The box is in great condition. It still has the original red paint and, hard to see, but a picture of a lady imprinted on the front side.

The sides are dovetailed and still make a strong connection.

The thing about Offers and Counter offers.

In case you are thinking about making an offer on this piece please consider this:

Like in most antique stores I can sometimes go to about 10% in giving discounts on items that linger longer on Ebay.

My position as dealer is very compatible I have to keep my prices low as possible. There is not that much room for negotiation.

I list hundreds of items every month. Most of them sell pretty quick usually within a 3 month period. But, I don't know if it will sell.

I often have the “make offer” button placed in the listings, so I do not have to go back every time a listing lingers longer on eBay than usual. It simply is too much work to have to reverse those items.

If I can't honor your offer, please think about this and don't be offended. Just try again, keeping this in mind.
