I paid 3700 for a krl1023 with stainless top 2 years old. Included receipt to prove it was paid off. They go for double a krl722 does so figure around 2k for the krl722.

Prices vary from area to area. Somewhere around $2000 would be nice. Depends on condition, proximity, color.

I bought an older (75Th Anniversary Edition) KRL761 with new SS top for $1500. In my area that is pretty good. Newer KRL722s ask in the mid to low 2's and sit there week after week.

Wait for the right one or you'll be faced with trying to resell it later and that is not easy.

Had the seller talked down to $1500 but he thought I was screwing him to death. Then he demanded that I pick it up at a certin time, when I could not make it. So the hunt is back on, im not dealing with @ss hole sellers in this market.

Anywhere in the southeast to northeast $2,000 would be about the max you cound get unless you got lucky. 2k may take a few months to sell of in excelent shape. $1,500 would sell without much delay.

I've been hunting for several months. The question comes up regularly and enough folks here have been acquiring these for $1700-$2200 in mint condition. So far the only thing I've found in that condition has been a little beat up and anything mint was advertised for $3000 and up. So it's worth what you're willing to pay for it. If you want it now, $3K will get you one fairly easily. If you want it for $2K, you may have to wait and hunt like me.

Yeah, I dont mind waiting. I have a craftsman box with most all snap on it it, so storage is not a big issue to me. I would like to have a snapon box but my craftsman is getting the job done, and performance is not a issue with tool storage.

In my area most people are content with listing their boxes for 75% of retail and relisting them every other day for 3 months. I picked up a KRL761 & KRL791 (they changed the configuration of the KRL761 to have 2 full length drawers and made it the KRL722) for $1,700 but it was a little rough so I had to do some work to it. I then listed my nice (7.5 out of 10) KRL761 for $1,800 and lowered it several times over a month period finally getting $1,400 for it. It is hard to say in your area, but in mine it would take a lot of waiting to get a nice 722 for less than $2,500

Just curious for those who have purchased new boxes, how much will snap on discount one off the truck? Did the student discount apply to the KRL722 box, thus being able to buy it at 1/2 of retail?

A few months ago the KRL722 went on sale for $2999, and I think you could get another discount if you financed it through Snap-on Credit.

Thats about 1/2 of list price. Why do people want so much for used boxes then?

I know you can get a discount if you pay cash, but why would they give you MORE discount if you financed it??

They do not go on sale that often, so most people pay full price and they think they are worth almost as much as they paid.

That deal doesn't happen all the time, certain items go on sale occasionally. The KRL722 happened to go on sale a few months ago, if you buy one today they cost $5600. I understand it was a corporate discount, Snap-on sold the boxes to their dealers at a really low cost. I couldn't stroll onto the truck tomorrow and expect the same deal, that price is probably below dealer cost without the manufacturer-to-dealer discount.

Boxes get financed through Snap-on credit, normal tools get financed by the individual dealers. Sometimes they offer financing incentives, just like car manufacturers.

If you finance a $5k box through Snap-On credit (not your dealer) you pay interest, just like if you go buy a new Mustang and finance through Ford motor credit you pay interest. Late in the year if Mustang sales are stale Ford motor credit may offer an incentive of 0% interest for 24 months on Mustangs. Likewise Snap-On may run incentives of 0% interest, but this I do not know, but they certainly would not pay you to finance the box with them.

I picked up a Snapon 722 about 2 months ago. No stainless top, still in the shipping crate, brand new. Sat in a kids garage for 2 years untouched. I paid $2200. I did overpay a bit but it was the exact color i wanted and i was able to pay the kid in 4 installments over 4 months.

i'm not entirely sure what you find unbelievable? They'll give you more incentive to finance it because they plan on making that money back [and more] off the interest.

This really isnt any different than CC companies [and by extension big retailers] offering credits to sign up or 6/9/12 months no payments and/or 0% interest. They reel you in then hope you f up.

Bought a brand new krl 722 off the snappy truck on promo for $3000.00 before tax. Was this a steal? Yay or Nay, used tool boxes never come for sale in the northwestern of Canada so i just bought one new. Lifetime warranty

It sounds like for $3,000. you got a good deal for a new box. It seems that all of Snap-on boxes have gone up in the last year.

Not a half bad price. I bought mine on the same promo for $2700. I'd been trying to find the "right deal" on a used one for closer to $2000. But this one came to me (well, I actually picked it up from a driver's warehouse) and I put about half down and paid the rest off over the last 2 months on my truck account, so no interest. I could've paid cash for a slightly cheaper used one, but it would've cash-strapped me a bit. I figured I'd wasted a few hundred bucks much worse ways.

If you can't find used ones, you probably did pretty good considering everything seems to be more expensive in the great white north.

"...I know you can get a discount if you pay cash, but why would they give you MORE discount if you financed it??…"

Because they know that they'll get it all back, plus more. It's no secret that it's much better to be a lender than a borrower.

In spite of answering a 3 year old question... yup. Because for every guy who's smart and pays off Snap On Credit before the grace period to just get the discount, there's 10 or more who pay for their box over several years at double-digit interest rates, more than covering that "discount" in interest, not to mention making you a sale you might not have had otherwise.

I wonder what Snap On's (corporate, not the driver) profit margin is if the dealer pays normal cost. I know my driver told me his cost on the 722, and it was over 100% markup to MSRP... and that's if he honestly told me his cost, not "my cost plus a few hundred for me".

Paid $2500 for a 1022 after trade and rebate off the truck. Trade was just a craftsman box, gave me more then I paid for it.
