Even it is not 80 teeth dual technology!!! forget it! i am rather to buy 80 teeth dual technology instead have 36 teeth!!


That's what I would do, even if I have to wait a little while. It even states right in the auction that it retails for $112 and yet they still are driving it past it’s retail price. WOW!!

I've been trying to pick up some SO tools on ebay to fill out my new used SO KRL7002 box I bought on Craig's list locally. Haven't had much luck. They all go for to high a price, I might just wait and buy them on SO on line as I need them. Did buy three SO end wrenches for $23 that were in nice shape some grind marks tho.

For as much as most people want for used tools, I have found that if it is something that I really want, it works for me just to buy it from the local dealer. Then, it's brand new and if there are any problems, I know they'll be taken care of (our dealer's cool like that).

Yeah, not all Snap on guys are assholes. Our dealer's sons are friends with some former students of mine. I dunno... this may sound sappy, but if I purchase the tools from him, in a way I am supporting the kids in my areas....

I agree but being a Diy I hate having to chase the Truck down. I would buy off the truck if He would stop at the shop, but to be honest He'd be wasting his time with me as I only buy occasionally.

I meet up with our dealer at a friend's shop. I know his route time, so it's no biggie for me. That and we must be at the end of his loop for the day because he's never in a big hurry... just a real pleasant guy to do business with. If you were closer, I'd recommend that you come on over some Monday afternoon! :lol:

This reminds me of when I sold two 650 Holley's on ebay. Both of them had corroded metering blocks, very clearly pictured and stated in the auction. Between the two of them, they needed about $120 of parts to get them working, so the auction was mostly just for them as parts.

Get this...two idiots started getting into a "my e-***** is bigger" bidding war...the two corroded out carbs sold for $210!!!. :wtf:

Idiot paid for a brand new 750 double pumper for me. :lol_hitti

You just have to be patient and cross your fingers. I just picked up an eleven piece Snap On wrench set for half of retail including shipping. They are out there, just have to have a bit of luck.
