Saw this set for sale by my house, was wondering if any profit could be made from buying it and selling the stuff. I know the ratchet and multiplier are Snap on but I'm not sure about the sockets and other stuff, it looks like they say Illinois Industrial.http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/tls/740708847.html

At that selling price, I am not sure how much profit could be made. Also, if I am not mistaken, that is a ratchet adapter for tee-handles and breaker bars, not a torque multiplier.

Looks a bit high priced to me.

1. It doesn't say what brand of sockets they are (Could be HF)

2. A torque multiplier is very expensive, but I don't see one. What I see is a Ratcheting adaptor.

3. The Ratchet doesn't look in very good shape.

It is not Impact sockets as it is Industrial socket(non-chrome) set... why 300 dollars for that set???? I know snap on ratchet, ratchet adapter are worth more than that set but is it Made in USA????

They are more likely NOT impact either. 12 point is fairly uncommon for impact. The "multiplier" is a ratcheting adapter for a breaker bar. I'd say the ratchet is no more than $75, and the rat adapter is another $45. Talk him down, if you can.

That's too funny. All of us posting the same thing, at the same time.

Even if you do need it pass, and yes the rest of the guys are right that is a ratchet adapter, I have one just like it for my 3/4" set.

From the looks of the sticker/box the sockets may be made or sold by illinois industrial tool inc.; their stuff seems like rebadged imports. http://www.iittool.com/products.asp?id=35&page_no=2
I wonder why he didn't list the brand of the sockets? Probably cheap imports?

Geez, if Chad (resident Snap On guru) tells you to pass... then by all means, man, PASS! :bounce:

Our local discount store sells IIT tools. Very cheap Chinese items. They have signs up everywhere telling people all returns are through the manufacturer. They say it about broke them before they did.
