Looks to me like you're one lucky dude having the parts you need show up like that! Better grab them fast because this kind of thing does not happen very often!

That's a rarity to see those pop up. Better buy them!

That just shows you that this pump was meant to be in your collection. Brady

When I needed an extra face bezel for a Tokheim 34 I never found one and it took me 2 years to find a Tokheim 34 top. Now I have an extra.

Thank you Mike. I sent a message yesterday evening to see if they would sell out right. I have not heard back yet.

Kevin, I know. I sent a message last night about just buying them. I have not heard back yet. Think I should just go ahead and bid?

Matt it is. They have not gotten back with me yet. I would like to just buy them. If so I have a set of bezeles that I am going to buy from a member here and then it would be pretty much complete.

Brady, That is what I am hoping. I just wish they would get back with me so I could buy it now if possible.

I would wait and see if he responds, and if there is no response, I'd get set to put in a very high bid at the last second. Figure out the maximum amount you'd be willing to spend and enter it in the last 10 seconds. The ebay calculator will only take your bid high enough to be above the highest bid, or if you're too low, it means you weren't supposed to have them. Be sure to get the bezels from John right away, so they don't disappear on you!

Thanks Kevin. I was going to go see John yesterday and get the bezels. Have a sick little one and I was worried about the weather up north. John actually first told me about these on ebay yesterday evening. I texted him back after I missed his call about these. If I can't get up before I am going to meet him at his place before the show up there the beginning of March. I think I'm going to send another message to that guy on Ebay. They are out in California and I sent a message around 6:30 I think their time. John told me about them at around 8:30 and I logged on and emailed them shortly after that. I would have gotten back with someone way before now. I just hope it is legit.

I'm sure its legit, its just that everyone doesn't check their emails like you and I do. Give it time, I bet he will respond.

Wow that was close!! I got the clock faces!! The person emailed me back and said since there was a lot of response to these clock faces that she was going to put a Buy It Now up. Well I was away from the office getting ready to go into Staples. I got on my phone to try to purchase and it would not let me log into Ebay!! EEERRRGG!! So I got back into my truck and went back down to work. Luckily only a mile or so away. I got logged in on my computer and hit the Buy It Now!! $79.99 plus $10.00 shipping!! $89.99 out the door!! I'd say I was really lucky!!!! Thank you John for letting me know about these last might and Thank you everyone today for letting me know!!!!

WAY TO GO! It takes a little dedication sometimes, but worth it in the end! You're well on your way to completing that pump! Better learn how to post pictures right away, because we'll be looking for some!
