Amazing ad and price on eBay
« on: August 22, 2011, 09:37:38 AM »
Item 290401103453  "Antique Old Fuller Made in Japan Pliers Tool 6.5" Long "

I guess if they were rusty they would be "primitive" as well as antique.  $5.95 shipping, starting bid is $10.

Don't know whether to laugh or groan.

From the 70s or 80s. "Antique", huh?

Hell, that makes me the product of an archaeological dig by college interns discovering the promise of uncompensated labor. 

Now folks can listen to me creak discuss if I have oxidation or patina.

I'm from the '60s. Guess that makes me ancient?

I know I am antique- born in 1942!

By the way- the State of Texas recognizes my 1978 BMW motorcycle as an antique.

Maybe not me, but Lauver, who lives in Belton, Texas!

Sure did travel well. Seller is in Ontario, Canada.
