Just saw this one on ebay.fr item number 180229729527 Real beauty Idéale 80 leather saddle with Dural chassis. Out of my price league I'm afraid... See seller ships to US and Japan. Wonder how much this one'll go for. I've noticed this type of saddle is going for a third of the price in France than on ebay.com. They get bought by local ebayers for 150-200 euros , and immediately resold to US and Japanese collectors for an enormous profit on ebay.com. So this is a kind of experiment to see if this has anything to do with info, or foreign lingo, or lack of confidence in purchasing from non-English speaking buyers ? (Not that I know if the seller speaks English or not, just that his listing is in French). Or if you'd all care to step back and let me have it for 15 euros then I sell in to you for 1400 bucks ?
