I purchased these new, the first day they were released, and received the original serial number 6 on all three as requested. They are brand new in box opened only for inspection and to verify the serial number. The three colors are black, a dark maroon and a dark grey. Fantastic items and doubt if very many, if any, of these originals, with matching numbers exist. Allow $20 for shipping of all three carefully packed in a large box surrounded with foam.
