Title: Oops, won a SAK on eBay!
Post by: zrxoa1 on September 26, 2018, 10:47:05 PM
Didn’t think I’d win. Was waiting on someone to snipe me at last second but it never happened.

Swiss Bianco Pioneer X. Black. Something about number 1/100.

Guess I’ll get it in my hands Monday!

Quite a lot of winning bids are from new bidders in the last few seconds of an auction.
congrats on your win.

Thinking of getting a Hitch n Timber slip for it.  Thought about trying to make my own, but I don’t have any leather to use.

Thought, at work when bored, of making one out of duct tape and cardboard. LOL

I really thought I’d get Bidnapped at the last second. I used to use Bidnapper years ago. Came in handy, but don’t use it anymore.

Ah well, nice to have a toy in the mail again. Haha!!  Reason I have several of my cheaper Wengers... liked the thought of having something on the way to me!!  I think it’s a sickness. LOL

Will be here Monday!!

Pretty cool, well done!

 :tu: :tu:

Don't mean to rain on your parade, but sometimes the 1/100 numbering just means it's one of one hundred made, not number one in only one hundred made. Still, even if this is the case, it's still a pretty nice SAK.

 :salute: :cheers:

Oh I am not concerned with the 1/100 thing. From what I can see it’s not numbered anyway. That was just some of the advertising the seller copied from Swiss Bianco’s eBay add.

I am not sorry I won the auction, but I really didn’t intend to win. It will look nice in my collection. LOL

Nice surprise.  I havent been very active buying from the bay of fleas in a while.  I was always surprised when I put in my max and let it ride and won.  Good on you and lovely SAK  :like:

99 cents... :rofl:
That’s great! Who doesn’t like to get a bargain. Personally I love eBay. Out of 162 buys, I have had only 1 problem and it was resolved. Have 2 SAK inbound from them now.  :tu:

Ok update:

The SAK arrived today. Perfect condition. Not a scratch. I’m not going to take and post a bunch of pics. You all know what a Pioneer X looks like. This one differs only because it has black scales, no keyring nub and says Swiss Bianco on the blade.

Not bad for $50!!

Now it goes in the case with my other shelf queens.  For now...

Shelf queens for now.

I’ll probably never use the ‘67 or the Black Pioneer with red shield.

The other two, yeah I’ll end up using them at some point.
