My friend, I don't know how long you've been at this game, but I've been at it 
for 35 yrs. I've seen many machines in those years, and never have I seen this

form. Perhaps YOU should have bid on this machine as you have defended it so 
vigorously...........

My apologies; I didn't mean to turn that into an argument.  But I will 
gladly take Victor exports matching my description off anybody's hands, at 
those Indian wholesale prices  :)
