I am buying a table saw and the old gent who's selling it also has a Bailey #7 in very good shape. Japanning in good shape, no rust, sharp. So, what is the resale value? I told him that some of these (possibly) old planes can be worth a couple hundred bucks, and I didn't want to steal it from them.
I told them I'd let them know the approximate value and whether or not I could afford it :).
Thanks,
