Pre-WWII Stanley Socket chisels -BooHoo

While my wife was doing an Antiques show this weekend I saw a poster advertising a gun show. Having never attended one even though I am a card-carrying member of NRA I decided to see what was being offered. I spent about 2 hours looking at guns I never knew existed and spent my last $30.00 buying 28 ga. skeet shells at a slight bargain price. The show was over at 4 p.m. Just before then, as I was making my way to the exit, I looked down on a table and saw four absolutely pristine pre war Stanley socket chisels with newly turned and waxed maple handles. The backs had been flattened and polished and each of them (1/4, 3/8/, 1/2, 3/4) had a polished micro bevel. Obviously this gun dealer was a woodworker who knew how to sharpen. How much? I enquired. The gun dealer said, "Well I wanted $45.00 but if you want them you can have them for $30." "OK. I'll take them. You take credit cards, right?" "Nope, I'm not set up for that. I can only take cash." No ATM close enough to get cash before he folded his tent. Damn, I wish I had not bought those shot gun shells.
