i was the high bidder the last time this was on the bay and my winning bid was 753.00. it did not make his reserve so i offered him 853.00 plus shipping after consulting w charles andrews; this guy would not budge an inch and both charles and i agree that he will not get what he is asking for. burl simon in los angeles 12.03.04 where i bid like reynolds steel tubesets are numbered 531.00, 753.00, 853.00 etc.
