My mom the jew
« on: September 27, 2008, 04:32:37 PM »
Okay, she's not really Jewish she's Bohemian, but whenever we go garage saleing I let her do the haggling. Today she got me a nearly brand new framing pouch set, cordura nylon with suspension rig for, are you ready? two bucks! I saw it on the rack and told her to try and get a deal on it for me but I couldn't believe it. It ended up costing me lunch too but it was worth it. ;)

A belt, with tool and nail pouches for carpentry. It has built in suspenders to take some of the weight off your back.



I was just bragging up on my mom. She once got a guitar from some guy. His brother in law owned it and after he died it sat in his closet for ten years. She haggled him down from 60 bucks to 40 dollars. It was a 1967 Gibson es 335. Just like BB Kings' guitar only wine red with gold hardware instead of black. I sent a letter to Gibson and they estimated the value at $1700.00. This was back in the early eighties. She's really good.

I have tool pouches of course but that one looks really good, having the suspenders on it.
Amen on your mom being a good trader...I am the worlds worst (like a lot of us are). Perhaps you can take her to the gun shops\Motorcycle shops in the future!

She doesn't like guns or motorcycles unfortunately.
