I should add, that MM2 that I recently won. Remember that one that you considered?

Well it's a little late to get fired up, but you will be real glad you didn't win it.

It has one small discolouration
That is the least of my probs. But I'll leave the rant for another time

It's a disgrace mate, they think they can get away with anything.

Have you complained to the seller?

Yeah I'm going to.

I never asked if it was repainted as the decal was on it, and partly deteriorated. Underneath base has been reapainted too

So I won't complain about that. But as the burner was a little strange looking, I asked about corrosion

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISA...em=270049670077&rd=1&rd=1

They said The burner has some corrosion to the handle end

That's true, handle is about to fall off. Not to mention one side is pushed in, and there are holes all along the side of it from corrosion

OH not again Wallace, what is it with you and corroded burners?

maybe you can take the end caps off and make a new middle bit?

Sorry to hear that, complain though!

Its possible to think from the pic the burner is covered in soot - not paint!!

Indeed Mike, and that's what I truly thought. I only asked about corrosion as I wasn't sure if it was a brass/chrome burner, or just brass. I haven't taken paint off yet, so still don't know

MM, I put pics up. Only thin that's salvagable is maybe one end cap (I can't remember), the wooden handle, and handle shaft.

I'm more than dissapointed with it
