.....and the Peterson family anxiously awaits his arrival !

I bought the "Baby Pete" ( 317 System Standard ) from the same guy a couple months back. Been scouting for a larger System for a while and I found it in one of my favorite shapes, the 305 ( I also have an Aran 05 ). Will post "on hand" pics upon arrival, which should be sometimes next week.

I saw that one! When I do wind up bidding on something I sometimes wonder if I'm going against someone here (I didn't go for this one). I hope you really enjoy it!

I have the system XL 315, which is a good sized bowl, not as large as one would think. It's one of my favorites!

Congrats. It's really exiting winning an Ebay auction but then the waiting just about kills you!

Thanks guys! This was a "buy now or best offer" deal, and the seller accepted my "best offer". I haven't picked up anything decent at a decent price on the 'Bay in a while in the "auction" format ..... had to let quite a few pass when the high bid got over what you'd buy it new in the box.

how you like the P-lip

All my other Petes have them. I like it better than a fishtail. To be honest, it's a deal breaker for me. If it's a Pete and it doesn't have the P-lip, I don't buy it.

Nice! The 305 is a cool shape i'd like to have in my system collection someday. Enjoy
