Anyone know how common the single box of 53 cutters are? I have one that's all wood with a hinged lid and a partial label with the 53 cutters. I've been waiting to find a $10 55 to go along with them. However if they get $1000 for these, mine are for sale!

>A set of 4 separate boxes is more common than the all in one box, but I haven't seen the packaging affect the value much. You might be able to get $100 out of them...

>If you read the notes at the bottom of the page in the question section she states that the price is set by her father. I don't think that he wants to sell it very bad. I can just hear "Dad, you have to get rid of these things!"

Just what I read into it though.

>I saw that one last night and just shook my head, laughed a little bit, and walked on. Ebay is usually good for one nice long laugh every day ;) Seems pretty simple to me to do a search of completed items and see what something might sell for. A very nice plane, but if it has the box, why not put it in the pic? I was going to go through and figure out what it's going to cost them just to post it, but decided not to waste my time <:(
