That looks like my first Mobile, sure it had 2 batteries, one in phone and one on charge, big and bulky phone and chargers...How things change..... :D :D :D

In the early 80 I had a company mobile phone, was about the size of a briefcase with a 3 ft aerial on it as well...... :D :D :D

Remember an Offender worker I knew had one of these years ago Vamps, complained was poorly designed, as he didn't even have anywhere to put the sandwiches in  ;D

The seller is from Essex too. Sell rubbish?....Just look at the one who sold a single new penny some years ago for over a grand! That shows just how many idiots will bid just for the sake of winning. The pratt must have had proven he had more money than sense....probably a politician or a footballer maybe? :D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

A few years back I sold a dented (approx 1910) Wakefields Castrol hand oil can for £90. Buyer was in Oz
