Last week Triad was doing some den cleaning. He seemed to have some great deals on some quality items. He had a couple of blade holders for trade so I went for the gold one. Now these blade holders can fetch a premium price on the bay, and all Triad wanted was a 10-pack of Feathers, so we made the deal. He said he would even include a couple Israelli Reds to try! I had also expressed an interest tin the brush, but unfortunately, he wanted more in trade than I had to offer, so I passed on the brush.
I slipped a couple of local post cards in an envelope along with the blades & took it to the post office Saturday morning. Later on that day, I sent Triad a pm advising him I had mailed the blades, and thats when the unexpected began happening!
Here was his reply, Sweet thanks Frank, you interested in that brush Ill give it to you as a pif? Give you your choice between the parker or slim also?
Not wanting to turn down the proverbial Gift Horse, I accepted his generous offer for the Omega synthetic & the 1963 Slim.
When I checked yesterdays mail there was a priority box from Texas. I didnt even wait to go back to my office! I ripped open the box right there in the post office!
Go to the next post to see what was in the box
