That's because loads were shipped to Oz for upgrades. hehe

They do come up for sale, now and again - though they are getting expensive over here now.

They do come up from time to time, I purchased a full set last year for £365 not sure the bloke knew the true value though as it was a breaker.

Got to get in quick when they appear.

Thanks for the replies lads, I saw the set @ 1200 quid and PMd the guy, but would not accept my offer...
Please keep me in mind and give me a shout if anybody spots a set or knows of a set coming up.

I've got a nice set of AP Radi-Cal 6 pots on order, for when they are released, should be September/October, so mine will be available then. :-)
