I just lost an auction for the prettiest old harmonica.

Don't suppose it was one of you?

I wouldn't buy something that looked like that.

How much did it go for Narc-man,
my Guess is the bids were low,Bidders didn't want to spend that much money for it then some cheapo outbids you by $1 WHAT A PISSER!!!!!
Bro if i wanted to win that Harp or microphone my game Plan is i bid big in the last few seconds of the auction,
Bro that Harp i would have bid $100 the worst thing that happens i is get out bid,
or i win the Harp for $1 more than the Highest bidder wich possibly can be as low as $10 or $50,
check my Youtube page to see some Green Bullets i won cheaply at username nastyolddog:)

Everyone bids in the last few seconds, you need a snipe account, so it's a fair game. Then you don't have to worry about waiting for the end of the auction.
I set it up to start bidding with four seconds left on the auction, and if my max bid is high enough, I win!

It went for $67 dollars. I knew I was in trouble when the bids started going up when I wasn't bidding. It had more than one other person after it. When I started following it I told myself I'd get out at $20. Then I told myself I'd get out at $40. Then I thought of how nice it would be to have one really nice tremolo. I looked everywhere on line and I couldn't find another harp like this. The problem is, I have money set aside for a big purchase, and it's a luxury purchase (a new computer). It's a dangerous time for me to be looking on eBay. I really do love art deco style harps though. I'll get one one day.

Does anyone have any idea what is up with the holes on it? I wonder if maybe it was one of the trumpet styles at one point?
Buddha, just for future reference, do you/could you make custom combs for tremolo style harps? The other pics of this showed some pretty heavy wear on the front of the wood.

probably. I would have to see one first and then do the drawing. ---------- "The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are." - Joseph Campbell

Y'all shouldn't be giving away the secrets while here are still some people who don't know how to bid.
