Bench Vise

 

I have been looking for a bench vise on facebook marketplace, and I found one last week.  The price was $70 reduced to $50.  Sweet!  I messaged the seller, and he replied that the vise was still available.  Someone had wanted it but didn’t show up to buy it.  His loss; my gain.  But after several back and forth communications, I began to understand why the fellow had backed out.  The seller refused to give me his phone number or location to meet.  I smelled a scam, so I canceled our conversations.  Then on Friday, I saw a similar new vise on a facebook ad.  I followed the link, and the price was $129.  I copied the model number and pasted it in Amazon.com and found it for $44.99 including shipping.  A better deal than my original used vise on facebook marketplace!  “Good things come to those who wait.”  Or … God watches over fools who carelessly shop online.  I Peter 5:7, “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.”  God is even interested in a 4” bench vise for careless me.  And God will take care of you too.  Yes, He will!
