Any thoughts on this and it's authenticity ?

Curious as to how to go about authenticating the extra bell .
I have asked for more pics but no response as yet .

without more pictures, and a written guarantee of authenticity, I would advise keeping your money in your pocket.

I tried to post this earlier--pardon if duplicate...
25c: red flag
color: not correct, red flag
casting looks rough even with bad resolution: red flag
why take a chance? I'd say repro unless I could see it in person and be proven otherwise.

This machine is no way original. Casting is bad, escalator is not right and the base of the cabinet and sides show as being new wood and not restored cabinet. I wouldnt buy this machine for 500$ and matter of fact, dont think I would take it if they even gave it to me. Dont even want to make a buck of a "peice OS" like this.

This machine has REPRO written all over it. All the RED flags above, and more.
Don't bother with more pix. They will be as fuzzy, (no doubt on purpose), as
the two on the site. Also 1 feedback, and joined in July 2007. "No Way Jose"!
Save your money for something original. They are out there from time to time.
