Re: seems like a fair price or even a good deal
On the face of it, it doesn't seem bad for a working example with the horn, etc. Not clear whether the horn crane is all there or not. This is a seller with not much of a record established yet though--7 transactions.

Re: seems like a fair price or even a good deal
I agree that the price seems pretty reasonable. The nickel-plated H&S horn appears to be nice. It's refreshing to see a fair BIN price rather than the crazy figures that so many sellers dream up!FloridaClay wrote:On the face of it, it doesn't seem bad for a working example with the horn, etc. Not clear whether the horn crane is all there or not.

The crane, although serviceable, consists of a H&S No.5 base with an unidentified (but original) top section. (I have one of these top sections too, but haven't been able to identify it yet.)
