Your Friend the Wallet

A man's wallet is more than just a wallet. It can almost be like a family member. Here's a story that can give you some idea of this. The guy described his old wallet as a black behemouth of leather. It was a trusty companion throughout the hardest times of his life which had even been used as a pillow.

The demise of the wallet came after his dog got a hold of it. He is slowly getting over this tragedy. He's planning on a change for his next wallet: a flashy smaller model with money clip.

Thanks to the commenter who posted a link to this article!

Spotted on e-bay--Whoaaa(!):


This is a genuine Mont Blanc Wallet that I used for about 1 year. It was given to me by my ex-girlfriend and my wife is obsessed that I get rid of it.
I believe original tag was $160. Wallet condition is about 7/10.


S&H $6.95 + $1.00 optional insurance.
Will ship world wide. No returns.
Happy bidding.

A man's wallet is a constant companion and a very personal object of his affection:

A wallet "matures" once it is "broken-in" by him, and they form a unique bond!
