I was very tempted to put in an offer on this ste to replace the reproduction one I have on my Profile.

So if you were considering it too, be aware :daumenhoch:

Far too shiny for my tastes......

They were'nt show polished BITD. Another pointless polish!

Pardon my ignorance but what are you indicating?

Cracks where the arrows are :daumenhoch:

Is that an original Terry, if so the design leaves a bit to be desired ???
Also are the bolt heads usually so close the the corners of the cap or has it been "restored" and over polished?
-
In the ad he says there were no issues before polishing ???

Yep, that's an original Clint and very very hard to come by.
I also agree it has been stupidly polished but you can actually get it redone to leave a 'grainy' finish, which is what I would have done if I hadn't noticed the cracks in the back.
This is the re-issue of it...

Funnily, I was chatting to my mate just now about it and I raised the way he actually says that. It's like admitting they are there without admitting it :knuppel2:

He's now got his own phone and put that battle scared keyboard down for a moment.

The same seller has a VDC Chimp listed as well.....
I contacted him yesterday to advise him it's not a frame SET and that he should revise his listing to save himself/the buyer any hassle.
I've had no reply :popcorn:
