How can more than 100 lookers and 3 watchers pass this hammer up?

that was a nice looking hammer.

Yes it is a nice hammer. Bought cheap at a garage sale out of a box full of Chinese hammers.

Sold for opening price plus shipping.

Might have to do with the head being in rough condition and a non original handle. I know I wouldn't pay more than that for similar.

Handle looks original.

I think someone did a good job of re-handling it. Proto handles had an octagon shaped hand grip. 

Only reason I would pass it up is I have two already,  good tool at a good price.

I believe the bottom half also was painted green and if I remember they had a "dimpled" handle.

I bought a box of broken handle fairmount 20-25 years ago 15-20$ sold a bunch off for 15$ with a new handle. Some go high some go low and the rest are in between.  They made some polished one for a aniversery (what year?)  I kept them!

I sell many items for the 9.99 opening bid or that do not sell at all  that have several or many watchers.  I think a lot of watchers are just people who have one that want to see the sale price.

Hello, Papaw & wvtools. . I understand!!!!   I even get watchers on a Buy it Now, and a lot of One Bid Wonders !!!!  Regards, Lou

Looks like a buyer is going to get a nice Vlchek 11" Auto wrench at a good price today also.
