Just noticed a crack developing on one of the shoulders. It could be patched or left as is. Anyways, I'm dropping the price to $100 shipped to CONUS or CANADA. I will also ship to other countries, but please send me a PM for quote. Still open to offers.

I'm clearing out some of my stuff before moving, so it needs to go soon.
