My trusty Jessops 327 tripod is up for sale as I stuck in a silly low bid on a Manfrotto and won it...
So this will go for a silly low price.
Tripod has been used, and is functionally perfect. All legs extend and contract and lock, all the adjusters move smoothly and lock solid. All adjustments are fluid damped so movements are silky smooth. The centre column is air damped. The camera mounts on a 3 way pan/tilt head with two spirit levels and... Wait a minute, its one of these...

The one change I'va had to make was to replace the lateral portrait/landscape 30/60/90 deg adjustment pivot to a bolt, for my peace of mind. It takes my D300 with a heavy lens no problem, solid as you like, I use this a lot for long exposure shots.
Was £55, yours for £25.
