    Hi Robert, as Zoomer says - it went for cash (bank transfer), sold via another forum.

    Marco - all recent posts were private, I no longer trade.

    May I ask what price you were asking here?

    The reason I ask is that these sales threads are a very useful resource not only for buying and selling, but also for people who want to see what prices things are fetching on the market. When the original post is edited with the price changed to "£ SOLD" it removes this very useful information.
