Pawn shop stop...

[jeepnut24]

I hit a few shops today on my day off, in the middle of the snow storm. It was messy, but I found a few tools. Nothing exciting, but I couldn't pass them up...

Partial set of CMAN metric nut drivers. 10/9/8/6mm I guess now I need the rest.
CMan 3/8 centerpunch
Westline 11/16 19/32" Drop forged USA??? Never heard of them
Armstrong 9/16 1/2"
A Kawasaki wrench, too neat to pass up... 12 13mm
And a well used FL936. Its got owners marks, but Ill be putting it to use so no problems there. I was looking for one.

The Snapon was $35 and the rest were $.75 a piece. Had to pick up the wrenches to make the minimum purchase price. But they were neat. Just need to clean them up.

I saw some proto torque wrenches but was sure on their quality...

Oh and some wrenches with a K inside a diamond. No other real markings????

Too bad some idiot had to grinde it

Yeah, but hey after a good overhaul it will serve its purpose and it was a lot cheaper than what Im finding on ebay.

Not bad, I picked up a yamaha wrench a couple months back. Just couldnt pass it up.

Likely Kraeuter...

Hi,

K inside a diamond is the Kraeuter co.

Minimum purchase price? I've never heard of such a thing.

$5 minimum to run my card... Meant I picked up the old wrenches.

What is this Kraeuter company? US? Other? Never heard of them.

 

[lbgradwell]

Long gone...

Kraeuter & Company

Debit card?

 

[jeepnut24]

Debit card?

Yup... This new addiction may require a change to cash though....

Always carry some cash if you can. It speaks louder than anything else, whether its a pawn shop or CL.

I always thought the craftsman nut drivers were color coded. Those must be pretty old

No, they make non color coded ones, they are cheaper and a real pain in the ***, I have a set and wrote the sizes on them with a Sharpie marker.

I find it useful to always have 2-300 dollars cash in my pocket. It speaks real loud, instant access, and no one but you and the seller knows exactly what you paid for it. Makes vague prices easier to pass off on the womenfolk. Oh that? I paid a couple of hundred dollars for that. Plus a few and an extra one. But no one is the wiser. It is also nice for those lunchtime CL scores, you can jump without going to the bank first.

Cash doesn't matter to the sorry *** pawn shops around here, they want their price nothing less. So they don't get my business.

I couldn't pass on the price... Plus Ill use them and the size I seem to need the most was there. 10mm
