Hello Francis
Pitfalls too numerous for any of us to advise you, I think, on picking a web auction item.
Occasionally you will come across an ad which insists on personal collection only. Go for one of those. Usually the vendor has loved the sextant, and wants to tell the sextant’s life story.
Cheers
