So what did you buy today

[dangerousatom]

Scored a 20" Shugihara off eBay for $48 shipped

£25 / $33.

Until I did that calculation I didn't realise how much the pound has strengthened against the dollar. The rate is now £1 = $1.33

The daily fluctuations are insane

Got this old lantern awhile ago for $10 and forgot about it until today going through some stuff. Also pulled out a Colman lantern I got cheap and give it a dust off.


Australian made 1962

I was caught up in the lantern bug for several years. I don't collect them anymore but still have several. These two were the last ones I bought about five years ago.

Yeah I don't collect them my pockets ain't that deep lol.. Some the old Coleman lanterns go for many thousands.
I just pick em up here and there when I see em for cheap over the years and sell em.
I do appreciate and admire how well the old lanterns were made and made to last forever not like the throwaway rubbish we have now days.

This 282 Coleman I picked up for about $8 if I'm reading the date code right was made in 1990.

Picked this up today. I drove it home and realized it didn’t have brakes when I went to turn into the driveway. 210k, one owner, one confirmed deer kill. They had an appointment to get the brakes fixed. The garage said the light on the dash was nothing to worry about. The deer hit probably saved her from a more serious accident. I’m guessing the remaining fluid leaked out in the three weeks it was parked.
