I was the first bidder on the Escher, I would really like to get one, then it all goes crazy. The prices are getting out of hand.

For the collector a fine box like the one with the Escher will drive the price way more than what most hones are worth. Nice too learn from such I diverse group of people.

Tonights Escher closed at $202.50. Nce stone with full label but it looked as though there was a large chip on the label side. No photo of the "business" side though.

For all you new guys. I picked up a Swaty yesterday for $5.
In addition I bought three other stones for an additional $10.
Keep you eyes open, they are all over.
No problem, and I meant no offense by my post. I admire the fact that you decided to learn a language not originally your own. Rest assured that you've done an extremely fine job.Quote:
