Not in the best condition, but good enough for me, considering I only paid face for it (well plus time and gas). Also, just curious if you guys think the other one had any value prior to the heartless graffiti being added to it. I'm not big on exotic serial numbers, but it did catch my attention, even though it's not quite a radar.

I can see someone still paying a small premium for the second one.   01-07-2008, 08:58 PM   #3 (permalink) RickieB Expert Plunger Sniper     Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: United States Posts: 7,394 My Mood: Reverse repeater Gatzdon...nice note...too bad the guy who wrote on it had not even the slightest clue!
