I'm not sure why one on ebay would be more likely to not have a scraper.
Just make sure you get one that's not broken and you should be OK.
My Bauer is really nice and works great, and I got it on ebay.
But the big question is, IS THAT REALLY YOU IN THE PICTURE?
Wow!

It also has a emulsion side scraper that is attached so that one is always there. Here is one on ebay that does have the extra scraper.Quote:

i'm a little worried to buy one from ebay (which is where I usually look for stuff) because of what you said about ebay one's often not coming with a scraper or something. I work with 16mm film and have actually recovered some of my grandma's reg. 8 film, so i'm looking for one that will do all 3 if possible. I found no bolex or LPL one's on ebay. I found this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...&category=4790
but don't know if that would be good.
thanks,
noah
p.s.- what is a hot splicer used for?

The LPL is a great value since you can pick em up for $15 or less. The Bolex is a little better but they go for $50 or more.
