I wouldn't get your hopes up too much, but hopefully I'm wrong. See them on craigs around me for $400-$1400, various US brands including Snappy. Never seem to sell.

I had a Wright 1" drive SAE set new, cheapest price I could find was $2800. Gladly took $500 when someone finally made an offer. just my experience...

From what I searched and found lowest is 500.00 prolly a great deal,there's one on ebay that sold for 750. And it looked beat up,bad.im liking it so maybe I won't try to sell it.

Make sure each piece is snap-on if you are paying on the higher end. I often see 3/4 advertised with a couple of snap-on pieces with other brands mixed in. Other brands are ok just make sure it is priced accordingly.

Classifieds here (must have 100+ posts though) or eBay.

If you sell here, you better price well below what you think its worth or it wont sell.

People have responded with what is fair already sir....responding to your thread 7 times today only seems excessive and an attempt to sell here without following rules. Sorry if wrong, but it's what it looks like.

If you decide to sell it on the net be sure and take good pictures.

People that need a 3/4 set usually need it now and have some flexibility on what they will pay, or just buy new without considering used. Everybody else is willing to wait for a cheap price.

Clean up, good picts that show any marks or engraving, take your time selling or trading.

anything over 1 1/2" in 3/4" drive is pointless and way under the torque spec. Those sets are advertised for over $1000 all the time but they only sell for $500, 800 if they are really nice

There are 2 sets listed on Craigslist here in So California. One is $1300 and the other $800. I picked up a full set of Wright 3/4" sockets with swivel, 2 extensions, breaker bar and ratchet last summer for $65. It was form 1979 and still had the packing slip in the box. Only 2 sockets had seen light use. I would not go with Snap-on. You can buy Proto and other good brands for $200 and less all day long. I picked up 2 Proto 3/4" ratchets for $15 each last year at a different swap meet. I even find smaller snap-on 3/4" drive sockets for one or 2 dollars. I can put a full set together for about $4 per socket. They are different brands and all made in the US. All my sons have sets I put together.
The snap on sets have been listed many times over the past year. They do not sell at $800

I found about six sets like this one that sold on ebay and other sites for 600 to 1000. If you can find 3/4 snap on sockets for 1 to 2 $ you could make a killing selling those,as around me I found 2 3/4 snap on sockets on craigslist for 35.00 for both and sold in less than a day.
