Not Really Fantastic

Postby nvmos2 » Mon Feb 03, 2014 10:04 am

This find isn't really fantastic, but more of a pleasant surprise.

Years ago, I left my calling card at a small country antique shop.
Recently, one of the heirs called out of the blue;
the owner died a year ago, now they were cleaning out the warehouse and had 4 slots to get rid of.
He sent the photos below.

I only wanted the Roman Head, so I went there to try and get just one.
I was disappointed the Gold Award mechanism was swapped out of the Roman Head, but made an offer on that one anyway.
I even made recommendations on how to sell the other 3 and what he could expect to get for them.
He only wanted to sell all 4 and be done with them; so the deal was made.
Now I need a Gold Award mech and to make room for 3 other orphan machines.
