Most of my prices give anywhere from $5000 to $9000 in mint condition for a R1173 Baby Bullet. I think $2500 might get that one. I've got one but its not in as good a condition as the one on Ebay. I will be surprised if it doesn't get over $2500 before the auctions over.

That's the same knife that sold for $1198 plus shipping at the end of December. 1198 + 5.60 = $1203.60

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Remington-R1173 ... 7675.l2557

Sold it for $4058

So $4058 - 1203.60 = $2854.40 not a bad profit for a one month turnaround.

So it goes with eBay and auctions.

The guy that first sold it described the handles as having a crack by the lanyard hole.

The guy who just re-sold it claims there are no cracks in the handles, I can see one on the front side.
For that kind of money someone is going to be disappointed.

It's funny the seller did not mention the cracks. The original buyer has 537 feedback and asked if there were any cracks in the handles. The seller has 537 feedback and states no cracks in the handles. ::td::
It must be a different knife. :shock:
He does not show the pouch :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I hope the buyer asks for his money back.
This seller has sold a few Remington knives.
