Smoggy Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 I was watching that too Wayne, it's shot up since I last looked! £225 inc postage !!!! I've given up an ever getting a hand cranked blower unless I get extremely lucky....hence building the box bellows.... Quote
Frosty Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 How much does a new one sell for? If not the same brand a modern equivalent, the things are still being produced after all.If you got to auctions you see folk go nuts bidding, it becomes more important to WIN than get a good deal. It's easy to get caught up that way, happened to me a few times when I was younger. The local Auctioneers can legally work the audience with shills, (employees pretending to bid) Or just increase a bid as they wish. I just stopped going to auctions.Frosty The Lucky. Quote
Daswulf Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 I still go to auctions, just don't get caught up in the bidding frenzy. just stick to good deals. if it's a no go it's a no go. i've learned auctioneers to stay away from and ones that are trustworthy. Quote
