    CL etiquette with overpriced items

    If they say it's sold, what are you gonna do? I got an offer today on my CL ad, 2 iphones for 200 each - guy offered me 100$ for both. I countered with 350. :D What can ya do? Sometimes CL is a pain. I'd move on and keep searching. Why not go with a stick welder? Edit: Point of my story...

    Evolution Rage2 Dry Chop Saw

    Our Evo Raptor sucked up a 1/4 thick piece of 1 1/2 .120 HREW tube (at an angled cut) today and broke the damn cast aluminum guard(?) and folded the sliver of tube into a ball. First time we've tried to cut just a sliver off tubing. Wasn't me cutting, but I wonder if it was pushed too fast...

    Vintage Williams 36'' Wrench -What is it?

    Only wrenches I've seen that were that big were inside the housing of a drag line! Heavy equipment I guess.

    New guy with some garage sale finds saying hi

    What'd I do wrong? Says my last post will need to be approved by a moderator? Multi-quoted? Oh well. My latest acquisitions: 1" and 1 1/4" New Britain combo wrenches - $10 -seemed like a fair price and I lack any large wrenches.

    Thanks man. I'll PM ya back here in a second. Pictures are uploading now. Thanks! I am in Reno but intend to head back to the rurals when I'm done. What's the deal with the flea market? Any good deals? I've heard about it, but not much. Very interesting, can't find much mention of it...

    Awesome thanks! Exhibit 4: Four (4) wartime production “D - I” sockets, with the knurled band bases and thick tapered walls characteristic of the "CHROMIUM VANADIUM", "SUPER", and "WARD’s" sockets shown in Exhibit 1, 2, and 3, but marked “D – I” instead of the other branding of that era: 1230...

    Hadn't thought about checking there! Thanks! Somehow it jumped out of my pictures! I'm not sure I'm super interested but it might do you better than it would me. I'll probably just end up beating it up or losing it. What's the story with these guys? Surprising to me is that it's so clean, I...

    Thanks! Wasn't really after re-sale but figured if I had anything crazy, then just maybe! I'm very pleased for 45$ though! :bounce: Gotta keep my eye on CL for garage/estate sales more often!

    Thanks! I ended up with two pair of those Kleins actually! I wondered about Fleet and Boker as I searched but didn't find much on either. Appears that Boker is the same company as Boker knives? FWIW here's a list of what I ended up with. eklind hex set snap-on 3/32 punch mckaig-hatch 4"...
