This is being offered at the moment, it doesn't appear to be the "dodgy" 1913 of a few weeks ago

It's always tough with a brand new seller. You never know if they are real or not.
"It's comparable to playing a cheese slicer."

"Bargain instruments are no bargains if you can't play them"
--J. Garber
The seller has no feedback and is selling in the U.K. while the instrument is in Madrid. Hmm....

I should really be practicing instead of sitting in front of the computer.
Madrid's only 1000 miles from southern england. A lot closer together than most places within the US. Someone who never used ebay before signing up to sell their old Mandolin? Maybe. I wouldn't bid on it.
On the other hand, it could be our old pal "Spoke" from Barcelona who's done a couple of fake ads for a D'Angelico.

Fetched £770 and no, I didn't bid for it.

That's a steal, if legit.
