Snap on trade group?

[gumbudah]

I'm digging into a pile of snap on tools from my father in law who passed away. There are a decent number of snap on sockets, in some cases, near full sets. As I'm going through them, I've learned about the date code stamp. One thing I've always been perturbed by is buying tools, then loosing one item from the set, and never being able to get an exact replacement. Knowing that I'd have the ability to do that with snap on tools and that I've got a good set of starter stock I'm thinking I'd like to move toward snap on tools, at least for sockets, maybe box/open wrenches as well.
I've hit ebay a little, starting to fill in some of the empty spots in the racks, with some success. I was wondering if there's any crowd here, that has or would be interested in a bit more of a "trading" group?? I wouldn't mind trading with folks as opposed to selling/buying. Seems it could be a bit more collaborative, maybe a bit more fun, and minimize cashflow for both participants.
Being new to this, maybe theres a thread or two or maybe a little corner of GJ dedicated to it... don't know. Thoughts??

You might talk to this guy who started a thread earlier ...

Create a signature under your posts with the sizes and date codes you're looking for, include the fact that you are interested in trades and also create a thread in the Wanted and/or Classifieds section.

There is already a sticky for trading sockets.

Im certainly interested in talking, I have a list of what I am looking for made up but i have not finished the list of trades yet. inventorying all of this is the big challenge. I like using socket trays to work from as it saves me a lot of time looking for what i have and dont as well as what sets i'm filling and parting out.

new to snapon and trading but I have been doing it in house with the craftsman sets here for years
