If it had been a tenner, I might have had a go at it, but £75?????? I've bought some junk in my time, but never paid that much for it.

Well, somebody got a nice looking set of bellows, some straps, a bass mech with mostly decent buttons, at least some of the Corona bass end - buttons over a quid a pop if you need to replace them. some Pokerwork metal corners, bass plate, at least one air button assembly.
Not to mention four bellows pins and a couple of conversation pieces of cabinet hardware.

So, not a bad deal if you do any fettling. If they'd been Pokerwork sized bellows it would have gone much sooner.

Point taken, Malcolm.
I seem to be pre-programmed to not speculate without a foreseeable outcome. Although, with the benefit of hindsight, maybe that's the reason that I didn't manage to accumulate for my old age, haha!
