Very "rare" Record 044

[Mirboo]

Check out this "interesting" listing on Trade Me. :roll: I can only imagine the kind of spiel this person could concoct if they were selling something that really was rare.

For those of you who don't know, Trade Me is kind of like eBay for New Zealanders. NZ$450 is roughly equal to £160.

I'm impressed that the lanolin hasn't softened the writing on the blades...

Must be all the sheep.

I've got half a pack (6) of very rare veneer-faced woodchip-substrate flooring boards. They feature the original (this is another very rare feature) tongue and groove edges and are still housed in the original 'Focus' (a Victorian fine craftsman's guild) packaging, complete with torn plastic over the top.
I haven't seen anything like these since last time I went there, so I reckon these must be worth at least £100 a board. Any takers?
No lanolin involved anywhere. Possibly some baby dribble though.

:wink:

I'm just off down m'shed. Must be worth a fortune...

What am I saying - it cost me a fortune!

Being serious this one is rare I wonder what it will make?

 

[Scrit]

Rare it might be, but I've always found the Stanley type to be a bit inferior to Record's models

£110. Is that over the odds?

Not really #94s aren't what you'd call common
