Just Arrived!

A few days ago, two Tibetan travelers approached my father and asked if he
would buy their two short Tibetan Swords.

They told him that they had escaped from Tibet and needed the money to
get to Dharmsal to join the rest of their family.

My father thought it over and purchased the swords. Both Tibetans were
very happy and are now on their way to Dharmsal and their families. My
father sent the swords to me already, so they both are available for immediate purchase.

This is a true story that I thought all of you would enjoy. Commonly, people
moving on, stop by my father's place and offer a family treasure, like these
two Tibetan Swords, so they can buy food or get to their new destination.
He always helps them if he can.

This is a Win-Win situation and a very good karma deal for two of you. If you
want to add these two swords to your collection, this is your only opportunity

Those are pretty spiffy; I'll bet they were heirlooms. They must have been really painful for those folks to part with.
 
Thank you all for giving a nice home for Tibetan Swords.:thumbup:
