What a knife & What a story

Post by knifegnome »

Anyone want to go in halves with me on this sword , I was willing to $500,000 just for the knife ,but with a story like that I am willing to go the whole $790,00. And most of the profit will go to charity. Whose in with me?https://www.ebay.com/itm/RLK-LRK-Sword- ... SwM6NZsfYO

It takes a special kind of person to buy an item, and a story, like that on eBay.

(Come to think of it, it takes the same kind to sell one on eBay too!) ::facepalm::

Can’t believe the seller says “if you like I’ll see about getting you a tax receipt”. ::skeptic:: I can hear it now: “well I tried. Sorry.” :lol:

You know guys. I hate eBay, its meets the masses to keep moving. This type of post woke me up....Fees and service suck Ass Zzz. There are some many ways to do business without the fees, and total incompetence of a transaction when there is an issue is real, After 20 years of eBay nonsense it was time after reading this post and Knowing Ebays response.

I am no longer a member... wow to think about what I lost with 20 years positive feedback, at 500 plus.. I lost nothing.

So free from this s... I am cerebrating tonight.. I just got divorced from the devil

While you're at it, pick up these recommended relics too, they're practically free compared to the sword price. ::facepalm::

I was going take up your kind and generous offer to split the price with you, but the tip of the blade just doesn't look quite right. ::rotflol::

I have exactly the same sword , I've had it since the 80's , I picked it up at a market while with my Aunty Jean, she is the reason I've always collected knives and old stuff, in about 1995 I let them put it behind there bar they had in there house , well my aunty passed away 10yrs ago and then my uncle 7yrs ago , I asked my cousin if I could have the svord back , well these are made in India, there a dress type sword and not worth a lot , mine sadly has no scabbard so lives down the side of my wardrobe these days , but after seeing that ebay listing I'm thinking about snapping the blade in half and adding a cool story :lol:

Knife stories like this should begin with the words "once upon a time".

How much blood and guts was on your sword when you bought it, Paul? From the eBay seller, the body count apparently increases the value of these swords. 🤭

There is one problem if we buy this sword , someone will most definitely try to kill us.
