Talk about 2 extremes on the plane front.
Yesterday I picked up a pretty nice Stanley Bailey #5 and the same guy said he had a #3 but it turned out to be a #4 so I took them both for $25. Although that means I now have 4 #4s. I have been really looking out for a nice #7 jointer to complete my primary hand plane set but they are less common and I am not ready to resort to ebay.
I know it seems like sacrilege but today I happened upon one of these. There are definitely occasions where these have their place and I have a task that can use one so I figured I would add this to my tool cabinet.
