If you look at his other adverts the seller is also advertising the original labels for a more reasonable starting price of £14.50: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bluecol-drain ... 2ecdda0a3c

He is also selling 'repro' ones for £5.90 but you would expect to pay more for originality, if that's what you were looking for: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Heater-Drain- ... 2ecdb9cbe1

A 'bit more' maybe - if you are so inclined - but these are a joke.... More fool anyone buying them. :roll:

I bought a good original at the National a couple of years back, I only paid a fiver if memory serves. :D

Perhaps I should stick it on eBay for a ridiculous price, make a fat profit :P, then replace it with a cheap repro........... :wink:

As there is already an advert from Barking methinks I should advertise from Bedlam....... :lol: (insane :lol: of course)......
1954 Series 2: 4 door: "Sally" -- Back on the ground with (slave) wheels, now being sprayed by me, slowly......
1970 Triumph Herald 1200: "Hetty" -- Driven back from Llangollen in Wales (twice.....)
1952 Morris Minor MM highlight with sidevalve engine still fitted, wants work, so joins the queue for now......
