**** did I over pay????

[Williebeeguy]

So found this beaut online and listed for $8. Idk it's pretty beefy. Lots of cool history being from Detroit. You think I over paid?

 

[Skinny_Blinky]

Yes you did. Four US dollars at most, beefy or not.

 

[Bill Bowman]

Maybe.

I won't tell you how much the anvil cost then

 

[isb cornbinder]

In this area, I would have happily paid more than $500 for the pair. If that did not work I would not be hesitant to go as high as a grand for the pair. 30 years ago, I paid over $400 for an anvil. I got it in an auction at Pacific IHC Trucks. I was offered $1000 for the anvil.
You made a very good deal.

I’m not one to ask how much something cost, but should we know?

There was a South Bend 9 inch lathe with a quick change gear box at the auction. The lathe was is such terrible condition. The bed looked like it was used as an anvil. Two guys got into a bidding war over the lathe. The lathe was finally hammered down by, the auctioneer, at $400.
One of the best auction deals I have made was $25 for a wood box full of Ingersoll T30 parts. The box contained a complete set of parts and included a complete rebuild kit. I assembled the compressor and it has been running reliably for a decade. The tank and controls were another deal.

That Fulton anvil/vise is older than my Prentiss anvil/vise
Nice score for a measly 8 bucks.

 

[Williebeeguy]

From what I could figure out it's circa 1890?

That sounds about right. I used to have a Fulton standard format bench vise. Traded it away.

 

[TMcCay]

You did great! Nice piece of history there that is still functional.

 

[gmcgeo]

Out of the goodnes of my heart I will give you 20 bucks for that wore out old thing as long as you include that wore out chunk of metal it is sitting on.

[Lassen Forge]

I see your 20 bucks and raise it to 10... and yeah, you ship...

 

[no704]

Does it fit in a flat rate USPS box?

If you think you over paid for those items, I have a part time job for you as my purchasing agent.
