Crashn: Yeah, you’d think that might be a giveaway as to its actual value. And for $1,000 you’d think he could throw in free shipping! -- Charlie M. "Woodworking - patience = firewood" |

Charlie, he’s practically giving the plane away at $1000, so he’s got to make a profit on it SOMEHOW. -- ㊍ When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route. |

The real funny part is, it says mint condition, and it is out-of-the-box but it also says condition used in the description -- Drew -- "I cut it twice and it's still too short!"- Rock-n H Woodshop - Moore, OK |

I offered him a whole 13.00 dollars..lol….20$ on shipping is a little extreme since that can fit into a flat rate box. When I ebay stuff I typically charge 12$ but I have been getting stung on postage rates lately. |
