Sold, now thats a surprise ;-)

I have to say since getting a Kurt, clamping things is just much better than with the not so good vise I was using.
 
It's funny I was in London last weekend for family xmas party. I normaly will direct my marketplace and kijiji browsings to the area where I travel for a few days prior to sniff out any deals worth buying, but I guess I missed this one lol. It's a good deal. It's the older style which I don't like where the carrier hangs out the back, and opening is only 7.5", but it's still a great vise if someone is looking to upgrade from an import, or recently bought a full sized mill with no tooling or workholding. MUCH cheaper than buying new, even mid tier imports.
 
It was actually up for 4 weeks apparently but, he must have just reduced the price to move it or something.

Hopefully someone here got it.
