This Edward III by Arms & Armor would normally interest me, but it is not in the cards this time around.

I was hoping no one would notice that. :) I suppose my chances of getting it are gone now, as others around here can likely outbid me easily. :)

Holy crap. I actually won it. :)
My wife's gonna kill me...

Chad, my friend... credit cards are much like swords and guns.
Never draw yours, unless you're ready to use it in earnest! :p
Well done, though! Assuming it is in good condition, that looks like a bargain!

Congratulations. And oh, I know the feeling about the wife and the killing thing. :lol:
I have been watching this, but just now thought to post it here:

Doug and Jonathan,
I'm pretty excited about getting it. It's been on my "If I win the lotto" list for a decade. :) Getting it so deeply discounted is the only way I could have afforded it. The sword is only about a year old and is supposed (key word) to be in "great condition" according to the seller.

Chad,
I have accidentally bought things in similar ways and so far with some well chosen words, flowers and a good try to not do it again I dare say my wife has forgiven me.
Congrats getting married. I have been married 4 years now and it is the best time of my life. We just had our first son (and child as well) last month. It makes life a bit more tricky but we are enjoying it.
Hope you enjoy your winning as well!

Randall,
Thanks! We hit our 3 year anniversary early in October. I made sure to tell my wife that I got it $400 cheaper than full price, which helped (she's a financial analyst by training so you gotta have your numbers in order :) ). I'll probably also try to clean the bookshelf off a little bit to help offset the cost, but I try to do that anytime I buy something. I don't usually have the finances to buy something without something else having to go.
Congrats on your first child also. We have two cats at the moment, but no kids. :)

Just kidding. Congrats Chad! I might have to stop by and play with it soon! :D Mine's almost done!!

Yes, I saw that. Congratulations, Chad!

Congrats. I didn't know you were this serious when you said you wanted that piece. More toys are a good thing.
There is an old business saying that I think applys equally well to marriage and these types of situations:
"Sometimes it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission"
:lol:

A&A's printed catalogue was one of the first sword catalogues I ever saw, before I even had my first 14.4 external modem to connect to that new-fangled "inter-net." :) I fell in love with that sword. I always assumed it was financially out of reach, though. It was a wish-list kind of sword: one you love but don't ever really expect to own.

If you go to eBay now and search for "rapier" and click on "highest price first", you will find a huge list of Czerny auction items. It is worth it just to save the images even if you're poor like me. :)
Head to the "Live Auctions" section of eBay and check out the Wilkinson Auctioneers auction. Lots 1-41 are some pretty decent examples of arms and armor. Hey Bill Goodwin! There's two Mortuarys!
