Anyone fancy a 280VS ?, located in Glasgow.

Sweeney Kincaid are auctioning a 280 VS. I thought about it, but my old Viceroy does all I need at the moment.
Here's a link:

BUT....
BEAR IN MIND....
The bid price doesn't include buyers premium and VAT, this adds about 30% to the final price.

Sold !, for a total price of £710.70 (if I got my sums right).
and if you want a good laugh, its now on Ebay asking £1600.00
using the same picture as the auction Ad, and with a description
mentioning buying a commercial property.(?)

That's a lot more than I paid for mine, from a commercial dealer with all the chucks, faceplate, both steadies and a boring table, an inverter, including VAT and delivery. He might be basing the price on similar ebay machines, but should take note that some of them have been there for ages at those prices. Don't think this one had anything but the 3 jaw its wearing in the photos did it?
