Brass color lock. 656 Abloy. US 1998 B- 2 keys.

OK. First off you guys are amazing. I really mean that. And also scary! You make things look and sound so easy. Nothing is safe is it?!?!?

Honestly, my passion is not Locks. My passion is Ebay. I make money selling strange things, nice things, fun things.. anything.

I have currently run across a source for these locks. I can only get so many per day. If I start listing them on ebay, yea, my competition watches me and they will find my source and I'll lose out on some locks... (yes, with this many kids, I'm a greedy guy!) I would love to sell some here off ebay before my source dries up and I start them on Ebay.

I know, new guy, new account. Here for one thing and one thing only. Yes. You're right. Flame away. I can take it. But, if you want a lock. I'll sell them here for $100 each. On ebay I'll start at $150 each.

Payment will be through paypal, so you know if I'm not on the up-and-up you can start a claim and get your cash back.

If you would rather wait a week or two I'll let you know when my listings start.

PM me here and we can talk.

For those not in the know, this is the model with the thicker shackle as compared to the 655 model. If I didnt just buy something exotic, I would totally get one of these. Thanks for posting it. the shackle is 1/2 inch thick. here are the specs: http://www.abloyusa.com/PDFs/Lit/GovtPLspecs.pdf

+1 on all that, Squelchtone. If I had the extra dough, one of those 656 locks would be finding a new home in my collection, too.

I really do love this site. Now I'll have more things to find while scouting for Ebay items. Locks. Who knew?

For every lock sold here I'll send a $10 donation to this forum. I'm also going to pay shipping on these.

Thanks

Scott

No takers on here... and someone found out about these... my source has dried up.

Here's the listing for anyone interested. I need to get better pics when I can, these aren't so good.

mention you saw it here and offer me $100 and I'll take it. (and still give the Mods their referral fee!)

Thanks

Scott

EDIT [Elbow] Hi, thanks for the donation from the sale proceeds. So you are aware, in some of the forums, a new member have to have their posts manually approved (Such as in BST or the BAzzar, etc... Especially when posts into these forums contain images.) In the future please don't post images that have email addresses in them, even if they are ours. Well, for that matter, don't post email addresses in general unless it is to a sales rep at a lock company if they are a particularly good contact at the company who is known for being particularly helpful or something. Thanks again![/EDIT]
