DumbassTurtle Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 Is the guy who is holding it the one who found it or the one selling it? I nearly busted my rib laughing at that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atala Syrcuse Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 Guess it's true what they say, you really can find anything on eBay! I have to agree with Captain_MacNamara. Some one definitely fell in the rum vat. Drink Up Me Harties Yo Ho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap'n Pete Straw Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 Is the guy who is holding it the one who found it or the one selling it? I nearly busted my rib laughing at that one. The guy holding it, according to the auction site, is the guy who found it. Let's take up a collection! We just need a little over 196,000 pirates to chip in a dollar apiece, and we can afford it!

I'm thinking if he fell in a rum vat... that he may be slightly mistaken on where he found it and what it's supernatural powers be. *giggle* I know we do the collection and just buy the vat of rum instead!!! Maybe then we can all find our own haunted pirate props... I mean ancient swords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_MacNamara Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 you know..it looks kinda like a different version of this sword: http://www.medieval-store.com/html/xcentury.htm or maybe this one, which on the website is called a cutlass classic sword: http://www.medieval-store.com/html/cutlass.htm Speaking of vats... or kegs... if I had the money... I'd have this keg installed in my house. This thing is a massive 220,000 liters... think of that in rum shares...

Â Â holy bejessie! *if you ever do get that vat i will then be your new best friend* ok i'm no expert on swords, but i've added some comments from looking at the closeups Poor Wayne could it possibly be a childs sword, looks kinda small in his hands. "THE SWORD IS 23 1/2 INCHES LONG" (god i hate people who type in caps *stab*) handle closeup very boxy looking, no curves. deffinatly not a cutlass as first stated. "I HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL EMAILS CONCERNING THE IDENTIFICATION OF THE SWORD. SOME SAID IT WAS AN EARLY 1800S SWORD, OTHER CIVIL WAR ERA, AND ANOTHER SAID IT WAS A ROMAN SHORT SWORD." full shot it doesn't look like it was all that banged up... if it was as mangled as the guy said wouldn't it take quite a bit of work to make it look that good again. "THE SWORD WAS BENT,TWISTED, VERY RUSTED, AND THE HANDLE, WHICH NOW (UNFORTUNATELY) IS SHINY, WAS VERY GREEN AND ENCRUSTED." though later in the description after many people contacted him about what metal it possibly could be he states that it was not green but blue... otherwise i'm just like um ok... though since i'm a big beliver in the supernatural it could very well be holding some negative force even if it isn't all that old. i've heard of a very very evil haunting of a bunkbed so... anyway getting offtopic.

Captain_MacNamara Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 I think that next time we have a hailstorm, I'll gather a few of the largest ones and try to sell them for a couple thousand on ebay...

Cap'n Pete Straw Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 That Texas snowball auction (as well as another being sold on eBay) made the local news here in Chicago. Later that day, we had the heaviest snowfall in the past two years -- over a foot of snow fell. I have a backyard full of the stuff right now... want some? Send me $20, and I'll ship it out same day. Paypal preferred. Damn. Stepped in some gum. Wait a minute... (scrapes it off his shoe)... I'm gonna sell this for $50 on eBay. For all I know, this was chewed by Anna Nicole Smith... or George Clooney, and they spit it out, and here it is. AWESOME! "He's a Pirate dancer, He dances for money, Any old dollar will do...

Silver Steele Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I've got a few shells, rocks and driftwood that I've picked up off the beach here after the Hurricane... wait.. the driftwood could have been part of Blackbeard's, Stede Bonnet's, or Charles Vane's ship from close to three hundred years ago! The stones could have been from the ballast! And the shells, they could have been from the time when pirates once walked the beach! CHA CHING, CHA CHING, CHA CHING!
