Craftsman Vintage Toolbox/Drawers

[jcs98]

Hi Folks, newbie here, I have from what I can tell a 1950's Craftsman Toolbox set in excellent condition, I have just degreased her and lubed the slides, everything works great and it has its keys, Minor pitting in the 'hammered' finish mostly on the horizontal top of lower cabinet.
I can post more pictures as needed, please see a few which are attached. I am trying to find out its value so I can properly sell it. Can you all help or point me in the right direction? Its an awesome box.

Look on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace for similar items in your area and price this accordingly.
Keep in mind what a new one goes for. Not everyone thinks these are special, so don't get your hopes up too much. The right person will pay a fair price.
Keep us posted and, yeah, more pictures!

Always a good idea to post your location below your screen name. Seeing as the stack is probably 26" and the drawers are friction sliders, I think if you got $150 for the two of them, you would be doing OK, less if you just want to get something more than you paid, and on to the next find. I see a 7 shelf (counting the opening hinged top) and a 3 shelf lower.

A bit over 2X that gets you a Harbor Freight Yukon box, much heavier-duty, much larger. 46" W x 49" o.a. & 18" deep, ball bearing drawer sliders, which are going to hold a lot-more weight than what your find is gonna carry.

Appreciate the notes, thanks. I was really checking to make sure I did not just give the thing away if it had signicant value so onto marketplace they go.
