Ebay again... Snap on Hard handles

[Hiball]

I know these ads have been brought up before concerning the snap on hard handle screwdrivers, and how much they bring but this is getting a little rediculus. This guy engraved his tools and then decided he wanted to sell them, and in his own words "he had to grind kinda deep" to remove the initials and the auction is still bringing a fortune. Unbelievable..... I bet that grinding makes it nice and cushy to the hand.

Yeah thats what I want.....

Pay a $150.00 for some screwdrivers that have 1/4" gouge in them!

All those plastic slivers digging in my hand sure would feel good!

WTF? Some people are freaking crazy!!!! I wouldn't pay 30 for them in that condition....

They look terrible. My dealer still has the handles. He said that when they discontinued the hard handles everyone freaked. He will make the screwdrivers in any color you want other than blue and they will all have the correct model numbers. The catch, he wants $20 over list. I wonder if I should have him make me up a few sets in red and green and sell them on Ebay?

Make sure you call this guy and get the proper way to grind them before you do. Could pay off in the long run... Lmao

I'm not saying this is what is happening..........i bought a helmet on ebay and put in my max bid ........at the end of the auction the seller had another user account and bid on his own stuff, this way he could run the max bid's to the top. Then he would send the high bidder a chance to buy his supposed second product just like the one that was up for sale.
You still see this stuff going on in the games section $10.00 Ps 1 game going for $60.00, now that people can hide who they are I think even more goes on.
BTW ebay caught the guy that I had the dealing with.....I did report him. Come to find out the same guy won all of his auctions.

At least the dude with the orange handles is truthful. I tend to shy away from ebay, my experiences have not been great.

I would have rather just had his initials on them, I bet elroy could make them disappear without a trace.

It makes me sad to see people do that to tools.

Check his feedback. He did the same to his other SO tools, including a 14 PC wrench set that sold for $190.00 with shipping. For some reason when I have a SO tool with engravings the value goes in the toilet but this guy makes it worse and brings in good dough. I really need to start dragging my tools behind my car.
