That is for a SINGLE C-Man 20mm wrench !!! :D

Definitely a digit slip . . . at least one, but really two if Flee-Bay seller expects any "flurry of activity" to run up the price. At least seller didn't show picture of a whole set, and plan for boondoggle of selling just one wrench.

I think that's a real listing, and the price he intended to sell it at. It only takes one. At $29.99 it would have sold already and we'd have nothing to talk about.

I have that wrench, and I am half temped to list it at $50...I'd almost guarantee it'd sell, and within the listing time. I won't because getting another one might be pretty hard (though the Armstrong long patterns are the same wrenches).

that guy has all ways had crazy pricing on some craftsman tools. The worst is he sells some of it. He had the clearance 13pc old stock pro wrenches on there for 500 or more not to long ago. Check out some of his other auctions

I don't get the craftsman prices on ebay, you can barely sell them on craigslist, yet on fleabay the price is higher then you can buy them new for. He's banking on some OCD guy to not know where to buy craftsman industrial since the old pro sets never had a 20mm offered.

I am tempted to experiment knowing I can get another one.

Edit - I just went to Summit and it says "part will be shipped directly from the manufacturer". I wonder if they can even get it at this point.

its a 20mm you can be damn sure its not sold out lol..... I don't think anyone knows if the line is dead or not, It never had a good dealer base that stocked it but summit still places kits on ebay and most are drop shipped, I know my last order was. You could all ways call and ask or check tool barn since they have it listed also even cheaper

He's right that the old Craftsman USA professional wrench sets did not have 20mm, nor could you buy a loose 20mm professional full polish wrench to fill that size gap - so the industrial one would be the proper length, and match the others wrenches in a professional set other than saying "industrial" on it. My OCD would almost want one, but its not even worth spending $25 for me at this point. I have a Raised Panel 20mm wrench sitting along the side of a drawer in case I actually need to break that one out (its shorter than my polish wrenches so it looks wrong sitting in a wrench rack with the others) . Chances are slim I'll ever need it. At least not often and the RP wrench will work fine in that case. I'll upgrade my metric CMAN pro wrenches to snapon before I decide to spend money filling in a 20mm!
