Leather BCUK Flask - Made by Eric_Methven

[andyn]

Got this last year from Eric: http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=22068

But not really had as many chances to use this as I would have liked - Only once in fact

So thought that rather than it sit in my cupboard someone else would have more pleasure out of it than me.

It really is rather plush and i'm still kinda in two minds about selling it.

Anyway, looking for £50 inc paypal and recorded postage costs.

Quick, before I change my mind.

Thats a nice flask, but you only paid £45 for it and its now 2nd hand!

 

[andyn]

ah yeah, thought it was £50. well i paid postage and fees etc on top too tbf iirc.

And after a coating of mead it will have improved the lining, so its better now than it first was

Also...if that way of thinking was followed, ray's knives would be on ebay for £2 not £400.

Eric's work looks superb. There is quite a waiting list for these.

You can charge whatever you want for anything, it just depends on someone buying it.

 

[Greg]

Fair comment about the mead probably making it better!

Quick, before I change my mind.

I remember that time well...I saw the post pop up and in the few minutes while I was deliberating what SWMBO would say, andyn got in. If it had just been my on-the-spot decision, I reckon I would have had it. Unfortunately, I'm still in that dilemma so I'm going to pass on this one.

Bump....

Will considers offers.

Think this lovely peice of craft work should go to someone that is able to put it to use.

 

[fishy1]

I offer £20. I don't think it looks as good as some of his other work, and it's used.

 

[Bushcraft4life]

£20 is a joke, sorry to say mate, its worth a lot more than that.

I think it would also be better to keep offers to PM's

Andy

PM sent re flask

 

[andyn]

Hi fishy,

I've no issues. Don't worry. £20 is too low for me tbh mate, so thanks but no thanks. Also I don't think you would knock the quality of the flask if you saw it. But each is entitled to their own opinion.

Elrond, thanks the PM, I have also replied.

Cheers guys.

 

[andyn]

forgot about this, and is still sat in the cupboard begging for someone to use it.

I hope you get many a happy time from it. Eric did a great job on that and all his flasks. Tis just a shame I didn't get to use it much.
