    Default This is what breaks your heart

    I see 'Vintage Puma on a title for an ebay listing with a thumbnail. I open it in anticipation of seeing a beautiful Puma and instead I this horror here. ( Item number:130377815212 ) What I'm getting at is where do these people come from who have the gall to list such a thing for money ? I would be ashamed to present such a thing with my name on it.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Major bummer. Looks to me like someone tried to clean up cell rot.

    well, at least you get 3 whole days to pay for it
    that'll give you some time to figure out how to hone that little micro chip out out of the blade

    Yikes!

    Some people will chance anything on eBay in the hope that someone will give them something for it. It can be like a giant car boot sale sometimes, some good stuff but a lot of junk as well..!

    Exactomundo....

    On first glance I was thinking "scale donor" but cell rot
    would likely wreck the next blade too. A nice set of
    scales for ten bucks is a bargain but these are likely
    not nice.
