WOW!!! His grandma had not one but two of these "rare" machines with "cygnet" horns!!!
Some Ebayer already gave him the bad news, though.
Check his other items...............

Bill,

Did he say if it was "orig." or not? It does have a cygnet horn-it was bent though so he straightened it.

I'm not sure if the sellers "THANKS" is you for the help or blowing a chance at any bidders? Good work Bill. I buy most of my cylinders off ebay and I have had a few questionable dissriptions. Kevan

Actually Kevan, I never contacted the seller. Someone else did!! I have had mostly good experiences with cylinders on Ebay as a whole. I always check the seller's feedback to see if this a usual venue for them and also how many negs they have.

So have I Bill, I think it's the best resorce for me. Its just that one you really want and you don't know the seller and you take that chance.
