Mini Axes

This is a tiny Craftsman that I got new in 1956.

Gee what did it cost back then?

Bearhunter and anyone who wants to chime in. I bought the GB mini at the advertised price and to me it's not worth $100 more. Yes, I knew they had made a mistake on their price. The mini has not been used, hubby prefers his hudson bay, should I sent it back? Or how should I make it right or should I?

Something tells me that something is telling you something...

Go with your gut. My gut always errs to the extreme of honesty. I've never regretted following it even when my greedy side tells me otherwise. It doesn't even have to be a matter of right or wrong.

I have a mini wetterlings, maybe 1lb or so and can't find a handle for it... Anyone know who may have some for sell?

Molly Hatchet's quandary:
But really, if Molly bought the GB at an advertised price, should she be feeling guilty?
How many of us would pause to instruct a junk dealer before buying a $100 axe head for $1?

I was only 9 and don't remember. I'm sure it was only a dollar or two 'cause my folks weren't into spending on non-essentials. I do remember chopping sticks with it; kinda like making kindling.

I don't think she should feel guilty. I think she should follow her gut. That way you can be true to your real ideals rather than mistakenly being true to something you actually do not approve of, like greed. I don't think she's in the wrong.

Bearhunter, my hubby thinks someone missed a key when pricing the G. B. mini. An unintentional mistake. Knowing I like a deal, he made it right by sending 100 dollars to the dealer this week, then he told me he did this. He looks out for me.
