S SES Member Joined: Sep 14, 2003 Posts: 992	S SES Posted posted on Sat, Dec 27, 2003 1:43 PM says 24" x 48" in the other section which makes more sense with the $50 ship fee

It's a 2 foot carving. Well, this is the bad end of the spectrum. People who have a very huge idea of what they have is worth. I prefer the other end where this comes up for $5.

I liked making US dollars when I could exchange them into plenty canuck bucks. However it is much handier on my trips to Detroit, a burrito no longer costs me 15 dollars.

Wait a couple of weeks and it might be free! (though somehow I doubt that...) Trader Woody
