thos on the right, with the swivel socket head, are they a lot of use? I've seen them and can't make up my mind whether to buy or not. I sort of have a feeling that they'd be swivelling around not doing a lot ?

They are helpful when you are using one hand on one side of something and tightening on the other; they are called "saltus" wrenches.

I had a set of Trident ones, somehtign else that my ex work obviosuly stole. I loved them, used them all the time. the head doesn't flop about, its held firmly but easy to move.
I would recomend a set Frank, look on ebay uk theres a set for under 60 quid I'm sure, the same set I had.

Ooh, I now HAVE to buy some more tools
Hope I don't end up buying yours Chammy. I'll avoid any with a Glasgow address...

Nice haul.
I'd pay $30 just for the Snap-On angle wrenches. I love those things.
What size is that giant wrench. It looks like it says Superrench on it? Williams?
Hey nissan_crawler, I see you noticed the angle wrenches too, but did you catch the offset box ends.

This is the first sale that I have been to since getting hurt this summer. The wrenches are all snap on except for three armstrong ratchet wrenches and the williams wrench. The williams is 2 5/8" and heavy as hell. The guy who I bought the tools from is planning on moving from new york due to the high taxes. He and his wife set up a table next to my family at the flea market. This stuff didn't make it to the table I bought the whole tote. We chatted during the day and he asked If I would be interested in anymore tools since his sons do not want any of them. I can't wait to see what else he has.

No, I didn't. Good catch. If that's a matching set, i would sure be interested in taking them and the angle wrenches off his hands (if the angle ones are over 3/4").

+1. Also keep us posted if you decide to part with any of that nice stuff. I would be next inline for the angle wrenches if nissan_crawler didn't take 'em first.

OK, another question. I see a bunch of these with the socket on either end. Are these better ?

No way... $30 for everything?????????
Seriously, you should send the guy a thank you card or something. Actually, he'd probably be happy to know that those tools were bought - not just by a person who appreciates them - but by a guy who posts them on the interweb so taht a bunch of other appreciate tool nuts can ogle them too,
