Must be nice my wife throws a fit even when I trade for materials. If I tried to get that slab saw I'd be in front of a judge saying " why yes your honor she gets everything" lol

Lets see if I can buy this one for a penny + shipping.
Off topic: I collect local 100 year old picture and advertising postcards. Recently bought one for $0.42 with free shipping. Will cost the seller more to mail it than I paid for it.

There are deals to be had if you have the time to look for them. Or if you are there at the right time. I reckon I spend a couple hours in the course of a day doing eBay searches. I bought a 15 lb tumbler barrel (barrel only) a couple days ago for $45 with free shipping. Due here tomorrow. www.ebay.com/itm/15lb-tumbler-barrel/323069692014?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649Not like I needed it, but a new one is twice that not counting shipping (Rock Shed price) Figure it's gonna cost the seller most of what I paid just to ship it Priority Mail.

On the other hand, there are also sellers taking advantage of people who don't know better. Used tumblers with a starting bid or BIN over the cost of new. Grit at $10/lb.
Some of the prices people ask (and PAY!) for the types of things I collect are often 2 or 3 times the "market value". People think that just because something is 100 years old, it's worth a small fortune.
