Question Is this a good deal???

http://roanoke.craigslist.org/atq/3283641733.html

I found this online, and was wondering if it would be worth the 2-2.5 hour drive.
Any info would be awesome!

It depends on how badly you want a red eye and the real condition of it and the cabinet. I'd ask for better pictures myself.

I'd say it looks like a good deal but the cabinet is shot and needs lots of tlc. I second the motion for more pics!

since it is so far away, asking for more pictures is entirely reasonable. Odd that they didn't get closer to begin with!

Go get it. I've seen cabinets that were a pile of sticks resurrected. This appears to all there. The decals look good.

I would be all over that. The cabinet can be easily refinished and it looks like all the irons are intact and in good shape. The center drawer likely just needs a bracket to hold that one side.

I would sooooo be on the way. For $25 you can't go wrong. Even if it turns out to be a pile of junk, you can part it out and get your money back.
