No, that's not what you were trying OM. You were trying to deflate the price  
of the original by asserting it wasn't worth it--at least when I'm selling 
it. Or should I say specifically when I'm selling it? I don't see any comments 
of yours  regarding (the recent) sales by someone else, and I do see comments 
in two different sessions when --I-- attempt a sale. Interesting. I am not the 
only one here who noticed this.

I have a suggestion. Why don't you sell your nasty ol' ORIGINAL Mercury key 
for say, $200 (which is at 50% of the original price) AND BUY A spANKIN' new 
BENCHER VERSION FOR $450!

This way, you will have accomplished your goal: set the 'latest' resale price 
of the old stuff ata a more 'realistic' price, and also have a first hand 
review of the new one compared to the old one. We all would benefit: Bencher; a 
deserving CW op now a new part of the N2DAN key clan; and all those owners in 
the clan wondering how to dispose of this chrome plated lump (heheheh!). 

Why I bet you'd have no problem selling that ol' junker. Why, I might just 
take it off your hands myself:-) I spent some time in the '80s playing 
arbitrage. No problem.

;-)

73 and di-di-di-dit   di-dt,
