The above pictured switch is available for $75……… if you think you can make one for twice that, I’ll take a couple. [email protected] to reach me in Norwalk, Ohio

$75 just seems a lot to me for a switch.

I don't know much about these, but that looks like a fairly scarce item. I can tell you that if one needs to be made, it will cost a lot more, plus it won't be original. Just my opinion.

$75 is cheap for an uncommon original switch that it might take another 10 yrs to find as a spare... if at all.
