Savoy C Box Re-Listed

Have you Braves been following this auction?

It was listed at $1,500 and now re-listed at $1,375.

Too bad that money is tight right now.

For $1,375, I could drive to work a couple times :-)

It is that same outfit that had the photos from the DIY film Marc made. I don't trust this at any price!

Ahh .. "I see!" said the blind man!

Who Would Know?? The Reverand would know.

Yeah that box sounds pretty hokey for the way it was presented on ebay (then and now).

The seller is in Douglas Arizona.

Now there is only one person I know of in Arizona that would be "in the know" about someone having a legit Savoy Box in Douglas AZ.

The Reverand J.P. posted here years ago (some may recall).
He and his Zydeco band are out of Tucson Az. http://members.cox.net/katnsteve1/bio_jp.html
