It might be nice under all that filth.  Difficult to tell.

I think I saw this being used by Alan Titchmarsh...

Seller sounds a bit of an arse too. But hey it’s an investment opportunity 🙄

[prowla]

Some rubber gloves, & disinfectant should sort it...

Only a bit of an derrière ?

I assume he doesn’t know it’s already been butchered

Like most sellers on eBay feigning ignorance I should think he knows bloody well!

[Reggaebass]

It would be worth a cheeky offer as a project

That has been hacked about quite a bit. “Investment” - LOL. Frets look rather flat too, I wonder how much meat is left?

The sellers attitude indicates buying that won’t work out well.

I should have gone for the mint condition one at £1700 a few days back

Seller sounds very full of themselves. I wouldn’t pay anywhere near what they are asking. It appears to be one of those with the bad quality finish and is peeling. It has been stored in silage.

[Hellzero]

I would have thought stored in manure...

Boil it up for a few hours, I'm sure it'll come out just fine.

I've got a Baby Burco I can lend to anyone who fancies doing so...

The line:

"The new owner needs to know what this is and how to deal with it"

Makes it sound like he's trying to rehome a pet komodo dragon.
