Another RE-rolled and welded Flat can. Look at the seam. Top and bottom are new & DO NOT match the can.

IF more buyer would go back to using home computers w/ real monitors for buying online, they could see the details some sellers Fail/Don't mention [I have a 28" Monitor].
MOST of the Goofy Buys on ebay are from Buyers using Hand Held Devices.

Seller describes the can as, "Can is in excellent condition".

Yes a re-roll, but can came out nice otherwise.

Looking at his other auctions, he has some pretty neat stuff. Seller may not be aware it has been re-rolled. I had never heard of this until this thread, but I'm not much of an oil can guy. Has anyone messaged the seller to ask/inform him of the issue?

Thanks for posting. Seen that can first thing when it appeared. Can should have an AF top embossed. Bottom is the wrong style. Can is a re-rolled for sure which sucks. If it was wasn't for the rediculous price I would bid. Heck paid 125 for a nicer can a week ago.

Only issue was it had no top. Stuff on the rim was just scotch tape.

OK, Was a 10 Day run, now a 7 Day run.

Who ever did the re-lidding, their machine is out of adjustment.

This is an EXAMPLE of the style of top and bottom but it's arctic special.
