[GreenKeys] Missed Mod 33 cheap

[Ken Wiebe]

I actually pounced on that one and got it :-)

The auction was set to end this weekend but the seller also accepted offers.  So I went in low but wound up getting it for 500 after seller counteroffered.

The seller sent me some additional pictures under the cover and it looked really good.  Better than any other one I've seen on ebay.  Even before joining GreenKeys I missed a 33 not far from me, sold for 500 on ebay and it didn't look near as good as this one.

I'll find out for sure when it arrives, but I am confident it will at least be in the $500 value range based on what GreenKeys members advised me a few weeks ago as to valuation.

So I knew I would kick myself if I didn't get it.
