£6.99 plus delivery for Witte (Stahlwille/Matco/Tekton/etc) screwdrivers and Torx drivers. I like the grip on these and may have stocked up 😉 https://www.in-excess.com/products/witte-standard-screwdriver-set?srsltid=AfmBOooWkmNsqyXYKLH4gnXKZ68PUWl5vSmQe0EcJrGkL7ACmey4BLFV...

Some accidental purchases here…. a few weeks back whilst at a boot sale (flea in the UK) the wife was browsing a through reams of books at a stall that prides itself on being the “10p man” thats 13 cents any item 😳 Now normally its basically landfill, but as ever 5% of the stall is gold - my...

@Outlawmws more 3d printing suckage! Cherry on the top amongst all the other bargains!

Had some free time today so I got cleaning. I dug these out at a bootsale last weekend from 3 filthy dirty dusty junk filled “50p“ totes (@67 cents). They all scrubbed up lovely too. The seller said they'd came from her dad’s ”backup shed’ they were clearing (!) so now I knew he was one of our...

A late you **** for @ctuai for the score of the Model T lamps 💡

A small haul of tools from yesterdays Sunday Boot sale (Flea market). Currently its $1.34 to a British £ you get to do the math! Starting at a solitary pound £, I secured the Stanley pin hammer (Toffee hammer over here, because of the little hammers that came bundled with hard toffee!) another...

@GaryM909 $3 😳 You **** for the Swanstrom’s!

That would be my house if my wife left me 🤣

A wander round a Brithish bootsale tiday (flea market) yieled some good buys. Laser dent pulling kit was a tenth of retail at £3 ($4.05) and seems all unused. 18” Wrench is a Record, and it and the Ridgid copy were a £1 ($1.35) each. The new German CK pin punch was £2 ($2.70) and I think is one...

@bluebolt Thats a **** and a half for 20 bucks! 5 hours of digging??? What else did you get!

@neophyte Thats my suspiscion too. I actually visited the Peugeot museum late in 2024, and I was surprised what they had manufactured apart from cars, bicycles and pepper mills! These days it seems to be sadly stickers on Chinese tools…...

Holy thread revival 🤨 😁 Last weekend I picked these NOS Peugeot pliers up for £1 ($1.36) a pop! To say I was chuffed is an understatement! I don’t think they had seen the light of day since last century when way back when I started work as an apprentice. Made in France too! These pincers...

A bit of a delayed reply but last weekend I bought al these pliers at the price of a a pound a piece! Thats $1.36 a pop for NOS european pliers 👌 The Peugeot pliers are unusual even in the UK, a bit reaarch indicates last century but who knows? The quality is excellent, and there was zero...

Nice to see you back 👍

I’m not sure if the original poster is still active, but can throw some further confusion into the fire? “Pat No 2871899” has resurfaced But with an Irwin logo attached! Purchased at a British “Bootsale” (translation: Fleamarket) for a £1 ($1.35) a piece as new old stock USA made Irwin in...

Thise wrenches shouldn't have left the factory with that QC Period. All thats happened is people are weary of the brand, and Wright spent a fortune rectifying it with shipping and warranty staff costs.

How did you happen on the box @stormking ? You can’t leave us hanging!

Nice haul @DetailSeeker you certainly **** for the wrench pickup. Drop the Britool over here: https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/threads/britool-made-in-england-thread.277755/

At late entry “You ****” to @3baygarage for the amazing haul, and a quick **** for the Craftsman rack of @INSP380 . Todays incoming for not inconsiderable £50 ($67) is Hernia inducing Record No6 Vice, in fair condition, winding well, but with seemingly recent jaws as a bonus 👍 The two 12”NOS...

I recently picked these screwdrivers in a UK bootsale (fleamarket). Can anyone date them at all - google isn’t helping much. Are they pre or post Facom buyout? They feel great and looked to have worn really well too, even though they needed a real scrub up! Any ideas?
