Warning: The guy (his name is Ian Priestly) who posted item 
#320291783487 is a crook.  I bought 2 A-types from him years ago.  He 
said they had been rebuilt but they were both POS.  One had bits of 
dog food inside, the other was little more than recyclable 
Aluminum.  It took him over 4 months to ship them to me; he gave one 
excuse right after another, each of which seemed plausible.  Since I 
really wanted them, I ignored the alarm bells.    By the time they 
finally arrived, it was too late for ebay to do anything.  And I made 
the mistake of sending him a check, so I was screwed.   I know of a 
fellow Lister who bought a J-type which was also a POS.

Danger Will Robinson, danger!
