500 deluxe on Ebay now

[Stathamender]

There's what's claimed as a refurbed (all rings save butt and tip replaced, revarnished) 500 De-Luxe Avon on Ebay right now. See http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321447411238? ... 1423.l2649. Started off at 99p, which struck me as a fair price, but rapidly escalated to £57 with another five days to go. I'm a bit concerned that the only picture provided doesn't let one have any kind of close look at the rod. Have a look and see what you think.

Scroll down the page to see 6 close up, detailed photos. The gold label and the handwritten "500" match those on mine (mine is not 'de-luxe). This rod will get into 3 figures easily, I suspect.

The rod is being sold by a TFF member whose work is well known and of a high standard.

I think the vendor is one of our own TFFer's of whom I've never heard a bad word spoken! There are some large size photos within the main text of the listing.
