Score snap on toolbox

What started as just a small upgrade to me ended as an awesome deal

I have been saving up for a new tool box. I really wanted 2 HF 40 inch boxes but im in canada after exchange cad to usd i didn't find it was such a great deal. So i decided on getting the husky 52 inch 18 drawer chest so i head home after work to take a shower and decided to check craigslist once more. i see a snapon 54inch bottom chest for 2500 for the heck of it i offer him 1500 thinking he would just delete the email 10 min later he says 1500 cash tonight. So i head over to his house and take a look at it the wheels are a bit rusty and it was advertised as a 52 but its 54inch it wont fit in my garage i tell him ill think about and call tomorrow. He seemed disappointed i wasn't taking it. He says take it for 1200 make it fit. I say let me call you in the morning so i leave. 20min later i call and say 1000 ill come back and take it right now

Well here it is my new $1000 Canadian Dollars or a about 725 US dollars

Way to deal on that box you can redo the wheels and make them look decent.

Very cool. Of course you could have bought 4 HF 44s for that, but now you don't own ****.

Nice!

Harbor freight ***** ***, move along bottom feeding halibut looking fool!
Nice box, 1000$ is a lot. What year is it anyways? Caster wheels?

Nice box, You will like it.

Nice box , bang new wheels on it and a good ol polish and remove the silly slide to open sticker, cant see why anybody leaves them on, and hey presto a spot on will last you a lifetime box

 

[Mikerodrig27]

that is an awesome deal! Congrats. I would take the wheels scuff them and spray paint them black or something. I'm not a big fan of fancy wheels on tool boxes though.

nice box

 

[countryroad82]

I'll throw a YOU ****! out for that! Those are very nice boxes.

First off, congrats. I see those for sale all the time around here, and the prices are always ridiculous compared to what I see folks buy them for on here. It's nice to see that they're not getting what they're asking, or at least not getting it quickly... Where are you?

Grease and lube

Yeah you ****.....nice score should last you a long time.

Good deal, nice box, color, drawer layout. Hope the rust is just on the wheel center cover. As mentioned, get the box off the ground, remove and go through the wheels. The plating on their wheel centers seems to be very thin. You'd probably be best to strip it all off and then paint them.

Nice score! You did good for the price and the KRL's are high quality I'm sure you'll be more then happy with it.

That's great score for $1000 CAD$ (ie $725 USD) and your tactics of . .
. . . . . ready to walk away . . . It's "too big" . . . etc . . PRICELESS !!!

YOU **** price for sure . . . congrats on lifetime box.

Finally, I do really just LOVE that blue color !!

Just curious why you wont ask the local snappy dealer to warranty the wheels?

I did this recently on my box, no cost whatsoever to me, they were are replaced with a new style supposedly heavier duty wheel, they definitely look like bro wheels which Im not crazy about but for free I couldnt complain.

 

[P51Boilermaker]

Sweet deal! Enjoy the new box. Made it fit I assume?

 

[tremek]

Yeah i just moved it to a new spot. But my original tool box location was exactly 52inch
i just forgot to mention i had another spot that was 10 feet

Thanks Guys im super happy

 

[toddacimer]

Nice box and great deal.

Awesome. Warranty those wheels. Contact Snap On customer service online. They will hook you up. I bought the same box off craigslist, plus the 791 top unit. The wheels were chewed up. Snap On sent new ones, no questions asked.

 

[Empty Pockets]

I agree.....nice box. I'm hoping to stumble on that type of deal..... Then my wife will ask me if i plan to buy more tools to fill it up.

But, of course
