Been a long time since I've seen these

Those things are waist deep on ebay for a couple bucks a piece.

My recollection about those is: (1) they stick to your skin when you touch them; (2) when you pull the lever, the cubes shatter into a zillion pieces. It's fine if cracked ice is what you want.

I got some for a member at a thrift store for 4.00 a piece, and even then it seemed pricey, but worth the suprise!

These claim to be stainless steel. That must account for the high price.

IMO...the old aluminum ones work excellent

Give 'em a quick pass of water from the kitchen faucet, just along the outside, set 'em on the counter and give the lever a firm pull. Mine never shatter the ice cubes. (Mine are "Philco" brand with the aqua pull tab on the end of the tray portion.....they go with my '52 Philco.)[this post was last edited: 4/11/2011-00:04]

Is my country too "old school"?

We still find those very easily on supermarkets. And they are very cheap.
There's also the plastic version that you only need to bend it (and it's even cheaper)
