At first glance it looks like a nice horn on a poorly refinished case but well worth the asking price of $800. Somebody should buy it! Jerry

The case looks like it was stripped, but I don't see any finish applied after the fact. Somebody will get a nice buy!

The ad has been taken down. It must have sold. Hope somebody here picked it up.

I tried and I am only two and a half hours away and would've picked it up yesterday and paid in cash but somebody from Wisconsin got it. The seller was honest and I appreciate that. I hope it went to a good home and that whoever got it enjoys it.

Yes,The machine was sold on Friday.
Although I'm in New Jersey, my in-laws are less than an hour away from the seller (just outside of Atlanta), so I gave it a try.
I left two messages, but did not hear back from the seller until late Friday afternoon that the machine was sold.
I was hoping that someone from the forum got it.

I do think for a moment that he did consider selling to me instead though because he told me it was verbally sold to another person, but he then asked "you have cash, and you could pick it up when, tomorrow?" UMMMMM, no, If the sale with the other guy falls through, I'll let you know. So he was honest in keeping his word with his original sale, something you don't find much anymore, gotta respect that.
