Funny, it looks like one side of the plane is missing.

That being said I think I have seen that plane somewhere before, probably the same place it is now.

If that's a plane that's in "very good condition" I'd hate to see what he deems poor, or even fair condition.

It is an early model of a #140 kind of plane.

Ebay's clueless sellers can be a good source of entertainment.

Agreed. Recently someone was trying to sell an Ohio Tool Co. wooden dado plane for $500, claiming it had sold at auction for $5,000, that the number 46 on the back meant it was the 46th one made, and that it was very rare.:rolleyes: Ok, there are a couple Ohio Tool Co. marks that are pretty rare, but this had one of the very common ones, and the plane was in fair but probably usable condition.

Sometimes I wish you could flag ebay listings like you can on craigslist.

Ok, which one of you was it?

"I was told through email that it was in terrible condition and modified"

Ps. It looks like the rare and coveted Sargent "Compass Rabbet Plane".
