Doh!
Wish I'd known same other day when I was watchin some vacuum guages.
Sat at £14/16 for ages thought I may have a little bidding to do.
For a tussle at the end. Ended up changing my high bid twice!
Still got them narrowly beating at least one other Firestorm owner (e-bay name had Firestorm in it - big clue). From this forum or another I don't know, maybe neither.
Ended up payin £43 for them plus postage.
Still happy though cos they're BNIB and mercury filled ones - much better than the needle guage ones IMO. The needles ones tend to dance around too much. Think latest John Morgan ones use a stainlees rod in the tubes instead of mercury - not sure how good they are.
Should guy have been able to sell mecury filled ones on e-bay? probably not but Care I Not!
Good luck with the bidding and be prepared to go the extra few quid if you really want them.
