<p>[QUOTE="Quant.Geek, post: 5190049, member: 74799"]I bought a Bulgarian Trachy on ebay for about $40 with a really nice strike, but not the most perfect flan. It was an addendum to an existing trachy that I had that wasn't struck that well. That one I bought for about $200 several years ago. A similar one went for 1,400EUR on NN today <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie100" alt=":wideyed:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.
