Thread: Close Call!

I don't know if you noticed, but I had a couple of ads in the hone section yesterday.... I had been examining my growing collection when I deamed a couple of them to be unnecessary. I was at my girlfriend's last night, and today when I got home a package from Howard arrived. I got another coticule (this will be #3). That's when it hit me, I DON'T WANT TO SELL NATURAL HONES! I was about to sell a vintage coticule/BBW+slurry stone and a little Celebrate Water Razor Hone (thuringian). I already sold a nice Swaty hone, but I have no remorse over that since it's not a natural. :-P

I'm sorry to anyone who was considering buying them.

Although I really don't NEED them, they sure do look sexy as hell beside each other. The idea of getting extra money is indeed nice, but when it comes to natural hones, I realized that you can't replace them. I'm glad that I came to my senses and deleted the ads before they sold. When I was checking to see if they were sold I was PRAYING they hadn't yet (of course I would still mail it if it had).

I just wanted to share my story....Natural stones are gorgeous, hold on to them. I'm glad that I didn't sell them, or else I would surely have sellers remorse.
