RAre french handcuffs for sale

2 years and half I wanted to sell a part of my collection

http://www.network54.com/Forum/261154/m ... 123103318/

I had had immediatly an offer for the first model on the left side above : €4 000. I do not remember the name of this purchaser today but I am sure that He will probably recognize himself.
Finally I cancelled the sales in progress. It is very difficult for a collector to separate himself from a part of his collection.

Today one of these models is for sale again.



This model is in very nice condition with its original key. It works perfectly well.
Du to the rarity and the serious former offer from an US collector, the beginning selling price will be €3 000. This auction is openned for a week. Next sunday the best offer at or above €3 000 will be the owner.

Payment by bank transfer requested after the deal and shipping with insure

If you have any question do not hesitate

Thanks

It is not a joke.
For your information I have already received an offer from a serious and well-known collector.
The name of the winner with the final price will be given on next sunday evening. If the winner agree of course.
It is an unique opportunity to have this model shown in the french museum called LES INVALIDES in PARIS

part of the mail received this afternoon:

"...I am happy to have won the cuffs and they will have a good home in ny collection. For a
posting on the Handcuff Forum I do not want my name mentioned or the price paid."

I respect the decision of the new owner.

Of course, any cuff is worth what the buyer is ready to pay for it. I'm not sure it would fetch that much on ebay.

Not my main field of interest, I'm afraid. Good luck though.

The price on eBay is an offer received by the seller just after the withdrawal. The guy was surprise by such an important offer. So, he wanted to know more about the value of the handcuffs. He found my website and requested me this question. I told him that I sold some years ago the same model a little more than 4 000 euros (read above) and the second offer was 3 000 euros. So with an offer at 1 200 euros I was not surprised.

Perhaps he wants more money. A collector is interested at this price. So why not try to obtain more thanks to eBay. He will probably write again this guy if nobody bid.
