A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Update for you. Well the original eBay buyer never got round to collecting the dish, rather a long haul from Portsmouth to Derbyshire so the sale 'Auto closed - auto relisted' after 4 weeks. I immediately got a new offer but before I could reply they bought it anyway at full price. A cockney with a van has just collected it and its now on its way back to the smoke, all within 2 days. Its been bought by Marvel films (or their film maker) and is being used in a military scene in Venom 3 with Tom Hardy. Out next November apparently. Cheaper to buy this, collect it and then scrap it than making a plywood mock up or commissioning CGI. It seems as soon as a scene is in the can a specialist 'clearance' contractor moves in and takes everything away so it will no doubt go for scrap.
Just make sure you leave negative feedback for the original timewaster, it may assist in stopping them from messing others about.

Thanks for the update and very interesting on its use and what will be its subsequent demise. We'll look out for it !
