tidewaterfly 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2012 Well, what do you expect, "If you are a collector, this is the Holy Grail of vise sets."! I had heard they were a decent vise & tools, but had a lot of production problems with the machine shop(s)that were making them. Made in Annapolis, MD originally I believe. flytire, you should buy it, before someone else does! "I know all of you are salivating!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FrequentTyer 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2012 It all appears to be in beautiful condition. I really like AK's work and I'm sure the tools would be great quality, but the seller could have tossed in free shipping. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyfishing99 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2012 I take it you didn't read the whole listing......he says he is sorry about the price, but eBay won't let him delist it. He apparently put that price in error. So, I guess you could say you WERE being kidded. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AK Skim 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2012 KIDDING OR NOT... I have for sale all those AK Best items up for sale exclusively here on FTF to my good friends. I will start the bidding at $750.00 Oh, my attorney advised me to say that I don't have the vise, but I have everything else. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gene L 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2012 I saw a AK vise up for sale where I googled for $135. I also heard they had quality problems, which the Ebay guy mentioned. I don't think I'd take a chance on one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FrequentTyer 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2012 Even if his mistake was by a factor of 10, it's still overpriced. To you maybe. A collector might feel different. It looks like he has quite a few accesories included which are rarer than the vice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gene L 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2012 Are you a collector? If so, offer him $1200 and see if he jumps on it. If you aren't a collector, I don't think you are qualified to speak for them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
