Have you seen this advert? Nothing to do with me, but saw it and remembered you were after Sperator.

Thanks Martin.

I'll approach the seller, although the fact its been listed as "super rare" is a concern when it comes to one's expectation of price!!
I know that when these are availabe that I can get them for around £15-£20 a piece it's just waiting for them to be availabe.
Only seen once in 4 -5 years.

fwiw, i bought one, same 4", in Hartford, CT, for $10. in one year it only put on a couple of inches. indeed, saw it only once in all my LFS endeavors along the US east coast.

Well, there was no need for boasting!

Joking... How big are they at Michael's? But you could nudge our legendary Mr. Bryce, if you know him that well, to add to this thread, if there is anything he wills to share.
