REALLY???!!! I could have gotten one of them the other day brand new for cheap. Had no idea they were worth so much. Missed opportunity......

Really? In that case, how much money would it take for you to tell me who that girl is in your avatar?

"It's like new"


I didn't realize you were trying to sell the same screwdriver on here. Is this a conspiracy?

 

[1950mercury]

^^^^^^ no that was my listing... i had it listed here for waaay less, had no bites so i listed it on ebay. It met reserve in less than an hour. The buyer paid within 1 min of the aution ending

$50 and I will tell you that's my girlfriend.

You started the bidding at a penny?
And it went up like that? Ok, really- What is it worth?

 

[Flatintoone]

Congratulations! That's awesome!

congrats to you. i had it saved in my watch list just to catch the bidding frenzy at the end....and it did not disappoint!

OK I'll admit, I also saved it in hopes that it would go cheap and I could snipe it

$290, apparently.

Collectors are not rational human beings...

For instance, my sister collects "Ceramic Asparagus"...

If a person is a collector, they will pay whatever is necessary to purchase an "Extremely Rare, Collectible, Left-handed Heximulticomplicator Remover"...

Someone "Absatively, posilutely had to have a clear, ratcheting SnapOn screwdriver..."...$ 290.00 was a rational price for them to pay, so, they paid it instantly..."In case the seller changes their mind..."or....

Congratulations to both the buyer and the seller...you each got what you wanted...

I just couldn't see paying that kind of money for a screwdriver that I will never use to repair anything with. I told my Snap On Dealer about people collecting Snap On tools, he thought that they were nuts, Collecting them instead of using them.

I told my Snap On Dealer about people collecting Snap On tools, he thought that they were nuts, Collecting them instead of using them.

Which is what came out the front of his head... while the back of it was going "Well, now I know where to sell my used tools!"

She looks real cute. Are those Converse All-Stars she's wearing?

Girls look real cute in Converse All-Stars.

And I thought it was crazy for the 4 piece green adjustable wrench set

How cheap? Even if you didn't know of the "collector" status, why pass up a cheap SO ratcheting screwdriver?

No those look like her purple Nikes. She has some sweet *** Chuck Taylor's.
