Presently the bidder is from the Netherlands. I wrote the seller to see
if I can get a ballpark idea of what his reserve is, we'll see if maybe
he's concocted a roundabout way to still get the $5000 for the machine.
I really don't care if it was serial number 000002, I don't see the
value in it myself after seeing 30 or 40 of the same machines run over
with a bulldozer back 8 or so yrs ago in a military surplus yard on a
base I was on that is now closed in Illinois.
