Question about snap on KRSC246???

[Deafautotech]

What do you think?

I do like the snap on new service cart as have two narrow drawers while my Matco jsc750 don't have it. The Matco jsc750 are work hard for me as do a lot of heavy lines works. But problem is Matco don't offer lifetime warranty. Snap on are offer lifetime warranty on slides and casters and shocks.

Problem is this snap on cart are little less wide than my Matco jsc750. But I need to organize much better as my drawer had whole pliers and else scattered around.

Same time I need one for at my garage as work around my vehicles, motorcycle or put it front by garage to work outside if big truck don't fit in.

But problem is I feel like I could masterforce box to do similar and much cheaper price( I must have lock system as my garage are not level as smooth..
Second problem is that seller has some of balance to pay off but he will pay it off once if I buy it with cash but I might have my snap on guy call him and his local snap on dealer to see what is about.
I am not sure what I could do better for myself...

In my area I would only pay 1100 max for one if it had larger casters and double slides. For that box I would pay 800 tops. If I was in your shoes I would buy a SO KR5xx bottom and put a pry bar box on it with a wood top. SHould be able to get every around 550-600. It doesn't have rock and roll so you wil have to lock your drawers when you move it. I find that sellers over value this and similar boxes. Good boxes though. Btw if you are going to buy it, and are concerned if he is going to pay the snappy man. Buy the box with the tool guy there.

The 246 competes directly with the 46 since it trades width for depth. In my opinion I think the 246 is massively overpriced (at list) considering the dimensional trade offs and the $700 price difference. At $1100 though, well its just over 50% off list so its not an awful deal. Priced pretty fairly I think.

Don't worry about what is owed on the box. He owns the debt, it doesn't transfer with the box. Once the cash changes hands that box is yours and whatever balance he still owes snap-on is still his plain and simple. I wouldn't even bother calling the dealers.

I am willing to bet that cart has Lock N Roll drawers. My KRSC46 did. I don't know what the market in his area is but I think he can get $1000 for that cart. Its the newest big boy cart.

it has lock and roll. I was refering to my alternative not. sorry for the confusion.

That box is border line a good deal like if you want that color it's prime, if you don't then it just a mild deal. The quality is there, hopfeully its as nice as he claims. Hope all is well with you Andrew

 

[Deafautotech]

I don't care about color.... I am use it as working not show off.... I don't buy a toolbox as my favorite color. I buy what it would be better suit for me..

My snap on guy said it is retail at 2,295 dollars...

I would certainly make sure it gets paid off if you buy it.

$1100 seems a little high, I'd shoot for $900

 

[bustdknuckle]

Since he owes money on the box I would call his dealer and make arrangements to pay his dealer the amount he owes and give him the rest. True that he kkeps the debt but if he quits paying the payment snap on will come to your house and repo the box and you will be out of the money. The serial number on the back is linked to the loan and they don't care who has the box or if you payed they care if he payed. My dealer was saying that he has had to do it a few times over the years

 

[Deafautotech]

My snap on guy told me he would do to make a call and see what's up to see what it would need do as he don't want me caught in lien problem(collection). But I am still debate as price make me little iffy... But it is make me a easier to work around. Also lifetime warranty are big plus for myself...

Yeah but it is only few months old and it is 2,295 dollars new. Problem is the seller are firm on price so I could just wait.. I don't need it now but I just want grab a good deal because I had missed many good deals...

 

[warmpancakes]

retail was 2300, My dealer had them on sale for 1500 plus tax about 6 months ago if you traded in any cart , people were trading in new in box 50 dollar harbor freight specials, He ended up selling about 20 carts in 2 weeks

 

[Deafautotech]

The reason is why I want discuss so I can make a debate and see if it is good or not.

 

[warmpancakes]

its a good price id offer 1k if you dont like it , odds are you could resell for same price, Personally I like a cart with a more open top for spray cans and parts

I can put parts on my Matco jsc750 to do repairs.

It doesn't matter, his dealer cannot reclaim a box that has been resold period.

The serial number on the back is linked to the loan and they don't care who has the box or if you payed they care if he payed.

You are 100% wrong Snap-On corporate does not use serial numbers to track payments in any way shape or form. Your dealer is full of it if that's what he told you.

True that he kkeps the debt but if he quits paying the payment snap on will come to your house and repo the box and you will be out of the money.

No, actually that would be theft on your dealers part. Snap-On corporate wouldn't have anything to do with that. They don't sell items with a title and as a result legal ownership is transferred to who ever has the item regardless of the amount of debt remaining.

Let me make a simple example. Its exactly like buying something with a credit card. Lets say you buy a $3000 sofa for your home then default on the card. They chase the debt, they don't come to your house and reposes your sofa. They could care less what you purchased.

Dealers can reclaim items as a form of reimbursement but not without permission.

 

[bustdknuckle]

That was how it was explained to me by several different people and different dealers that have done any thing to make me not trust them. Our snap on dealer has been called by corporate snap on to either get payment or repo boxes and carts that weren't played for

No he hasn't. Again snap-on financing has nothing to do with box repossession. It only becomes an option if you get permission from the owner and the dealer has taken it upon himself to take the box back as payment. Snap-On financing itself doesn't do that. Walking onto the property and simply taking it would be theft. Again going back to the CC example, it would be like a representative of your CC agency going into your house without asking and taking your Sofa because you defaulted on the card you bought it with. That is illegal in every sense of the word.

Once more, they go after the debt (which they own), not the box (which they don't).

 

[warmpancakes]

hence the reason its called "unsecured debt"

Update: my snap on guy came here today as his route. I did discuss with him about it, he said it is sound good deal but he has phone number from other snap on dealer who sold it to that seller, found out the seller has 2,400 dollars owes and the dealer said he are plan to come after him since the seller don't make any payments after he quit. My snap on guy told me to not do a deal with that seller as don't want see me get in trouble and lose the money. So I am back off...
