Mk IV and Avon on Ebay

Post by Nigel Rainton »

I don't know if anyone has seen these rods from Minehead . . .

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181044400320? ... 97.c0.m619

. . . or if they are being sold/bid for by a member of this forum. I hope I'm not pushing the price up against anyone on here ?

The rods look as if they have been restored, any comments ?

Yes Ryan the same for me, the whipping on the original has no gap and the whipping colour looks a bit purple
The bottom one

Its been a long day and I'm a bit tired and confused (and I don't want to offend anyone - again) but is anyone on this forum selling these 3 rods ? Please put me straight because all this lovely cane is getting too much !

I don't think that seller is a member of this forum, but he's sold some rods for extraordinarily high prices this last week.

Nobby, thanks, I thought that such a large collection of rods in Minehead would be 'known' to this forum. The prices are high but the rods are ready to use, nice Christmas present for someone :-)
