0 bids still!  Here's to hoping it will expire and re-list a $200 cheaper on the buy it now! :)

I offered him $500.00 privately. Good luck with that Sir Ian. :)

$501.oo!!

You ain't bottom-dollar bidding me, Sir James. It shall be mine!!! Oh yes!! It shall be mine!! I'm the only Order member here without an Albion in his collection. I need it to become one with the high-society.  ;D

Well, my birthday is in 2 months, and I could use a present. I live in Sparks, NV so shipping shouldn't run you too much. ;)

I dont have an Albion either yet. Been wanting one for a while, Jesse Bailey hasnt gotten back with me on it so I assume they lost interest in selling it to me. Though I think I should message them again about it, in all honesty I get worried they forgot or something.

Just joking, I didn't bid on it. I don't have any Albions either - I'm finding myself partial to the Arms & Armor weaponry lately. Good luck with the sword. :)

His original "buy it now" was only $100 off the price of getting one new. I think he may need to bring it down slightly more. I think to most people, used is used, even if it's in perfect mint condition.  Saving maybe 15% isn't always enough to get someone to spring for it when they could just wait and get a new one later when it's more convenient.

Probably 5 or so years ago, there was a time when you could recoup 90% of the purchase price or more, since people had the money and wanted to bypass the order lag-time from Albion. I think that time has passed. :)

At least his minimum bid is now $200 below Albion's price.

I've kept an eye on it, simply because its a beauty and I like looking at it.  As I continue to do so, the little things, like the high rivet block, the gently flaring arms of the cross, the well defined pommel, all point out that I have, in fact, the Squire Line version and not the 'upscale' Next Generation version of this sword.
