To good to be true?

Here is a current, July 3 rd, 2020 Craigslist ad for a Schrade Walden 2OT for $10.00.
Kind of hard to believe. If I was local to Tukwila WA. I’d take a look, being 150 miles south, not a good idea. If someone in the Seattle area is interested give it a shot. It’s either a fake or the seller doesn’t know what it is.

Visiting in Seattle right now. Tried to find the listing but it must be sold. Too bad.

I just looked, it’s still there.

I looked it up last night and it says the person who listed it had removed it.
I would have driven to Tukwila for a 2OT and paid a much fairer price than $10!

Bargain of a lifetime. Gotta get those while they're hot. (said Captain Obvious)

Dale, I sure thought about driving up there, probably should have. I think Doglegg is going to get it. He’s up there visiting. Maybe he’ll post a photo.

Guy hasn't texted back his address yet so still waiting. He may have a couple of other knives listed and we said we would be interested in those too. Hope he is just busy with 4th stuff is why he hasn't responded again. I will let you know.

[doglegg]

It appears that someone contacted the seller and offered him substantially more for the knife and he sold it to them. Good for him that he got closer to it's value. He also has a 125OT that we are going to look at. Sorry Bert that we missed it but thanks for the heads-up.

[Bert]

Doglegg, thanks for letting me know, yeah someone up there must have seen that , lucky for them. I saw his 125OT listing. He has it up for $20. Makes sense it’s twice as big as the 2OT, hahhaha
have a good rest of your trip.

Hey Bert, I met with the guy and bought the 125OT for $20. It is in very used shape. He said that someone from NY contracted him about the 2OT and was told someone was coming today to look at it. The guy from NY offered him $100 and would pay shipping so he agreed. Fellow knew nothing about knives. Was cleaning up after an estate sale. And trying to turn an extra buck. No ill will on my part. Hope it was someone on the forum who got it. I'll post a pic of the 125OT when I get back home. Thanks again Bert.

Thanks, sorry you missed out. I would imagine someone on here purchased it, lot of people visit AAPK, what a great place . 125OT sounds good, that’s a great price, didn’t miss out entirely.
