Wow, that was a good deal. Maybe a lot of people were scared off by the fact that the seller was in France (shipping rate, language barrier, etc.)

Perhaps not as big a deal over there as we might think!

Maybe, but I think even then that had to be a bargain... I was actually watching that item, but I didn't have time to check the shipping.

BTW, if anyone ever sees something in France they want, I'd be pleased to do the translating for you... Sweden too, for that matter (but any Swede under 50 speaks near-perfect English anyway and definitely better than my Swedish!).

Hey, that's a very nice offer sir. Someone just might take you up on that.

Oh? Have your eyes on a nice Facom set, do you?;)

Lemme know...

It's missing the €18 T-bar and it has the wrong ratchet. Stahlwille sets, afaik, all come with the 512 ratchet series, with 36 teeth, the one shown is fine tooth.

Not sure the sockets are all Stahlwille, either, their chroming process gives a very uniform finish, at least two of those are a bit too shiny, and the sockets are the expensive bit, the ratchet is only €40 new.

(€1 = $1.60)
