Only has a day to go and is still very cheap... If it stays that way its worth it even just to look at...

What are these worth? Keep in mind that most projects that need cosmetic work never get done around my place. Mechanical, electrical no problem.

I think $300 is book value - $150 would be a good price. Mirror might cost a bit to get made - up to $50 or so.
Parts are readily available from www.pennyscale.com
Hard to say whether it is complete - I thought there was a cover over the fortune and I don't see it, but it could just be stuck open.

If no one else is going to bid on it I may it's only about 45 minutes from me. Why I don't know just because it is close i guess. I wont bid if someone else wants it though just let me know.
