    I got my swaty probably two years ago from Tilly. I think I paid about$25.00 for it. You might contact her I believe she goes by Redtrader or something like that on Eboy. She might still have a couple.

    Hey there Big spendur (sounds good)

    I contacted Tilly a few days ago, and she said she has none in stock at the moment, but could probably find one for me. Only thing is she reckons she cannot remember all her emails that she sends out to buyers and who wants what. So she says keep checking back at her web site, thing is when I did check back today, I don't think it has been updated since early November.

    Wow, that's awesome, Peter. Mine doesn't have papers but it has the bottom part of the box. I see alot of swatys on Ebay, but that was the first time I'd seen one that size.

    Default interesting

    A few auctions for the Swatys seem to be fetching absurd prices, one cleared $61 on ebay today.

    I decided to pay a few bucks more for a belgian coticule.

    Dave,

    I was the one who bid $60 and was beaten in the last seconds, it did not give me a chance to respond.
