Dear Oneironauts!
By request (and thanks to those responsible for initiating this splendid idea) here is the place to connect with each other on lucid dream induction devices that you wish to "sell, barter, or donate to deserving cases" (to borrow Dominick's phrasing). As mentioned, NovaDreamers, as well as other TLI products, are no longer in volume production. Please feel welcome to announce your desire to purchase or to sell a lucid dream induction device here. We do request that you keep the purchase/selling arrangements private, so be sure your email address is available for inquiries. To check this, click on your name at the top of your posted message. If it doesn't appear, you can fix this via Edit Profile under Utilities in the main Forum menu.
Also, as a precaution, we suggest that you conduct your exchanges through EBay or by some independent third party so that both buyer and seller can verify product condition and confirm agreements before proceeding with any final exchange. The Lucidity Institute will not be responsible for any sale or exchange initiated on this discussion board.
Bright dreams to all! The Lucidity Institute
Hi everyone,
I appreciate TLI creating a forum in which devices like the Novadreamer can be exchanged. I've been looking for a NovaDreamer for quite awhile. Living on a student budget, I haven't been able to find one that I can afford. I just started a PhD in clinical psychology at UC Berkeley, where I'm getting involved in research on sleep. Many psychotherapists, I think, could better help their patients if they had a better understanding of dreams and their roles in mental illness. I feel like the NovaDreamer could help me form hypotheses on which to conduct research by allowing me to more widely explore the world of dreaming than I've been able to using the techniques found in LaBerge's book. And personally, I'm very interested in lucid dreaming. So if anyone has one that they'd be willing to part with, please email me at the address below.
Thanks,
Damian

Just contact me on my e-mail addresse billy_cv@hotmail.com
Thanks, Billy
Hi,
I'm looking for a NovaDreamer if there are any available. I've been using MILD and journaling my dreams with no success toward lucidity. When I become aware that I'm dreaming, I wake up immediately, no chance to spin!
If anyone out there has any leads, please drop me a line at: maevesintent@yahoo.com
Sincerely, Maeve
Maeve, try: http://americanbilling.com/luciddream_connection/novadreamer.html
I just bought one here.

Hello everyone,
I'm thinking about selling my novadreamer. It is in good condition. The mask is slightly worn and I had to make a modification on the mask fabric to widen the holes a little for the leds and infrared sensor. The circuit board is in perfect condition and is fully functional. I'll consider any reasonable offers. Just send me an email.

I have noted NovaDreamers on Ebay with some regularity. Using the Ebay method does provide some security and payment options that direct hookups via the TLI site may not provide -- eg. PayPal, etc.
I'd search Ebay if you don't find a friend on the fourm.
Cheers,
Dominick
I'm selling an almost-new NovaDreamer in excellent condition, with box and all original contents (book, manuals, tape, etc.) for a reasonable price.

Hi to all, I have just joined, and I would like to ask:- Is anybody there, willing to sell a DreamSpeaker? Or, does anybody know where I could buy a DreamSpeaker? I tried to look for it on E-bay but is not there. Thanks
DAN
I have sold the Nova Dreamer mentioned in my post of 4/21/05
Hello all, I do have a NovaDreamer I'm willing to part with, It is in excellent condition and comes with all the original content; book, manuals, CD's and of course, the mask. I also added a chinstrap which could be removed, as I found the mask would come off during sleep on occasion. If you are interested let me know, I'll sell it for a reasonable price! my email is stefans@catdaddy.com
Dear Stephan,
This topic thread includes "gifting" in the title. Now, I'm not asking for a personal gift, but as I proposed before a shared lucid dream experiment in Kalani needs two NovaDreamers. I'm getting one soon that I will modify to be able to remotely computer monitor and control in near real-time. The experiment needs two modified NDs so that the REM cues can be delivered in sync between two dreamers. Would you consider gifting yours to this experiment rather than selling it?
There is a very high probability I will be at Kalani, and will bring all my LDIS devices to demonstrate to whoever is interested. These include my LDIS with eye-tracking REM capability, multiple color LEDs, a sound cue interface and a vibration cue interface. Yes, it can deliver lights, recorded sounds and vibration cues concurrently. An ND interface box that can deliver vibration cues to a single finger vibrator, a glove, or it can operate a CD player. At least one modified ND that can be remotely computer controlled. Oh, and all the cool software that is the brains of the operation.
Regards,
Scot Stride
Dear Scot,
When Stephen returns from his workshop at Naropa, I'll check with him to see if TLI can offer one to you. Hoping to see you in Hawaii. ;)
Warm aloha! Keelin
Dear Keelin,
Thanks for checking with Stephen. Of course I'll need to make the mods and test them on my ND before accepting any gifts or loaners. However, the surgery looks simple and should not affect the function of the ND under normal operating conditions.
Regards,
Scot Stride
Scot,
I'm sorry to say, that I have sold mine. The experiments you are doing do sound interesting and I will be very interested to see how things progress and evolve!
Best wishes,
Stefan
Hello, greetings, and welcome everyone. It's been a few (5?) years since I've been here, but about 2 weeks ago my interest piqued again, and I'm once again actively experimenting with LD's and OBE's. The first 10 days, I recorded 8 dreams, and much to my pleasant surprise, number 8 was lucid. I was actually writing down #7 the other night, and remembered a second dream where my first reality test failed. I had tried to read some writing on a window, and when I looked again it was gone. I started to rationalize that it was nighttime, it was foggy, etc, but I remembered someone's post about, "if you're unsure, do another reality test," and so I started swimming in the air! Anyway, a little off-post. If anyone hears of any available Nova Dreamers, please let me know. I've ordered a remdreamer from the UK, but would still much rather get my hands on a Nova Dreamer. Believe it or not, I had one years ago and sent it back! Thanks for listening, Keith
Hi first post probably not going to be too many more. I have a nova dreamer lucid dreaming induction device, I am sure some of you have heard of them! This is the website that sells em http://americanbilling.com/luciddream_connection/novadreamer.html as you can see now for $699US which is ridiculous cause I paid $275 US 2 years ago. I have mine listed on ebay here in Australain dollars http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5846849727&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1 if anyone is interested feel free to pm me about it. I never had much success with the device but have heard people had great gains with it, sorry if this seems like a blatant plug but I just need to get rid of it as I''m not working at present and need the cash plus I dont use it and its being wasted sitting in its box. Cheers Matthew
