#6I just received these Stotz and they are for sure odd. They are not only connected different but they
are also larger and heavier compared to standard Stotz. One possibility is that they are not even made
by A. Stotz but a different maker.
The weight of my standard Stotz is 376 gram, these cuffs are 457 gram.

No, I wouldn't have missed the auction as I saw it long before before your posting. As I'm specialized
in German and Finnish restraints, I monitor German eBay regularly.
As a matter of fact, I just hate these anonymous revelations of ongoing auctions as I don't consider them
fair. How happy would you be yourself if an auction you are planning to bid on suddenly got "official" ?
I'm just asking!
The reason to why the seller re-listed the auction was because I asked her for permission to bid outside
Germany. The seller was very friendly but she didn't manage to alter the listing in order to accept bids outside
Germany. Therefore, she had to re-list the auction.
As the seller didn't accept PayPal, there were no other bidders outside Germany than me. I'm kind of surprised
by the lack of competition as these cuffs are unique. They certainly look like Stotz but I'm not sure they are
as they differ from ordinary Stotz in so many details. It's a pity they are not stamped "Mühlenfeld"
