Looking back through my memory I can come up with a few quick ones.
  How about a pristine full stuffed cabinetmakers chest of about the 1860's
for $75?
  Stanley #43 (no filletster bed which is why  left it) for $40?
  Early Millers Falls #5 sized plane in absolutely pristine, brand new shape
for $20? ( I already had a beater #5, what'd I need it for?)
  How about a pre-lateral Stanley #4 1/2 for 3 dollars? Actually, I bought
this and used it about a year when I got one with a lateral lever and gave
this first one to a neighbor. He never touched it, but left it in a 1/2 open
shed with a bad roof and it rusted to smithereens.
  Last night........ A Pexto 16" brace with Samson chuck in good shape, bid
too low
    yours, Scott
