Was out at a few sales with the GF over the weekend. We were both elbow deep in the tools and she grabbed this and put it down. I told her this was a goodie and we got it for a whopping 25 cents. Although she put it down I let her keep it as seeing her learning what is good to grab is priceless.

I can understand the part about wanting to sell them for a 10,000 percent profit; still it would be nice if we could find out more information about the item in question instead of watering are appetite with "hey girlfriend found them going on E-bay end of story"...

I don't know much about them so my post on detail of the item was a bit light.
Rivennhewn commented they will fetch a few $ on ebay and I responded with I hope so. That's the only reason I mentioned she listed them. Rescuing items and getting them out there so they can be appreciated again is fun and gratifying. Here is a link with a little info on lady legs.
