Spotted this one on eBay yesterday and no takers on it so I decided to give it a whirl and ended up winning it :

For 10 bucks plus whatever shipping I figured it wasn't a bad deal, or did I miss something here since no one else was bidding on it?

You do live nearby, right Tony? No shipping and listed in ebay motors got
you a real nice bargain.

If you have to pay for UPS to pack and ship, maybe not so nice.

I'm in Michigan and was hoping that UPS wouldn't charge an arm and a leg for shipping. As you said, maybe it won't be a nice deal depending on what they charge. Icon_cry
