 Awww...

What a nice man...

 "I...just want to find someone who can use and love them like the previous owner did"

    "Some slight rust"

    Not sure slight is the correct word there...

    @HarrySeven ; - they remind me of working in the store with my granddad in the mid 70's as a Saturday lad when I was 14/15

    They've been loved by the previous owner (who kept them in a fish tank) and refurbished by an electirical enginner.

    He will get that ad taken down by ebay... you can't advertise three things on one advert, and only be selling one of them unless you set it up that way.

    Frankly, £300 for an Overdriver is about right - if slightly low if it was mint... that isn't, so I think he may be lucky on that one if somone is desperate for one. The other two are 'rare', but thats because they were... of their time. And a collector is only going to be interested in one that hasn't been stored in a garden. Those are not in good cosmetic condition and therefore are of limited interest to a collector - and so a player may be interested in taking one on to give them something 'different'... but frankly, they are not going to spend big money to do so.

    Hey, hey. My, my. More rust than Neil Young & Crazy Horse.
    You say, atom bomb. I say, tin of corned beef.

    They certainly are 'rare in this condition'.

    The vast majority of them are nowhere near that bad.

    "Been checked by a reputable electircal enginner who confirmed the pedals were marked as made in 1974"
    As an electrical engineer I wish that people paid me to confirm the date markings on things!
    Always be yourself! Unless you can be Batman, in which case always be Batman.
    My boss told me "dress for the job you want, not the job you have"... now I'm sat in a disciplinary meeting dressed as Batman.

    That's because you're not an electrical ENGINNER...

    I'd rather he confirmed they work.
