In my continuing quest...

Bill Houghton, Sebastopol, CA

>Good news first: I've lost eighteen pounds since mid-December.

Bad news: I keep getting skunked on the 'Bay. The Record 2506 I was watching went for very close to the price at which matched, pretty well pristine pairs of Stanley 98/99s have gone ($130+). On balance, I'd rather have the 98/99 combo, I think.

I can probably only get one at a time. I know I need both, just like I need two shoes, but between the two, which would you recommend first for a left-handed user?

>I'd have to say start with the 99. Also you can reverse it and pull it towards you if need be.
