Hello, nice looking M1 National Postal Meter on TradeMe right now

Already has a bid of $900 and no sign of the reserve yet!
Probably wants $1050 or more - seems like too much to me

Marlin made quite a number of barrels - have seen them on Inland, National Postal & Quality Hardware Made M1's
Here is a picture of one:

PostSubject: Overpriced m1's   Wed Feb 27, 2008 10:54 pm

Pleased no one went close to that price!

3 M1's now on TradeMe
If price was more realistic, would try to get them
Feel that over $820 is too high unless a really hard to find one
