I use this web site.

I guess the difference comes about as yours is probably set on OZ time and the one I use another time zone and so they update at slightly different times but I wouldn't quibbly over £1 as I'm sure my bank charges would eat that amount up anyway.  _________________ http://www.freewebs.com/ozsteam/index.htm

Well, I just got back from the Suzie Quatro concert to find that BS won it. He got a bloody good buy as it cost me near on $300.00 when the postage, burner & new paint are taken int o consideration,
Cheers

Who knows what he'll do with it, maybe put it in his window and sell it from there. That's what i get for my total honestly.

I really thought you would get at least 200 for it.
I haven't seen too many older (pre 1950's) Mamods on OZ ebay, but what I have seen generally don't sell for much different than say a 70's Mamod. Don't know why  _________________

The buyer got it for a great price and I am surprised it went for so little.
Was sure it would for over $250A. I regret not keeping close eye on it - would have loved to add that to my collection. End up being distracted by chasing an SEL lineshaft when i should have been watching your engine  |

You never know your chances, if he hasn't already got a buyer, my betting is that it'll be back up before the weeks out, .
