I AM OFFERING SET OF FIVE (5) ASSORTED USA-MADEFORKS AND SPOONSFROM ONEIDA\'S BEST18/10LTD STAINLESS IN THEIR HARD TO FIND, LONG RETIRED ACT II AKA ACT 2 PATTERN (WITH THE MATTE/SATIN FINISH). THE LOT CONSISTS OF (3) STANDARD TEASPOONS (THE SMALLER OF THE SPOONS IN A PLACE SETTING), AND (2) DINNER/PLACE FORKS (THE LARGER OF THE FORKS IN A PLACE SETTING). BACK STAMPS READ \"(THE LITTLE \'CUBE\' LOGO) ONEIDA (THEN ANOTHER LITTLE \'CUBE\' LOGO)\". THESE ARE NOT NEW, AND THEY DO SHOW EVIDENCE OF USE, STACKING AND WASHING. I DO NOT, HOWEVER, FIND DINGS, DENTS, GOUGES, BENT TINES OR DISPOSAL DAMAGE AND I WOULD RATE THEM AT 8 1/2 OR HIGHER ON A SCALE OF 1-10. SINCE ONEIDA HAS NOT MANUFACTURED IN THE USA IN MANY YEARS NOW, IT IS BECOMING INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO FIND THE OLDER USA-MADE PIECES...ESPECIALLY THOSE IN SUCH GOOD CONDITION! DO YOU NEED TO REPLACE MISSING OR DAMAGED PIECES? OR JUST ADD SOME EXTRAS TO YOUR SET? I CAN SHIP MULTIPLEWINS TOGETHER FOR $5.95 TOTAL COMBINED POSTAGE.

ALSO, IN CASE YOU ARE NOT YET AWARE, THE LAST ONEIDA STORE HAS NOW CLOSED PERMANENTLY AND I WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL INVENTORY.

*** PLEASE NOTE *** MINE IS A SMOKING HOME. ALTHOUGH THE ODOR DOES NOT PERMEATE THE STAINLESS, YOUR PACKAGING MATERIALS MAY INDEED SMELL OF CIGARETTES. I JUST WANT YOU TO BE AWARE OF THIS IN CASE IT IS OFFENSIVE TO YOU.
