Is this a Snap on box?

Or did a local pawn shop get duped with a HF 56"?

Imagine a CL ad with a pawn shop listing a HF 56" box with a Snap On badge for sale at a good price (for a snap on box).

This was not an individual.

Have a great evening!

It kind of does, get him to open top drawer and take pic of model number. The price is real high for a box that old if it is a snap on.

O wow, I agree it looks like the HF box, right down the the trim work. I wonder if the pawn shop knows or if they are just trying to slide it by. Wonder what they gave for it and if the PO is laughing all the way to the bank. :dunno:

I am not going to waste my time calling him to ask about model numbers, or driving over to the pawn shop. Its about 30 miles from me, so I wont bother.

Thanks for the verification on what I suspected.

its a HF- figure its still worth maybe $500, if its in good shape. I'd probably minus $50 for him trying to bs you...so, $450 would be a good deal. How much is the SnapOn badge worth alone?

I emailed the guy. I'll post it if I get a response.

It is not an individual. I know the ad reads like that, but this is at a pawn shop in Benbrook, TX.

Bet the pawnshop bought it thinking it was snap on. ***** that people do that on a sale.

They probably did buy it from someone thinking it was a SO. ***** that people are that dishonest, hopefully the shop doesnt loose too much $$, and the dude doesnt lose his job. And hopefully no one gets shafted buying it, either.
