That is Ed Stregge of Badger State Repair. He is a good guy, but he loves his buffer and he charges a lot.

I think the question is, how much would a new bell cost if you ordered one from Miraphone?

I don't know that answer, but otherwise, no, it doesn't seem like a good deal.

It's really pretty but $3K (including shipping) is a lot of money.

Yeah, bad attempt at a joke. People have been putting L@@K in their titles since the early days and it never doesn't look stupid.
