Purchase Too Good to be True

[Misouri Wayne]

Went to an auction of a woodworking shop last weekend. Professional woodworker had died and wife was auctioning all the equipment. Set around for four hours waiting for my main interest, a Hegner Multimax 22V saw. Made in 1995 but looks like new.
Auctioneer started at $200 and had no takers. None at $100. When he dropped to $50 I figured I had better start the ball rolling. When he asked for more bids there were none and hammered it down at $50. On top of this there were blades along with it. Got home and counted almost 40 dozen blades.

Have set everything up and it is running just fine in my shop. I guess clean living pays off some times. Not buying lotto tickets this month because I assume my good luck for the near future has probably been used up. Can't wait to get some projects started!

I would call that a Fantastic buy . That is a $1600+ scroll saw new. You are probably right about using your good luck for awhile.

OMG! that was almost a steal! And all those blades to boot. You won't have to buy any for a long time. Best wishes on the new to you saw.. Fay

I love auctions!

[ray hampton]

Fay seem to be reading my mind again, the blades cost more than a fifty , the saw cost nothing

[NRscroller]

What a deal

You are one lucky man. The good Lord was watching over you that day. Sounds like something I did recently. Went to a church garage sale and got a professional kitchen aid mixer for twenty dollars.
