ouch chris i feel ya pain, i remember once about 10 years ago i was shopping at a flea market with my mom.
i came across someone selling a knights of columbus sword, a saber (marines i think?) and another sword in excellent condition.
after speaking to the vendor about them i was all set to buy them, at an incredible deal.
except i left my wallet at home, and she wasnt feeling well so we finished up her shopping and headed home.
i came running back for those swords but he had just sold them not 5 mins earlier...
the price of not being prepared.
