How does this vise look?

[czgunner]

Found this somewhat close to me.
Is this thing worth picking up?
I am in need of a good vise. Mostly for hobby stuff in my garage.

non swivel would be a deal killer for me.

Based on the sole picture, sure, looks fine

It's been posted for 10 days....if it was worth 100.00 somebody would have bought it by now. Is it missing the pipe jaws? I'd offer maybe 40.00

In my area $100 is steep for that vise. If you want it, you better get it quick - rule #1 if you post it someone else will move on it.

I have that same vise that includes the swivel. It was my dads vise and I used it growing up. It is a decent vise but is missing the pipe jaw inserts. I only have one of the inserts in mine. No idea where the other one went but it was there when I was growing up.

It is nowhere near the same construction or value of the Wilton Bullet vice.
Not sure if I would pay $100 for it.

I'd keep lookin.

Here is a 3" bullet vise in your area for $100 https://portland.craigslist.org/clc/tls/d/portland-wilton-bullet-vise/6777567103.html

 

[dumper]

are you sure that vise is meant to be mounted without a swivel base- ask the guy to post a picture of the other side to make sure it is even drilled for a second mounting hole. In any case, its not worth anywhere near $100. Keep looking...

I used to have the same Wilton utility vise. It was mounted on a swivel. I'd be surprised if Wilton made the vise in a fixed configuration, and used the same model number. I wouldn't pay more than about 30 bucks for the first vise. The little bullet vise is a lot more interesting.

Not For Me.
Nice to have though!
Get It and another one that swivels............LOL
But looking at IT IMHO $100.00 for that Vise Is Too Too High.

Yeah, I'm thinking Too High Though also, as others have posted.

That's not one of Wilton's best, certainly not on par with their Tradesman or bullet vises. Not a bad piece of iron, don't misunderstand me, but $100 is pushing it.

 

[1982fxr]

$50 tops and that's only if the other side has a hole for a lock down lever.

I've found that yes, some items do get snapped up fast, but most of my deals are items with such poor listings on offer up and letgo they've been there for a month +, although those apps do funky things and listings can sometimes disappear for a day or more, idk if anyone else has seen that happen.

I would keep looking, you should be able to find one like that at a flea market.
I paid $20 for a similar one.

 

[exmaxima1]

$40 tops. It's a utility vise, nothing special.
