So, to make a long story short, I'm pretty well known for coming up with brand new old stock Snappy stuff. For about a year I've been telling people on here that I have 2 dealers in my area that have been in the game FOREVER, and have huge stockpiles of stuff in storage buildings, but won't allow anyone access to any of it for any reason. So, after 13 years of paying cash for every single snappy transaction I've ever had (I'm not even in either of their computers), one of the 2 finally broke down and just called me to come over tonight and go through his old inventory. He's not the one with the very best old stuff, but he has been in the business for around 30 years, and I'm sure will have some pretty great stuff. I'm not sure what, if any, will be tools; However, he told me that he has kept pretty much all of his promo stuff since the dawn of time.

SO, I'm posting this to let everyone know that if there is something promo related that you're dying to have, please PM me. I'll take pics with my mental camera (I'm sure he won't like me taking actual pics). Also, please, when you PM me, give me a price you'll pay. I'll make an offer to him if it's something I'm not already purchasing. For those of you that are dying to have an old snap-on gas pump display cabinet, he has 3 :) All are returning home with me tonight.

I will be heading over to his warehouse in an hour, and will continually check my smartphone. I know this is last notice, but I can always go back later and get more.

Sorry, guys...I guess I wasn't clear on this one....I was on a PROMO item search this time....He took me to the Promo item garage, I'll ask about old tools next. It's really my other dealer that is hoarding 20 year old snap-on tools; this dealer is hoarding promo items. I went through about 1000 bucks in 5 minutes, so once that stuff is sold, I'll go back for more. I mean, who has brand new snappy fooseball tables and "Table baseball" whatever the heck that is?

I already sold some stuff off, I did come home with the snap on gas pumps. AWESOME to say the least. He also had a half dozen snappy BBQ kits, so I bought all of those as well....these are the deluxe ones with the corn holders and salt and pepper shakers, etc. Here come some generic pics stolen from the interwebs...

I would take 150 plus shipping per set...I've already sold 2. As for the pumps, I'm keeping one, and 2 are on hold. I don't have exact measurements, but the box was roughly 4 feet tall, and the globe on top would bring it up to about 5 feet just by guestimating. No cash has exchanged hands yet on the pumps, so if one falls through, I can let you know.

I haven't run across that yet, but it's definitely cool. If he has them, I will get them for sure.

Dang! I forgot to ask about the salt and pepper shakers! (I want those, too.) I'll ask on the next run. I had about 25 razors 6 months ago....they sold like hotcakes! I'll ask, but I don't think he has anymore. I bought his entire supply when they were on the trucks....

Here's a list of more stuff I picked up:

Soft rubber Koozies in the shape of a football (they seem really well made for a koozie) I have 24 of those

Aluminum waterbottles (6)

mini KRL1022 tool boxes that are actually business card holders. I have 1 each in red, black, blue, or orange

snap-on mini baseball bats (have 9)

As for other stuff that I CAN get, but didn't; tons of t-shirts, coats, backpacks, sweatshirts, hats, glomad stuff, die-cast, snap-on shop dioramas, the list goes on.... If anything is of interest to anyone, let me know. I'm moving the first big lot of stuff, then going back for more.

I'd be interested in the barbeque sets w/ the corn holders and S&P shakers.

Please advise of availability and price.

Also, any of the beach towels.

Thanks

Here's something else I picked up and didn't realize was worth money...I almost used it as a daily clock:

The last one sold on ebay for 63 plus shipping...I'd take 55 shipped if someone wants it. I just put the battery in and it functions perfectly.

Also, if anyone is in Iowa, or near my area, I'd make you a GREAT deal on a snap-on Gas pump; I really don't want to ship it and have any problems, so if someone is willing to pick up, let me know!

I have one of those sitting over at my super secret special dealer's place...I'm just trying to finish up my firepit area, and then I'll be picking it up. I'm not much of a cook, but I'll learn!
