher baker and bread maker?
Are y’all real estate agents????
Used to be, not on Maine though
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker I knew it, you're just that much more a part of the problem. You'll definitely drive up prices, and are the reason why rates will go as high as they need to.
Umm tree RESTRICTIONS !!!
can i live next to you.....lol...im normal i think...lol..i added you good healthy wishes to you both!
dude lol she is gonna smack you lol.
Mason
Let the lady talk
Story of my life 🤣 ~Katie
sorry oregon, cali, maine.. you all mixed up.
Too much talk, not information.
They only did this to try and cash in. It's all a facade.
Ugh, I'm in northern CA, been trying to move to ME for yrs. I need privacy, acreage, oceanfront (settle for tidal front), ag/rural zoning (animals), but can't afford anything. If settle for raw land...zoning, building, restrictions... I'll keep looking, but you other folks stop looking...ME sucks, go to TX, LA, places like that.
Lol, there are places here that have zero zoning, building restrictions are minimal. Perhaps you didn’t go far enough east in Maine. Good luck with your search the heat in Texas is what sucks.
Stay in your own state cheapo
Depends on the area you choose. In 1990 I bought four acres in South western Maine. I built a post frame hay bale tiny house, (600 sq. ft.) Building permit five bucks! The only inspector we saw was for the septic system. Lived in it four years and built a two level, (part in ground), super insulated, double walled, passive solar octagonal house. Septic system inspection only.
With so many new people coming in, things are changing.
Be aware of the utility companies. (BIG bills) and ever increasing tax's.
@@sueyoung2115 expect those taxes to skyrocket further, lol.
I was interested in the video but you guys are very confusing. Lol
We made this video to be no means a comprehensive moving to Maine video. It only entails purchasing a property in Maine and what challenges we faced. And as you can see the production value was very low, we were just making a fun video. There are plenty of articles with insights on buying property in Maine but we are not experts. Best of luck
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker thank you I will look for those sites. I'm also looking for my first home in Maine. No nothing about the process
@@richardfiedler2201 check property taxes before you look at houses. Some areas to the south have astronomically high property taxes. North in “the county” meaning Aroostook county, the largest county in Maine has a lot less property taxes than the south. We live in Hancock county and they are doable but we wanted to be on the coast. The property market appears to be cooling off right now, and there are a lot more listings. Also foreclosures are going to start hitting the market so keep an eye out for those. And be warned, the locals can be very xenophobic towards outsiders because some people move here and try to change it into where they moved from. Our advice is to find a place where you could be happy to live and just live your life. The people here once you get to know them are extremely kind and wonderful, but can have a hard shell like a coconut. It’s not the open friendly way of the South. People go out of their way to help you if you need it. Good luck on your journey, we are getting ready to restart this channel, but living here has been way harder and busier than we ever thought. There is always something to get ready for.
Maine is awesome, to bad it's a blue state....
More of a purple state
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker Scary... don't let that great state go downhill to blue...
@@ButcherBakerQuesoMaker Purple? not even close. It's blue at the ballot box.
😢Please tell me your not the CA people trying to change our wonderful state of Maine to a CA state?!? Such as the vote on electric car BS?!? Please tell me your NOT...we dont want Maine to be ANYTHING like CA.
Maine sucks. Don’t move here.
Details please.
