A few people have been saying they'd like a drum carder... well there's one just been announced on Ravelry (http://www.ravelry.com/people/fibreclaireUK/stash/louet-junior), a Louet Junior.
It's in Powys.
It's 5 years old and the ad says very lightly used, it looks in very good condition from the pics.
These are £250 new (P&M Woolcraft); the seller and her Ravelling friend don't know what to ask for it. I've never seen one for less than £170, and that was for a very well-used, one might almost say beat-up, one. So somewhere around £200-£210, I guess.
The Junior is a narrow drum carder, the batts it produces are 4" wide. I have one and a friend of mine has one, and both of us don't feel the need to upgrade to a wider item. (Mine fits on my windowsill, so I'd have to give up table space to a wider one!)

Now being offered at £200 (http://www.ravelry.com/discuss/uk-spinners/1295775/6451-6475#6453) including UK postage
and she's open to offers, she says. I almost considered replacing mine! :D
