This item is a must for any garage or do it your selfer. This vise is in used condition but well worth the money. New runs from $1250 to 1600.00. Asking $800.000 or best offer.

Locking swivel base - 360° rotation is enhanced by serrated swivel base with double lockdowns for non-slip holding and four mounting posts. Large anvil work surface minimize

I have that exact vise, It is a great vise but not for that kind of money!

Hmm. Maybe worth $500? I'll take my Ridgid and save $400.
But, yes, the ultimate vise.

Vises must have the worst resale value of any too relative to original purchase price. I doubt that guy will never get $800 for that vise no matter how good it is.

I don't know...truck brand toolbox resale values don't hold up too well compared to their retail prices....

I've seen those go for $300 used. You can get the smaller ones for cheaper, $75 or so. 6"ers are hard to find used. I know a guy who is connected in the local machinists community that has been looking for a used 8" Wilton, those are made of unobtainium.
