Imagine my surprise when my $900 BIN disappeared.....how or why does that even happen?? I'm not complaining.....just...damn!

[running-man]

Sometimes people just get caught up in the moment and try to get it cheap, then others come afterwards and simply fail to see the BIN. Then, once it breaches the BIN number, the original bidders won't be outdone. Then it's bizarrto world. 

Really was a nice one Pat. Having handled it would you have said it was 'new in the box'?

"Really was a nice one Pat. Having handled it would you have said it was 'new in the box'?"
Thanks....I will want that one back eventually....(Already)....lol....
It most definitely was new in the box. The nicest in the box I've ever had....period. Had two importer stamps on it too! Texas and LA I believe. Simply no dings or marks that I remember.  Got that one off of Proxibid originally with the 26 bring back.

Definitely an excellent specimen, Pat! That's the problem with selling those seldom-seen, rarely owned pieces. Sad to see them go.
