Jeffries: Norway flea market find

[RP3]

Well, we have GPanda back again, but here is something new: a flea market find from Norway! It looks like it will need a full rebuild -- complete with new bellows -- but for fans of the 38 button models, this could be interesting.

I don't understand....

 

What is gpanda's involvement in this sale?

[RP3]

There is no relationship between the two -- they're just both on eBay! The Norway listing is brand new and, of course, the GPanda one is a relisting of the custom Aeola anglo.

 

Sorry for the confusion.

Ah-- now I get it. Thanks.

Oh you shouldn't do that, Ross. Gpanda is a confirmed lunatic/sod/whatever but clearly someone to keep well away from, whereas the Norway one looks a thoroughly straightforward and sensible seller quite openly cashing in a lucky find. Very unfair to couple the two together in a way that suggests they're linked in any way.

 

I presume Gpanda is G P and A, by the way.

It seemed clear to me that Ross was not "linking" the two, but contrasting them.

You interpret "Well, we have GPanda back again..." your way. I think it was naughty.

Sold (to Chris Algar, I believe) for GBP 4,157.57 ($6,633.40 US).

And a very nice, and probably profitable, find for the vendor.

Mind you I think it sold for too much given its less than perfect condition - those bellows and ends will need some attention - wonder what state the innards are in.
