This is what $8 buys...

$8
And it's mint...

 

How'd you manage to pull that one off?

 

um you gonna let us in on the story? Find it in a antique store that had no clue??

 

Beautiful!

 

Very nice! So what did you do? Use the $8 to buy a knife and then use the knife to rob the guy who owned it??

 

Right place, right time, right antique store.

I was looking for a nice scuttle or mug, but came across this instead. There was NOTHING else in the store that was shave related except this guy.

 

woohoo I guess it! Do I win anything? hehehe

 

In the world of fountain pens, you're a Sumgai:

I might hate you :ashamed001 (but I don't).

Congratulations! That's one sweet find. You'll always have this impossible-to-resist urge to "just have a quick look" at every antique store you pass...


Cheers,
Tom

 

Yeah, but you just missed the NOS 195 that sold for $5!


Seriously though, THAT is an amazing find. Congrats!

 

Thank you. I'm extremely fortunate with this find. But if I do find a 195 for $5, my next stop will be to buy a lottery ticket.

 

I think you are ready for that lottery ticket right NOW.

 

Wow, what a great haul!

 

Nice find... Gotta love lady luck..and i should know work in a Casino

Fuzzy

 

Congrats on the find! And yes, run out and get a lottery ticket now!


Rodd is gonna flip his lid!

 

Is it gold or silver? Either way, nice score!

 

It's gold. There are no signs of wear or tarnish to be found, even inside the doors.

 

Wow! Congrats! I am lucky to find a cracked handled old style with bent up teeth. And that is usually on sale for $25

 

What's the date code, F-4?

Very nice!

 

Great find!!! I love hearing about scores like that!

 

Oh, it's just the GOLD version....

I'm a little less impressed now.


NOT!!

:rofl Stop it, you're killing me! And stay outta MY antique stores!
