Wow! Was that the one sitting in the $200s for a while? I didn't expect such a late jump in price; I figured the prices had just come down a bit.
Congrats to the winner

Well I certainly hope I find one at a thrift store or flea mkt. That seems like the only way I'll ever own one. I don't think I really need one though....

Yes and on these rarer ones, more often than not, they are getting bid up severely in the last 5 minutes. I have seen them more than easily double in the last 30 seconds. People save their ammo for the end.
I'm really surprised by the price being so low. I remember 3 years ago when I got my regular Toggle (found it in a junk shop for $1.50) the going price for a uncased one was around $400-$500. I think the rarer nickel ones were much higher.
Dang! I thought I hit the jackpot finding one (F4) for $45 last year!! I can't imagine $1.50. Did you try to talk him down at least?!?
It was actually $1.56...stupid sales tax
Battle of the snipe tools.
Being in the right place at the right time can also be helpful.....
wow
I can't believe that you didn't try and get it for $1.00.It was actually $1.56...stupid sales tax
I hope that it was you who was in the right place....Being in the right place at the right time can also be helpful.....
Certainly was, Bob 
To be honest, I couldn't quite believe my luck. That ...... and I snagged it on a Thursday evening, so had to wait until the next day for the seller to dispatch, then the weekend for it to arrive; there's always a bit of paranoia in the back of your mind that some bright spark will contact the seller, tell them what they have and your big bargain score is no more. I was much relieved once I had it in hand.

A healthier price. Not bad! No case either. Will probably need some restoration work too.
