    Default Rubi TS40 - Proceeds for charity!!

    Grab yourself a great cutter and help the RNLI in one go!!!

    Rubi TS40 in good working order, obviously being a cracking cutter its been used but not abused.

    Its got some chips and scratches as you would expect from a cutter thats worth its salt and gets used.
    The plastic clips used to lock the case shut have seen better days though they are still present but split so need assistance from a bungee chord wrapped round the case through the handle. Still this doesnt effect the Rubi in any way, its just another signed of a quality cutter thats been used.

    Ill throw in a used but not dead Rubi 6mm scoring wheel, and also a brand new Rubi 10mm scoring wheel.

    This was a very generous gift to me a bit back from a fellow mod so its only fair that the money from selling it goes to charity, im a keen diver so will be stuffing the cash in the donation box in the lifeboat hut next time I go. Its a small lifeboat station and the crew are all local volunteers that get called upon day and night due to divers and fishermen, including more recently a mate of mine who suffered a heart attack diving 6 odd miles out of harbour. Unfortunatley becuase of its location people cant visit it like you can with the busier ones so every donation really counts for them because they struggle for them.

    Obviouslly I want a good but fair price for the RNLI so i've checked ebay for ones that have sold recently, taken the price including delivery a really poor one fetched, and the price a used a few times one fetched and gone straight down the middle!

    So ladies and gents - £75 posted to anywhere in the uk unless you live in the channel islands or somewhere else that royal mail kindly up the cost for....lol in which case PM me to for an accurate delivery cost.

    Want to collect? - You can, from the Wakefield / Barnsley border, Lets call it £60 collected.

    I think the prices reflect a good price for fellow TF'ers, and a great result for the RNLI which I have the upmost respect for.

    why not do a raffle if it's for charity. say a fiver a ticket. if you sell 20 that's a hundred. i'm sure people would stump up a fiver for the rnli. to do it fairly if everyone has a number ticket, the first one matching a lottery ball would win

    Good idea but its got potential to become a bit of logistical nightmare collecting all the fivers in the post or having to give my bank details out to 20 people...lol

    Plus at the price its up for its a bargain for someone who will hopefully make the most of using it, Id hate to think of someone 'winning' it and not really having a use for it so it just sitting around, im a bit sentimental like that...lol.

    So Ill leave it as it stands, but thanks for the idea.
