Anyone we know?

Re: [newmellotrongroup] Anyone we know?

It's actually a Mellotron, Vance, not a person...
I noticed the seller says it's been in his/her studio in the Czech republic for ten years which I find odd because the seller is located in the Netherlands.
So I wrote to ask what color it is.
I won't be going to pick it up because the post says it ships to the United States but it's for local pickup. Since I live in the United States and I have a truck with room for it, I'd like to pick it up. However I can't figure out how to drive to the Netherlands or the Czech Republic from Northern Virginia even though it was my intention if I bought it to use a "great circle" route to get there quick and save a bit on gas.
Mapquest sucks!
I am anxiously awaiting a reply to my question before I place my first bid.

Leiden and Czech Republic are just down the road from each other as we measure it.
