The difference between dry82 and double tricks is that the later are a bit hotter.
They difference between an eg59-85 and a 100 is negligible if any at all. Greco are notable for having lower spec models with higher specs and in terms of finish evem the nitro on higher models had a fair degree of plasticizers.
In general I love grecos and have several. If you find a good one, it's usually a fairly nice guitar.
To be very honest with you, having had a lot of high end ones, my favourite so far has been a mint collection 1984 eg59-50. Because it is a plaintop model the top is solid and the guitar just sounds wondeful, I prefer it over a couple of custom shop gibsons I also own.
Long story short, don't get hung up on specs.
I know I shouldn't get hung up on specs but............... if the 85/100 have veneer flame tops, it would make the one in question a lower spec than advertised as it has a plain top.
The photos aren't great either, so I can't be sure.
Cheers.
Also the control cavity is usually painted.

It's funny my 83 eg60-180 looked nothing like this, nor did my 1982 transition eg59-50.
Anyway good luck with the sale, it's a cool guitar, but you'd need better photos. It might be an eg59-50 with a bit of flame.
Cheers
Glad you like it, they are superb guitars

Scremin' pickup sound great to me, also you can always replace the pickup bar with an alnico III one (like a dry Z).
Enjoy it, they are great guitars.
