Whatever you do don't get brake cleaner anywhere near that green handle. I did on my new handle for my 1/2 in ratchet it immediately melted off the snap on logo and seemed to "melt" the handle just a bit. Sorry to get off course just a warning from somebody who learned the hard way

That seller HAS to be buying from the truck strictly for resale...some of those bids go pretty high.

pretty risky if that's the case, if the items are bought at or around retail. Most of her auctions start at $0.99 or $5.00. Seen quite a few of that seller's listings go for below retail. Must be getting a good discount somewhere along the line. She always seems to have the latest and greatest stuff though!

They do have a truck. Husband drives, she sells on the bay. If you only knew what dealers pay for the tools. You would sheet ur pants and be :drool: all the way to the snappy line to fill out an application to be a driver :lol_hitti

If you knew the expenses a driver has, you might not be running as fast to sign up. Between the truck, fuel, maint, insurance, collecting on deadbeats, promo items, tool bills and interest, most of them don't make as much as you think.

If you're selling everything on Ebay you don't have any fuel, or maintenance costs :p

And when they get caught by Snap-on, they will loose their franchise. That breaks a LOT of franchise rules and is not allowed. I'm not saying guys don't buy from their dealer and resell them (one guy bought almost all of the pink and yellow froom mine just to resell on the bay) but they don't get them at cost.

They are fancy pipe wrenches that put a death grip on pipes, shafts, tie rods, lock rings, damaged nuts or bolts, anything that needs turned and is happy where it's at. You could drive a post in the ground and turn the planet with these. :rocker:
