[krusty the clown]

are you sure its snap on?

 

[danski0224]

Looks like it, but not mine and not 100% sure.

are you sure its snap on?

That's what I'm thinkin' as well -- It could be a scam. Taking some C-man ball bearing (or similar) chests, and rebadge them as SNAP-ON.

I saw a similar scam at a swap meet a month ago -- the guys who were selling these boxes were lucky they didn't get their a$$es kicked by some of the more vocal attendees.

Not saying it's right, but even it would happen to be a rebadged box, at that size, it is probably still a decent deal. A C-man of that size (if available) would probably run you around $3000.

I have just gone through my past Snap on catalogs and nothing even comes close to what that looks like, but I'll be damned if that doesn't look like a bunch of Craftsman boxes put together. Just take a close look at the lids.

 

[Moose-LandTran]

They're not Snap-on boxes. Not even close.

 

[CAT_serviceman927]

That is NOT Snap-On. Those chests and roll cabs are probably Craftsman or Waterloo. The side box might, might be a SO KRA series side box, the rest deffinitely not craftsman.

I'm about 15 min away and could probably go and check it out later today

no phone number, so i e-mailed him .

 

[Moose-LandTran]

take a Snap-on catalogue with you and keep flicking through it going "Which one is it???"

 

[nissan_crawler]

Keep in mind, this might not be a scam, and this might be a victim of a scam...

My sister knows that Snap-On is "good", but she wouldn't know a Snap-On box if it bit her on the ***. This guy might genuinely think he has a Snap-On.

 

[Moose-LandTran]

The side box might, might be a SO KRA series side box.

That side box does look a lot like the real deal.

I saw that last night. (They must have reposted this morning.) It seemed fishy to me at the time.

 

[jyoukhanna017]

Well still no reply from the seller, maybe tomorrow

I went to look at a box advertised as a Clarke.
When I got there it had Snap On stickers... wtf?
