.....Might not be such a good deal. I found a very good shape 1/4" drive Snap-On TM737 at a local pawn shop a week ago. BUT, I was at Sears last night and saw an almost identical ratchet (except for the plastic handle) in a Gear Wrench China version.:shocking:

Here is a pic of the one I purchased.

Welcome to the "Frugal Shoppers Club". Others think "WE ****", but they are just jealous of our tool finds.

You did good.

Thats a great deal, hard handle snap-on ratchets are in great demand and often fetch near new prices.

Great ratchet and value for the money. Too bad though, you are bitten by the used tool bug. :lol_hitti

Awesome deal. :thumbup:

Last friday I asked how much for the "new" version of the same ratchet off the truck.
$89.50 :shocking:

Figured one day I will run across a find like yours.

wow.. and you got it at a pawn shop !? I think the guy forgot the 0 in the price. $90

I agree that they labeled it wrong. It was in a glass locked case at eye level. There was a Craftsman standard teardrop 1/4" next to it for $10.:dunno: The label on in was marked Snap-On and was dated November 5, 2008. I can't believe that it sat there that long with the priced showing until I bought it
