It also pays to know Red who knows people who know people....i've been looking for these for almost three years. Every time they get listed they sell out in no time. But get on one of Red's legendary lists and things happen. This is the result, two healthy Borbs in QT

Thanks for your kind words. Glad I could help a fellow hobbyist. Very cool pics. Thanks for sharing.

P.S. - It's not necessarily "people who know people".....it's compromising photographs and recordings. jk

I think we've seen BOTH sides of that coin at LFS. Some people spend like $ is nothing. Other times we've seen some person(s) haggle as if their life depended on it.

No worries. Never hurts to ask. What I find reasonable; another may find ludicrous and vice versa. Potatoe - Potato E-mail sent.
