Edison Standard on EBAY - Be Warned

Post by Shawn »

For anyone planning on bidding on this item, be warned.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/150894934430

The entire top casting is repainted/ re penstripped. This item sold previously. The seller refused to refund payment even though they did not disclose this point. Of course, EBAY stepped in a completed a full refund.

You will note that this seller continues to list this item as "fresh from a local estate", failing to point out that it is repainted.

I thought that would be fairly obvious due to the grass tufts only having 3 blades?

The pin-striping looks a bit too wide.
