Just spotted this on ebay - wow I wish this was mine!! How can such an item end up on ebay? It is sad. Have even sent a few Pm's to GR members after having searched.

oops it's getting late # 320030535036 The ebay seller didn't put surname or place in the ad - mores the pity. Maybe Muswell hill billy should sort him out!

I'd love too but ebay have just told me I've exceeded the number of messages I can send out. Good job too. I should be in bed.

Actually if you put 'Barrow Hughes' in the advanced search and select 'search title and description' it does come up.

Thanks for that Billy, I've been Ebaying for years and didn't know that about the advanced search bit in text! I do wholeheartedly support your ebay messaging and have done a fair few myself, but haven't yet been told I've exceeded the number of messages yet! The reponse I've had back has been a bit of a mixed bag. Most seem to say they will definitely consider putting names/places etc on their listings. One even said she had already been contacted about this!! LOL

Welcome to the cause! I've messaged ebay to see if there's an easier way of contacting them all.
