Ya I was surprised that I got it so cheap. And it looks brand new. The dude still has the box it came in. Ive wanted one for quite some time and yesterday was my lucky day
So it arrived a few days ago and It even came in the original packing! Seller said it was never used. It was stored all these years in the box. The sun was shining threw the window and it looked awesome with the sun lighting it up.
Search ebay once and a while and dont bid on it rite away. But make sure you put in your watch list and wait till there is like 15 seconds or so left and put in your highest number willing to spend. As long as there isnt a crazy person out there willing to pay hundreds, you can pick it up for a decent price like i did. Mine is mint condition. I as shocked I got one.
Nice find! I got one a few years ago and paid about $300. They are a nice little piece of history that goes with our cars.
I did a little internet research on the company that made them - it was a German glass (well, crystal) company. They did lots of different cars, but they went out of business in the 2000s I think it was. Too bad - I had a German speaking friend all lined up to contact them and find out more about the models of our car. I'd love to know when they were produced and how many were produced.
Enjoy, they are not super rare but they are not common either.
