Well, I didn't get the Riley grill. The seller sent me the email below, and
I responded by offering him the B#25 off ebay. He responded that he now
wanted B#30, so I backed away. He's pulled it from the auction now (where I
was
high bidder) so I guess he got a better offer.
I'd feel better about it if he's kissed me.
Hi Robert,
About 9 b 10 pounds weight including packing materials. I should say
however, that I have received quite a reasonable offer for the Grille off e bay
from
a private advert. Unless the bidding gets to about B#25 plus I will probably
cancel the auction prior to its close.
Regards.

finally, against your better judgment, to listen to country music.

Can you give me a weight so I can calculate the postage?
