Brown Old Mill at a bargain!

Yeah, I saw it on ebay. When it went over $40 I gave up. I didn't think it was worth that kind of money.

Just kidding.

I just heard about it this morning.
As unhappy as I am about missing it, imagine how the consigner would feel if he ever realizes what he had.

How did everyone on Net54 miss something like that? Don't many of you go over all these listings with a loupe and a fine toothed comb?

[thehoodedcoder]

So how did everybody miss it?

[ullmandds]

i missed it...cuz I wasn't looking!!!! Even I'd have bought it!!!!

[Sean]

I missed it because my ebay search is for the terms Brown Old Mill.

The title never mentioned brown, so it never showed up in my searchs.

[thehoodedcoder]

that is like hitting the lottery....

i feel like an idiot for not seeing that.

I think I may have seen it but saw trimmed and blew right by.....you have to scroll right down to see the back........figured it was just a reg. old mill that was trimmed....but being a pre war seller, wouldn't the seller know what it was? And if it didn't seem inline with its worth, make corrections? Unless there is something less than honorable going on....... who knows? Hell of a deal for the buyer, good for them! Dave.
