What is a Taiwan spark plug tool chain saw type? I don't know what that is so I can't find it in your picture.

I've found some older high quality clothing at estate sales where they let you go through the clothes closets there, but it's a gamble if you can find something you like in your size that's not worn out. I've hit the the jackpot occasionally finding LL Bean and Lands End items that are older...

My worst shorts I devote to yard work and working on my old car, The ones I've mostly removed the dirt and grease stains from I wear at moving and estate sales since sometimes I'm digging though items in less than clean sheds, garages, and basements. I try to wear the nicer ones when I need to...

The ad for the last estate sale I went to was not at all promising. No pictures,a brief description of mens clothing (yeah, a thousand men's dress shirts), no mention of tools. I still went, and ended up with a great small parts cabinet for $5. I've struck out on many sales but I've also been...

Thanks, I usually don't find these small parts cabinets but in this case the sale didn't start until 10AM and I was the second buyer there. .

I don't think they're zinc coated, usually older items that are coated show some signs of deterioration and I don't see that here.

I thought it was bizarre too, especially since they're so small. They're only 5/8 inch long.

Went to an estate sale where the garage was off limits and aside from a couple of generic screwdrivers and pliers there were no tools. What they did have were large piles of dress shirts. The woman running the sale seriously said she estimated there were about a thousand shirts. They were piled...

Went to a flea market that usually has a few guys with some old tools but not this time. Got a roll of window screen repair tape that one hardware seller had but nothing else of interest or usage to me. One guy had some generic signage he said he picked up when the local division of the Budd...

Yard sale with some tools. I only picked up a Craftsman beam type torque wrench appearing to be new in box with styrofoam inserts and instruction manual. No copyright or date code in the manual but I'm guessing 1960's from the car illustration on the side of the box. I bought it to crosscheck...

Thanks for letting me see them all. I think they're great.

I love the coal truck licence plate, never saw one before. Are there 2 more behind it in that picture?

Couple yard sales. First, out of a small rusty toolbox holding about 8 tools I got the Lever Wrench model #10 (it's 10 inches long), $1. Next sale, another small rusty toolbox, Cornwell JE12 12 inch long 3/8 socket extension, Craftsman plastic wrench holder with the 3 smallest -vv- series 429xx...

"At the garage checkout station, I noticed this gray case on the shelf." A Fluke automotive meter that's $697 on Amazon that Provincial got for $10? If that's not suckage than I don't know what is!

I hope you don't mind me asking, but when it comes to buying older and quality tools at sales in Great Britain do you have a lot of competition? From what you see on this forum are buyers looking for mostly the same items as here in the US or are there differences?

I also zoomed in on that Proto ratchet, it looks mint. Looks great, does it have a date on it?

"Better to have the tool and not need it than to need the tool but not have it." 😁

Thanks. They are heavy for their size.

"Excide NASCAR Select 4 Gauge SAE Plus Booster Cable - 100% Copper - Bristol, TN U.S.A."

Struck out at a local estate sale, nothing there for me. Instead I got some new or almost new items off a curb on trash night. Almost new snow shovel (not shown), padded bicycle seat cover, 3 new car detailing tools, a pack of microfiber towels, bicycle lock, Excide Nascar brand heavy duty...
