Default Nice surprise from EBAY buyer today!!!

Received a package today from an EBAY buyer. Patrick, from The Caseworks Company, woodworking company.

I sold him some Detroit Tigers Seat slats from Briggs/Tiger Stadium.

He sent me this pen with a note:

Hello Joe, "Thanks for offering the Tiger Stadium Slats up for auction. I thought they would bring more money than they did. So, I made you this pen. The lower portion of this pen is made from part of a slat and ironically it's made of Maple. Best regards.

My name on one side and Tiger Stadium on the other side.

Joe

That is a really great story thanks for posting this and nice to hear a story about someone doing something nice like that. I like the pen better than the slats.
