There has to be a story to these signs beyond the pictures but it appears you get 4 for the price of One and a half! Of course the condition maybe less than desirable.

From the last picture it looks like they have been used as skirting on a outbuilding.

Condition is definitely an issue and are of minimal value in my opinion. Unsure, how seller came up with $12,345.00. You should go check them out considering they are in Calgary.

Sometimes on kijiji they just punch numbers in to complete the ad. I have seen it before where they just put 123456 etc. I sure hope so in this case!

Well I phoned to make arrangements and I was shunted to voice mail. I emailed and received a reply that the signs sold. I don't have anymore info.

I find it amazing how 4 Red Indian signs that look like they went thru a snow blower still manage to command great interest. Gotta love the Indian stuff! Lol

Tru dat! I was hoping that on closer inspection snow blower marks were actually clumps of dirt!

They are keeping the worst one, 2 were already sold to a local collector and the last one is being held for a friend of Kelly and Kate.

And that as they say is the whole story.
