Sure thing bull I'm gonna gather my money up and hit him hard this upcoming weekend ill grab a set of those wrenches and another torque wrench. Thinking $50 for the wrenches or a torque wrench that's not too steep is it? That way I can purchase more to pass on the savings

Doesn't sound like too much, no. How many pieces are in that Easco 8-32 set? Are there skipped sizes, or is it pretty complete?

The set was more complete than a full gearwrench non ratchet set I think it skipped two maybe three sets and they were the raised panel type this guy had a few sets with virgin jaws I mean as clean as the day they left the factory ill ****** up some sets next time and get a lot better idea of what brands he had its ALL USA stuff and he has multiples some with light to medium grind marks from number removal but the eascos were clean I also know where to get my hands on some easco stuff up to two inch and proto stuff up to two inch for decent prices per wrench if anyones interested

pending pics, I would be interested in a new easco wrench sets in vinyl roll from 8-32mm at a resonable markup.

Thanks
