Re: Wow almost £6k for a redial 1133b!!

Indeed Mark, although Google translate is very hit and miss, it did give an inkling of the refinish...and the fact that this one went to a similar amount as last weeks original dial is frightening!

Either way i dread those emails to my hotmail account where i have to break the news that the dial has been refinished, seems to be every week right now.

It's never good to be the bearer of bad news and ALWAYS better to ask before the event than after!

: some aren't as particular!
