I just bought two from this eBay seller off site.
I understand he is going to list a few more to sell on eBay.

The seller, Joe Martella, seems to be a very stand-up guy. The other day I contacted him to clue him in on why he received a flood of orders on New Years Eve. He found that most amusing.

Since then, we've exchanged numerous emails, including the one where he admitted getting his *** handed to him regarding these tins. It seems he purchased a number of them years ago. But when he started fulfilling 'our' orders, he realized that half of his inventory was in fact comprised of tea tins. He seemed genuinely sorry and claimed that he immediately refunded the affected buyers.

So in turn, I led him to Rennlist. He has an '80's-era 911 and is excited to have found the forum.

It's good to see that Ebay still has honest sellers...
