I like the look of it but if it's just glass then I'll cut myself a peice and get busy with the sandpaper.
It's not glass. It's a simple barber hone. Given the significant chips and the hardness of barber hones in general I would not bid on that hone. It's at $10 now and would require extensive lapping to get a decent surface.

I reckon I paid the max for it but it looks pristine.
You must need to update the link. The link you've cited for the hone you won is the same link for the stone we've commented on.

I'd say that's a fair price for that hone. Have fun with it.
