Thanks for the heads up about Ebay.  I usually search Rohr and Rorh, but today I found a "Rourhbaugh" box for $18.  He had to relist it a second time because he had no takers.

You found a Rohrbaugh box on E-bay, the same e-bay I check 2-3 times a day, that had to be resisted? RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!

Nice find. He obviously didn't know what he had.

The one I bought was for sale since July 27.  I shared an auction search tip up above, but I'll spell it out more clearly at my expense for the good of the forum.  Rohrbaugh seems tough to spell for some, so I search for Rohrbaugh, Rorhbaugh, Robar, Rohbraugh, etc.  Currently there is a "Rohrorhbaugh" on Gunbroker.  A few years ago, I was the high bidder at $0.26 on a no reserve R9 for a "Rorbough" that somehow ended before I could complete the deal. My point is that when searching auctions, mix up the spelling to try to find a great deal.  Being the only bidder on a low starting price auction is really the way to go.

I was told by the guy selling the Rohrbaugh boxes that he bought them ( about 10 ) from a friend in the Army who was cleaning out an old supply closet on base. I guess the Army bought some Rohrbaughs too! Eric? Do you remember?

So I just bought stolen federal property?

There were some "dealings" both here and "abroad", but with whom ~ I can say nothing more.
