That's if you want to buy six of those funny little fellows. These are varied in terms of their condition and from a quick glance, none of them is the higher end version.

Sometimes you look at an auction and you just know there's got to be a great story hidden there someplace.

That's a pretty epic picture. That auction will disappear at some point from eBay but for now this image needs to reside here for posterity.

Robert Johnson's mother, describing blues musicians:
"I never did have no trouble with him until he got big enough to be round with bigger boys and off from home. Then he used to follow all these harp blowers, mandoleen (sic) and guitar players."

Maybe if we get 6 people together here we could all get a killer deal...

I dunno. Could be some great playable mandolins in there. Maybe most of them.
I have played a fancier higher end Reverse Scroll Regal and actually had a lot of fun with it. It's kind of unfortunate that the silhouette is similar to the smurf hat, because otherwise the mandolins might get more respect. Out of context their look is no more ridiculous than the F style.
I copied the ebay ad to a friend who may go for it.
I haven't bought enough from ebay to know, but does the seller's saying wait for his invoice before paying with paypal raise any eyebrows, or am I just skittish.
I see shipping is $128.28.
Now, ready to depart for Smurf Central at $305!
Instant collection or addition to the beginning of the National Institute of the Reverse Scroll located in down town Smurf City, South Dakota. I think it may be near Wall Drug.
