That shop is on my way home, I'm tempted to go in tomorrow and casually ask about the machine.  If I do I'll report the hilarity.

I've been searching high and low for a bottle opener that crusty color of rust! It's very rare! Very hard to find! Just like on AR!

Geezch, you'd think they only made one of each machine out there sometimes.....

It wouldnt even be worth stopping.  It looks like Westinghouse Master.  $300.00 tops.
 
Prices that high you'll never get them down to the market price.  It only takes one buyer though...  laugh

Oh I have no interest in buying it, it would be funny to hear the logic in that price.  I already have a WE-6 in way better condition than that.  I gave a whopping $95.  They'd probably want more than that for the bottle opener.
