^ Okay, so what I want to know is:
Are those going to work if I want to do the Jason-Statham-hanging-upside-down-underneath-the-glass-bottom-swimming-pool-55-stories-above-street-level trick?
I'm ready to take out a loan here if the answer is what I want to hear.
He said he is willing to try it from the high ceiling, but I cannot get the wife to buy in.

While I'm all for buying tools, these scam sites all follow the same MO...******** prices that are just to good to be true.
Now @66HertzClone ...follow your heart...and join the DARK SIDE:

I'm thinking of what a great tension builder that would make in an action movie... the hero hanging upside-down, 55 stories above the street, watching the battery indicator go from three bars to two bars to... Tune in again next week!^ Okay, so what I want to know is:

It should be mandatory when posting a tool picture in this thread to state:
1) Manufacturer
2) What kind of tool it is
3) Hopefully a part number

Yes they are. Part # is PKSGT300 (add BG for green, BR for red, or BO for orange). I picked these because they’re lifetime warranty.
The other snap on plastic pry tools are not lifetime. I actually found out who’s making those for snap on and it’s a company called bojo tools. USA made but no lifetime warranty whether you buy from snap on or bojo. Obviously a lot cheaper to get from bojo unless you want the pictured style with a handle and lifetime warranty.
Never heard of that place before.....but yes the prices on that beautiful Vessel screwdriver set does seem way to good to be true?
Heck even all their Vessel tools pricing seems too good to be true as well!
Though I already have that specific beautiful Vessel screwdriver set but just now looking at that website and looking at their price's, etc. makes it very, very tempting!
Bottom line is....."IF IT'S TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, THAN IT MORE THAN LIKELY IS"

Yes. Biggest motivation for this is to be able to later search for things you half remember seeing.

It is.
Happy for you that you did not.
I did.
I will be receiving a new card in the mail in about 5-7 days.
Charge is "pending" on card. Looks like they tried to run it through twice.
Funny that the address above is in Reykjavik, but the confirmation email comes from a Singapore domain.
On the bright side, I discovered that Amazon has been dinging me for a monthly charge for my "Prime" account.
I don't have a "Prime" account - never signed up for such.
The nice lady at BOA took that one off. I guess Jeff Bezos can send his legal team after me now. Good luck to them.

Snap-On GFAT1E 3/8" to 1/4" industrial finish adapter
Snap-On GSAF1F 1/2" to 3/8" industrial finish adapter
Paid $140 cash on the Snap-On truck. $191.05 retail price for a 26.7% cash discount.

I hope you didn’t see my posted link and then make that purchase but found it on your own.
Agreed with the listing the part number, vendor and price if not already shown so the uncontrollable tool hoarders here can satisfy our burning desires.
I have a full set of Toptul drivers with the full shaft in the fitted tray, so I think I will sell those and replace them with the Vessel set. Then I can justify the expense

Nope. Clicked on your link, found the item, and put the order in. Only afterward did I see the following posts. I did not reply to their "order confirmation request", so maybe they'll just cancel it at their end.
The nice lady from BOA said she would give me a call in the morning with an update.
I've already been credited back for the Amazon "Prime" monthly charges.
I will have to remember to check statements from these people. Ordinarily I don't even look at them - I just look at the dollar figure and mail a check.
^ In a perfect world, every photo of a tool posted on this website would be captioned with manufacturers name and part number.
Google doesn't see photos - it only sees text.

^ Not life and death. Maybe 45 minutes of being annoyed. I'm sure I'll get it straightened out - I have very good relationships with both banks - they love me (or at least all of the interest I pay them.)
And had it not been for this, I'd still be paying Amazon a monthly fee. (Still cannot figure out how that happened - my buddy tells me that you can NOT sign up for an Amazon Prime account simply by doing my usual "fat finger" trick on the keyboard.)
I kind of feel sorry for people who have to go such lengths to make a buck. Is it really that difficult to get a real job?

I bought mine at HJE but got to handle them 1st as the store is local. Jori knew as soon as he handed me one I was leaving with a set.

Forgotten left overs from the Holidays.
Back before last Thanksgiving there was an Amazon deal with 3 Engineer tools for $50
So I bought a bunch for the holidays where we had a tray of gift wrapped Engineer stuff for guys and my Wife had a tray of gift wrapped makeup for women.
I already had quit a few of the middle pliers in various sizes.
Always wanted to try the scissors so it worked out for me.

And, ideally, a link to purchase.
Preferably, not in Iceland, apparently...
Up until now, I thought only good things came from there!

We will have to make a thread called: "Discuss your new tool purchase"
Isn't that what this is???
Otherwise, it's just a drive-by photo drop. What's the point?

It’s a really poor and inefficient format and the photos end up getting lost to time…my way, you know what is being discussed and who made it.

The significant others of GJ might want it called "Justify your tool purchase" and divorce lawyers might call it evidence.

Thankfully I don’t have to justify but I have to figure out maids efficient methods of arranging the tools and equipment in my drawers to fit all this stuff in place.
Well not a new tool but definitely a tool to move my tools.
My Klein cart is now rolling on some 48’s.
You heard that right….i got 4-8” new shoes.
The rubber tread really calms down the noise but my favorite part is the brake setup is way better gooder. The ones on the 6” casters were a pita to engage/ disengage.

We should caution other members about the inherent risk in ordering, then……..
For those after a deal who do not carefully read, they have just been exposed to financial risk. Not good.

I reported this post due to the link included and the fact that two members thus far appear to have been taken advantage of.
In my opinion, links to fraudulent online sellers should be removed because of the financial risk posed to members, many of whom are of advanced age, and without the full range of tools needed to verify if the seller and the transaction is legitimate.
I went back and deleted all the links out of every post.
