I noticed that as well: http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,29493.msg555057.html#msg555057 ;)

Guy listed Classics as Tomo's and would not take my advice, even when I showed him the pictures.

so far come across a few items which were priced nicely, or with end with few bidders.
happy trolling.. :D
and feby is bad for cash flows.. :pok:
