Bit of a deal
on: December 18, 2017, 09:55:39 PM
Picked up a " Big Victorinox Knife in Case" on auction site

I think it would have got more bids if it had said "Big Victorinox SwissChamp XL in Case"

Happy Christmas to me :)

Great score!  I've had a couple of those instances myself, where a generic title or some other listing mistake allowed me to get a steal.
