I doubt it, but you never know. I'm still shaking my head at that ad.

The seller is playing the ebay lottery. For the cost of the listing, minimal, or free if he did it in the past couple of days, they had a promotion, free fixed price listings. Maybe he'll hit the jackpot.

The other thing is, when I looked at it (Haven't checked back) it said there were 10 available. If he is selling all 10 in one shot, maybe it would be ok, but I can think of others that I'd buy first. LOL

It's just a typo. The 5 he already sold went for $6.99.

Free shipping, which may also be for that price

Well if it's a typo, then they'd better fix it. I know I could spend $1,006.99 US in a lot better ways. I could find myself a number of Ebay specials and have them done up by the best restorers on here for that.

I just received a reply. They did that on purpose because they are out of stock.

I still wouldn't buy one. I think they could have done something different. But oh well.

Any Mods want to close this thread, it ok with me.

That's kind of funny. Perhaps it saves an ebay fee to keep it up instead of ending it and starting a new auction when they're back in stock?

Here's the hone to go with it btw. Sorry, it took me a day to find it.

Old Primitive Hone, or Whetstone, 10" | eBay

Am I the only one that thinks it looks like a piece of wood…?
