I offered £2k but that was a little less than the seller wanted, though I won't lose sleep over not getting it. :LolLolLolLol:

Maybe if I had a sniff of it in the flesh it would have tipped the scales, seriously though I had a big clear out at the back end of last year and on reflection I decided not to take it any further, I've still got 13 sets hich is still too many. :LolLolLolLol:

maybe it was a wind-up, shall I try and confirm it?
