In the auction pictures, this UM looks good. No yellowing of the plastic window, no visible dings, and the seller disclosed a flap crease.

How long does the 2nd chance offer last? Would the winning bidder with a feedback of 196 w/ one neg in the last year really not pay up? Would a seller with a feedback rating of 23 try and do someting?

Do you really want this? $257 is a good chunk of change, it's 2/3 of a spinner belt (:chuckles.

You could buy it using PayPal & a credit card. If you get screwed on the deal, you can file a claim and get your dough back. If it does come in as described and you don't like it, you can always sell it a few months down the road and turn a profit.

Of course, you don't want to listen to me...I just paid up $220 for a pee Magnus. :dunno:
