I had my eye on the taps for a while, but I don't like that he's opened it and retaped.
I also wondered why I really wanted 10 taps, it just seemed a poor spend so I put it towards a new game instead.

OH that one again, I seem to recall it being up a while back. The 'crack' is not a crack its a big chunk missing, you can see in the photos. I reckon you could get that bit remade at almost any plastic fabricators, just a bit of folded polycarbonate with mount holes.

He says right in the auction that the opened box is just a sample, and that the one you will get is unopened.

I must've mis-read - I thought that was about the removed tap.

I'll send a message I think, maybe he's got a bunch.

i picked up a new japanese tap and found that i haven't had a use for it. i don't know what i would do with a whole case, but it would be a cool collectors item!
