First evidence of new pricing policy:

Not all original, but still.
I'm sorry they don't ship internationally.

Auction's over due to error in the listing. The error probably being that it wasn't priced $1000 or more higher.

They used to list a beat up 73 . I wish they would list it again at a reasonable price. I need an early 70's beater for Marcproject III.

I went by there while the auction was still up ... by the time I got there it was sold ... it has some non-original chrome and it has a neck repair ... while I was there a manager was lecturing an employee about people in the stores are not customers unless they buy something ...
