Ed-Bill was just at my house and I re-scanned the RR40 to be able to
send higher resolution photos to interested parties during this E-Bay
sale, since Auction Watch has a 350KB posting image-size limit. These
are 1MG size photos for your review if you wish. Just let me know or
anyone else and I will send obv and rev separately as E-Mail
attachments. In terms of price-trust me he is making a good profit on
$10,000 and he has two others.
