after looking at the cross carfully it has been glued or somethig and is loose on all sides excpt for one, the iron center is movable, it is original but is in worn shape and I would accpct it but for the loose rim, I think 175 is too much for a cross with a loose rim, what do you guys think? the seller did not tell me and I am sure it was known,

Hello Migileto,

I agree. $175. is too much for an EKI in that condition. It looks like the rusting core probably split the seams, and someone did a sloppy job trying to repair it. The seller should have made this fact known, or at least provided clear pictures to show the condition of the piece. Here is a Klein & Quenzer EKI in nice condition.
Best regards! Tom
