FYI: interesting Craigslist post

I'm not in the market for this, but I thought someone might find this
interesting.

Well, there ya go. As they often say on the Antiques Roadshow,
"sometimes the box is worth more than what came in it." :-)

The last #5 (not #5C) in good shape that I bought at a garage sale was
$5.00. It didn't have the box though.

You'd probably find one cheaper that that at a PATINA ( a tool
collectors group) meeting in the DC area.

By the way, my 5C is one of my more useful planes.

This is an excellent price. Good to very good, but used, 5C's of that era
are usually around $115-150 at online antique tool sites like Martin J.
Donnelly. So $100 for a new and unused one in the original box is a
no-brainer if you're collecting or upgrading a collection.
