I wouldn't trust that guy to work on my vehicle if his poor attempt at pulling the wool over someone's eyes is any indicator of his character.

I say we all start calling the phone number in the middle of the night asking dumb questions..... then report him to the police.

I just hope someone isnt dumb enough to hand him a few thousand dollars.

I think it has to be either someone seriously suicidal or oblivious to what he has, thats a pretty blatant forgery, he's likely to get himself hurt trying that ****.

I'm curious to see what happens here.

I suggest flagging and seeing if he puts it back up. I just talked to him and he said he didn't know. That he got it from a guy he did some work for, and he couldn't get ahold of the guy, he didn't answer his phone.
If this guy puts the ad back up after flagging and removal, he is trying to pass on the scam.
Could also post an ad about it.

Lady in Indy had no idea. Thought they were C'man. Her husband died. She went away for the weekend and someone stole all the good tools out of the stack. Too many people had keys.

According to most of the guys on GJ the HF box is just as good so why get all up in arms about it? It's just a good right?

That's kinda asinine, dude.

Even if one could backup the claim that the HF box is identical in quality/etc, it's still not a Snap-On box, and therefore shouldn't be advertised as such.

Stop trying to provoke another HF vs. Snap-On argument.

Am I missing something? It still says Snap on......?
My bad, I clicked that second link where the guy was calling it out as a HF box. The original lister has not changed a thing even though he no knows it's not a SO box. So, he is still trying to con somebody.

I See flagging the one calling HF boxes snap on. In all honesty people have a right to ask any price. They wish, as long as they dont mislead potential buyers. If someone is dumb enough/to lazy to research, then let them pay way over retail.

The original ad is still there, the other ad warning people is gone though.

the ad hasnt changed, still says Snap-On box, I hope no one buys it, he's likely to get hurt pretty badly when they figure it out.
