[GreenKeys] Lorenz version of Model 15 on eBay

[Paul Heller]

Ignore my last email. My conversation was earlier when the buy it now option was at $1500, and there also was a make offer option at that time. Now the seller seems to have changed it to buy it now at $2000 and removed the make offer option.  Maybe he got too many offers that were not of his liking. Crazy. 

73, Paul
