Snap on ratchets: Is this a good deal?

[celticbhoy]

Hey guys quick question. A guy's selling two snap on comfort grip ratchets, 3/8" and 1/2" drive, for $100 for the pair. I think they're the dual 80 model, here's a picture..

What do you think? This is assuming of course that they're in good shape. He's also about two hours away from me.

I wouldn't drive 2 hours for them, but that's a decent price.

i would say that it's a very good deal and if you want them,go get them.the are great ratchets.

2 hours each way?? That's 4 hrs driving time.

Assuming it's around 200 miles round trip and you get 18 MPG and gas is $4/gallon then you just spent close to $50 in gas to get them and wasted half a day and 200 miles of wear and tear on your vehicle.

They're a good deal but not worth the hassle unless he ships them.

Yup.

Alright thanks guys for the input. It's in a part of BC that i've never been to so I might as well pick them up and explore the area a bit, you know, make a day of it.

Have him throw in that 1/4" drive rat and then consider it.
