That's a nice set!I had a few different wrench sets in my Amazon.de cart from both Stahlwille and Hazet. I had a notification that the price had dropped on one of the sets so I went ahead and placed the order for the Stahlwille wrenches. They should arrive in about 10 days. This is the first time I’ve ordered from Amazon outside of the US, hoping this process goes without any problems. Here’s the set I ordered-
6-9 mm aren’t frequently used and the deal on this set with larger wrenches would more than offset needing to buy a few small wrenches. He has some old Craftsman wrenches
I’m thinking of getting a set of Wright SAE wrenches to compliment the Stahlwilles.
Actually 7mm and 8mm (especially 8mm on newer cars) are common depending on what you are working on. And 9mm is the bleeder size for many European cars. I use them fairly often.
The things he works on might occasionally have 8mm and that is covered with some US Craftsman wrenches he already has. This set with the larger wrenches dropped really low on price, $163 USD shipped. For the savings compared to the sets with smaller wrenches he can continue using the other 8mm or buy those separately.
It is a Christmas gift so will be a little while. I wasn’t expecting to find a hot deal on them so quickly. And with all the shortages and shipping delays I wanted to get them in order sooner than later. I will post up when he gets them!
An extra long set should always be paired to a standard length set as they will be too long much of the time.
Not a lot,as Stahwille is reasonably priced,IMO.
Haha you make a great point
I orderd some Stahlwille spanners from amazon (us, not de), which were shipped from Poland via DHL. The box had tire tracks on it, was torn open, and was wet. Didn't need to use a knife to open that box, but the the wrenches were there and undamaged.
Those are fine looking wrenches, even upside down.Don’t own any Hazets but I love my Stabil20s…Especially when they are upside down !!
(Dunno what’s happening here but all images are inverted when posting from my phone)
I have an amazon addon that tracks prices, if you got them for 119e you got a killer price! Regular price is 199e
I happened to check my saved cart at the right time! Probably should’ve bought both sets available.
Its called keepa. Before that, there was a site called curiua.com that tracked prices across all amazons, com co.uk .de .jp etc. Amazon bought them and closed them down.
About two months ago I ordered the 10 piece Stahlwille series 14 from Amazon.de. They came in typical plastic tray packaging. Box arrived in really bad shape with the wrenches rattling around loose in the box. Surprisingly only the smallest, 8mm was missing. Rather than mess with returning the set I just bought an 8mm replacement from Amazon.com. If I do that again, I will probably look for sets packaged toolrolls not trays. Even with buying the replacement, the set was just under 60% of buying it on Amazon.com.
This morning when I ordered mine there were 16 left.
