    I was looking on ebay for a lathe as well. Big $$ for a decent one.
    But… It’s the old supply and demand thing. Buy it now’s on ebay are crazy sometimes resulting in a seller not selling.
    But legit bids ? It’s the real world ! I guess this hobby/biz we’re into is resulting in more demand than supply has.
    BTW… Bob… Just rec’d an 1896 Waltham 17 jewel Riverside size 18 on ebay. Winning bid $52. I’m happy !
    Theoriginalwatchlady sent it in a cool plastic movement holder. It can’t rattle and is sealed, mostly, from dust.
    I emailed her asking where they might be gotten. Will post if + results. Does anyone know where these can be bought ?
