Follow the link to specs on the saw, Bosch RS5 http://www.boschtools.com/Products/Tools/Pages/BoschProductDetail.aspx?pid=RS5 Nice saw, what we like about it is the Hook to hang it, when the going gets tough! Will pack some blades in the carrying case for the lucky new owner of this saw.

Am I taking it too far that you are including a couple SKI stickers in the package?

Well then that does it. And since there's been a lull in action on this item..........these items, then I'm opening the bidding at 25 dollars.
Only starting out this low because I don't want the public to start in on me for jacking the price up.
And I'm pretty serious here. I have one Milwaukee Sawzall that is my original equipment ('74/5). Had one major rebuild when I loaned it out and the goofballs found a way to break it. To say I've gotten maximum use out of it is an understatement.
I don't ski but seeing the expression on your wifes face was enough to convince me to open the bidding.
Thanks again!
Alright, we've got a current bid of 25.00. I know we can bury that puny offer.

Man, those older pc/rockwells tried to hide the set screw. If I owned one I'd have forgotten the power they had and got something else. I didn't have good aim for that allen wrench.
Bid 40.00 but I see another...........

Oh how I missed those loose change bids. Good to see you and your coin purse.
So we have 53.16 1/2 bid on the saw, the stickers and the possible guided day of skiing with his wife's blessing only, and perhaps a couple blades to go with it.
That's not bad but how's about we keep this thing going.
We've got 53.16 1/2

Tell you what. I'will stuff a two dollar bill in the case for you, that gets your bid up to $55.16 1/2. But you got to send the other half of the Lincoln to me! Make sure it a Wheat head.

Well, you made it simpler.............
But now I have to think hard on whether I should keep bidding. I never felt good about getting involved, some might think there's some colusion going on............well, some maybe-those that know me even only on the internet know that wouldn't be the case. I'm just too damn honest.
So, for now at least, we've got a 75 dollar bid on the package.
Thanks Terry!
Say hey to Tim.
75.00 current bid , anyone care to proceed upward?

Collud away. Bid to your hearts content. No one has any more right to bid then you do. (Besides, I'll just run up the price on you!)
Actually, I would like to say a lot of things to Tim other then - Hey!

Ha ha ha.......you crack me up 
I will step back a bit and see if there's some other bid b/4 I put forth my attack.
So what was the bid?
75.00 ?
Remember now, there's a couple blades thrown in, some skiing stickers and perhaps if the wife don't beat him over the head-a couple trips down the slopes.
This isn't no small potatoes................(poor spelling and grammer, all in one)

Time for you to start bidding for yourself. My favorite part of auctions are to see how much I can make the other guy pay.

On the number of posts, I mistakingly saw the same number beside your name in multiple posts meaning that the "counter" wasn't working. It was all the same number. What I didn't realize was that the totals did move up-but they all stay the same till another post is made.
I understand I can bid, but that haunting still hangs there.

Terry,
If you bid 120.00............
then I'll bid 125.00..........
but there's still some trepidation about bidding for myself.
So, this 125.00 Current Bid is for Walter the Slateman.
And thank you for urging me (and now walter) on.

Alright, you two force me to up the anti.
Now I'll do it with a disclaimer. If for any reason someone thinks that my bid of 130.00 might not be paid into the QT coffers (if it's the final bid), of which I have control of (man, this screams wrong)........
Then I will back off and this auction will revert to the previous high bid.
I've bid on things b/4 but never won. And have never bid to bump up the price. So this is virgin territory for me.
I've changed my mind. It's just not right for me the collector to be the winning bidder on this stuff.
So, the current bid is whatever Mark placed just prior to this diatribe.
128.00 or thereabouts!
and free shipping is not included out of the continental US I'm thinking. Damn might be more than the bid>

No free ship is the least of my problems....I'm guessing the thing is 110 volt? ( half of our mains supply ) ( come to think of it.. if I win it...send it to Buck..he can always use it to drop his next lot of Alumapole scaff.) regards

Calvin,
I've bid on things b/4 but never won. And have never bid to bump up the price. Hell, that's half the fun!
I've changed my mind. It's just not right for me the collector to be the winning bidder on this stuff. Bullpuppy - besides, what makes you so sure that you will be the winning bid?
