Nose pins/bridge in bad shape

[nlp626]

Quite new here, so sorry if this type of question is answered elsewhere. I have seen a pair of polished Juliets that I am interested in and believe to be legit. However, the back of the nose bridge/pins look in a pretty bad way. Are these salvageable? Thanks in advance.

Probably salvageable, but would take some effort to repair properly. To me it looks like someone tried to use silicon gasket maker to replace the rubber nose bridge flex coupler. These look okay, but would need more photos to be sure.

Hopefully u can get a solid deal on them they look legit.

Thanks for coming back , image from the front. Slightly better than the back but still pretty banged up.

Agree, though asking a bit high £300/$375 IMO

Agreed. Wouldn't hurt to ask for $275 to 300 and bargain.

Considering I got a LNIB pair for 210€ including paypal g&s and shipping, to me this seems like a very steep price for a potentially wrecked pair.

The bridge has been ground and hacked... with damage to the bridge....id pass and find a good pair.

Offer $50 and strip it out for parts.

Thanks all, confirmed my suspicions, they are denying that there is anything wrong with them, so not budging on price. Mainly wanted them for the hammer-stems!
