Old Colemans, eBay...thanks everyone for my new addiction

Postby BobR » Mon Mar 02, 2009 1:29 pm

Thanks to all of you I am now spending way to much time and money on eBay. Just made my first purchases. a 200 series lantern, picnic cooler and stove all circa 1960's. Will post pics as soon as they arrive. This should give me the motivation to build a new trailer to carry them in :lol:

Before you know it I be cleaning up old cast iron. Anyone have a decent waffle iron they would like to donate to get me hooked?

I am both cheap and patient. I was fortunate to find an iron like Kevin's at a antique mall Sunday for $28, low base however.

Went there specifically looking for Coleman but they had none except a gas iron. :(
