I know, but I had already paid for the MG325G and days later was told it was discontinued. Just bummed out. I'm hoping he'll take care of me and swap out the red one for a metal flake black one.

Saw the Metal Flake Black one w/Gold Trim the other day...not a fan myself...but it is a nice piece.

FWIW, the Green 325's and 725's come and go...couple months ago I could have gotten the 325G but not the 725G (I was lookin for a 1/2")...now you can get the 725 but not the 325...if you really want the green one, just wait a few months.
I can only suspect they don't run Green all the time in the factory, Red is normal and then every once in a while they do up a batch of Green ones and whatever other special colors they feel like that week.

Damn you! I've been wanting those in green, I had to Settle for the red ones from my dealer only because they are awesome stripper crimpers.

I didn't even know they made these in green. Went to pick up the blue hard handles and saw this new arrival laying there. Couldn't say no.

Traded in some tools the other day on the truck and walked away with some new stuff. The only other things in SO red that I have is the Mini Pick Set, FH80 with comfort grip (which will be getting a green hard handle ASAP!) and the ratcheting screw driver as seen. He had a 1/4 ratcheting in green, but I figured the bit version would be more versatile. We will see how the collection moves from here...

On with the pictures;

Used them today and really liked the bits. I traded in some older black hard handle pry bars and screw drivers and have been enjoying the new Instinct handles. I was planing on getting the 8 piece with the two stubbys, but I have a ratcheting stubby and some Grey Canada phillips and flat head, so I'll make due.

Hah, it was not as bad as you think. Traded in some USA, Canada and Japanese tools to help ease the $$$. I made the decision to sell my SAE sets in 3/8 (6 pt and 12 pt shallow and deep. If a 1/4 won't do or a 1/2 impact can't do the job... oh well. Still have a 1/2 Flex Head comfort grip coming to me and a 3/8 set of metric hex sockets :)

The roto head compliments my FH80 really well. Yes, the tire pressure gauge was needed. Filling with a chuck then taking my Blue Point stand alone gauge and checking it two or three times to get pressure was getting really old.

What got me on that gauge is that it can bleed pressure at the push of the button pretty good.the other blue point gauge I had was nice with a big round needle gauge but couldn't drop pressures in a tire, I would have to pull off and use a pocket screw driver nd recheck.that one fixes everything.

Can you could briefly explain how the trade in works?
that box goes for like 1600, how much did you originally pay for your cart, that you traded in?
How much did the Snap On guy take off of the 1600?

Thank you, I appreciate it.

I already had a Blue Point KRBCSST in blue. If I remember correctly I think I paid $410 brand new, my SO guy made me a deal. As far as trading in, he gave me $350 credit on it towards my new service cart. Also all SO boxes are on major sale right now, well til the end of the month. So 1600 - 350 = $1250 for my new one. My old Blue Point was hardly used, one minor ding on it. All said and done I can't wait for it to get here, got a lot of new green tools to put in it. Hope this helps.

Would you possibly be interested in selling these? Been looking for a pair for some time.

Your snap on guy can order the green strippers. They are in stock. I just bought a set for 42 new. If you don't have a dealer, the website has them. Just put a "g" at the end of the part number and search for them.

I don't have a single Green colored tool in my tool boxes. But, thanks to everybody who posted their Green related tools and boxes. Very nice!
