If’n ya can’t see it there I’ll “bite the bullet” and repost here.

 

I can see it from the USA.

 

So it's been lost in plain sight?

 

Yes, the few who are interested in rare cannons didn’t know it was there.

 

Makes you wonder what else is out there. It's not unlike picking, isn't it? You want to be the one who recognizes what no one else saw, even though it was right in front of them.

And it's a treat when you find something.

 

Spring, don't know if you saw this at Motleys:

Thanks, yes I’m glad u reminded me, I asked them about one item but haven’t heard back. They’re an odd house, unless they are liquidating one plant only (like this auction) they have tons of their own junk they keep putting in with high reserves, until some newbie overpays for it. The online auction they held recently was like that, fully 20% of the junk was passed due to failing to meet their high reserves. Makes you wonder! If u want to bid on something at that place, put in a tiny bid and if reserved, a sign pops up “reserve not met.” Then forget about any reserve item there, just their junkyard stuff coming up again.
