Finaly Got one, It went on ebay last night. I pay £62 for it. Which I think is a good price for it. For some reason ever one gave up 60 sec before the auction ended! Some one else could have WON this for £62.50! I wasnt going higher than £62
Any advise on how to keep it clean and fresh?
Don't let it see oil...maybecheck the flatness.....thenEcsher night away.

It just keeps getting better.
Nice rock, hope you enjoy it!
verry nice
Nice Escher! Assuming it doesn't need to be lapped, the only thing is to not use oil. Other than that, it will be fine. Enjoy.
Congrats, I forgot to bid :o
Like you NEED another rock...:rofl2:Quote:

I was watching that one too, but figured it'd get way out of my price range:(
Its called physiological price war fare, I kept bidding ever time I was out bided simply to creating an illusion. Four days to go and the price was £31 with 18 bids. When you have a look at this, you will think Its just four days to go and the price is high, and all these guys are prepared to go to war, You probably going think I will end at £150. My advise next time would be to place your maximum you are willing to pay 15 sec before the auction end.

It works...
OMG I just tried my Escher Hone, now I know what the fuss is all about!!!!
This is not helpful to the rest of us who have everything except a good thuringian type hone.Quote:
