Remington Realistically . . .

Post by 1967redrider »

I'd say this knife is worth not more than $20, for parts. Am I missing something?

I realize eBay is designed for people to sell stuff and you are free to ask any price you want, but come on man! Not my knife and I do not purchase/bid on eBay.

Ebay is great theatre. It took me awhile to 'get' it, but I finally figured out to NOT try to educate sellers.

I only use it to follow knife trends and pricing. I've read far too much here about trying to reason with sellers.

I wouldn't even pay $20 if I really wanted it, them blades are goners. The seller may be fishing for suckers.

I thought I was being a bit generous at $20, but the seller is asking $125!!! ::censored::

Yeah a lot of people seem to think their knife is worth big bucks when it's really not, I see it all the time. It's also frustrating seeing one you want that is priced way high.

Seller says "It would make an excellent addition to any collection". What else do you need to know.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.
