Very good price. I sold one of those bottom boxes by itself for $1700 on eBay about 6 months ago....so $1,700 for both is nice. Everyone usually asks a bit over what they will settle for, so go over there and offer a bit less with cash in hand.

Ask the seller for the serial number and call it in to snapon to make sure there are no liens. Or what some do, is dont give your name or address to the seller,if its not paid for he may claim well so and so has it now,go see him.

That's a deal I'd jump on if the box is in good shape. That would sell for $3000. pretty easily cleaned and lubed. More if it is in excellent shape.

Anybody think it could be slightly warm? That seems to good to be true. I would still call SO and find out what's up with that.

The guy said he owned a Snap on franchise and the numbers would check out. I asked him to send me the serial numbers.

They've both been pulled by the poster. Hope you got one.

No, I didn't buy anything off him, but I wasn't really pursuing it. I'd love to have that setup, but it's way more than I would probably ever need. If I had bought it I would've looked to flip it and make a nice profit off it.
