    Someone else got a good bargain.

    All three went for $51.00

    1956 BSA Viscount (hunter) in 7x57 for $500, I'd buy another twenty at that price.

    Butler Creek sling and swivels, Stoney Point shooting sticks, Harris non-swivel notched-leg bipod and a Stoney Creek belt pouch, All for less than $120 delivered, when I was just starting out.

    Bipod alone was worth that much, so definitely came out ahead on that one. Especially considering I use each of those items regularly.

    Quite a few things, mainly cars. My 2006 sr5 Hilux was a good buy at $26K back in 2010. Fours years old, 120kms.

    Swazi gear I buy a fair bit of and often get good deals.

    Best hunting deal was probably my left hand Browning A-bolt 223. Leupold VX1 on top. All brand new, got it for $850 of an American who brought it over with him and never used it.

    120kms in four years? Did they drive it from the dealers to the garage and leave it sitting there or something?
