SO top chest, is it worth $675?

[RickP330]

Hey guys,
I have been surfing Ebay for a couple of weeks looking for something similar. It seems that $250 would be the best I would do for a beat up hunk of junk. Maybe 4 or 500 for something simlar used.

I was shocked to see this on the SO site. A tool box for under $1000?

Crackon dealer says there are 8 in stock and $57 tax free shipping, it can be dropped shipped to my door. He won't discount the list price though. Should I keep looking or do you think it's worth it?

I need a small box to keep in my workshop in the basement where I work on model aircraft. I hate slepping up to my big rollon in the garage to get my tools.

Kind regards,
Rick

That's a pretty small box for $675. If you want the SO name and new then go for it.

If your priority is "best value" then there are better options IMHO.

i have the same one i can sell you for $ 400

Go with my option, a montezuma LA-400r. I wanted the same box but got this for the same money and lifetime warranty and made in the USA, I think it was a better option for me, and works really well and should also be water proof if I ever put in back of my truck. Here is where I got it.

That Snap On name can be addicting. I saw 2 of those within the last month on Craigslist that looked almost new. $350, I think. So I'd look around some more.

Wow. I love it. May have to pick one up! Anyone know any coupon codes for strictlytoolboxes.com ?

 

[48548]

Not sure, but talk to shannon and tell him you are GJ member and he will hook you up with some goodies and the best price.

What kind of goodies?

WHat about a Kennedy 11-Draw Machinist Chest?

They are probably more suitable for your Model airplane stuff. I use one for lens and telescope building.

Is that one made in Canada as well? Anyone know?

I think they were looking pliers, gloves and a mini led flash light.... He adds what he can.... For free I can't complain.

Yeah,
It's a great box, I had one a while back, but the draws are too shallow for my taste.

[RickP330]

You guys have sufficently corrupted me. I think I'm going to go with this one. It is three times the size for the same price. How are you guys liking the Montazuma brand?

[48548]

I like my portable box and would buy another Montezuma again. Great quality and great shipping and price wasn't to bad on my box. I would buy from strictlytoolboxes.com as well again. I think if you read some of the other reviews people might have the box you are looking at.

 

[RickP330]

SO guy jus took 100 bucks off the price...
