Thanks everyone...

if any of you visits the youtube video for this engine, I would appreciate some positive comments regarding your opinion about this engine or your dealings with me with me in the past.

i think this will help buyers get an additional sense of confidence when bidding on such a potentially expensive item...


Hi Peter.  Lyle Knox here; I sent you a couple messages through evil-Bay earlier.  Sorry to hear you're having to sell this great piece.  I'm definitely watching and will have my Euro version up if I get this one.  I really don't want to have to spend another couple bills to buy a step-up transformer just to steam mine, so this is a great alternative...if I can afford it.    I'd still appreciate a PM about the reserve, unless you'd really rather not share; just let me know.  

Take care,
Lyle

Don't know if I can go to the end with it or not.  We'll see (not got my own tax info back yet).

It hit the $1000 mark last night! I am so happy! The auction ends tonight! I hope some heavy hitters come in at the end, but even if they dont, I am satisfied with the current price!

Thought I'd bring this forward for anyone to watch some last-minute bidding.

It's got 20 minutes and at $1115!

Wonder how far away the buyer is from you. If a Money Order is being sent from a distance, 5 days isnt out of line ( why I LOVE Paypal ) figure a day or two to get to the PO or Bank to buy the Money Order and then the speedy Postal System is to blame some too. However I think that an email would sure make on feel a lot better. Lets hope it is not a non payer.

I will call him today, got information from EBAY. IO didnt even know I could get his home contact information until today. Lets see what happens, lets keep an open mind. Maybe he was just away, or waiting for lil-Bush's economic bribery check. lol
