Wayne-Tec Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Someone is getting a bargain if the Action #1 closes at 355K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think of that, you are probably right. I keep thinking I just bought my 4.5 blue a few years ago for less than this one went for, but maybe it was longer than that.

I don't think so...book would end up about a 1.0 if they did that..I'd leave it as is.. Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Action252Kid Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I think the Action 1 is going to end when one of these last second "snipers" loses their internet connection trying to get one of these 10 seconds left bids in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's just my screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqeggs Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 And if you are having the cover cleaned anyway, isn't there a way to remove the rust stains? Maybe not -- I don't know that much about these things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
