Interesting German(?) Toolbox on NJ CL

[doodah man]

This is an interesting box. Priced a little high for my taste but looks to be well made. Anyone know anything about this thing?

At $100 there's competition. Hazet, Stahlwille and others make similar but nicer boxes for not much more money. The snap-on version is available for $40 at costco type stores or from amazon. I think the name is exel or something like that.

Still that one is probably really well made out of thick steel and has some prestige you won't get in a new box.

Sorry, I can't help with info about the box or maker though.

Saw that one on cl a few days ago. I think it's the same one that was for sale last year where the seller didn't list a piece and said best offer but wanted a whole lot for it.

That is what came to mind for me too. I'm almost certain we've seen that box before. If not that exact one the same model.
