I came across this Blackhawk Tool Co. Porta-Power Cart today at an antique mall in South Seattle.
I have never seen one like it.

And of course, they were asking four times its original price (and no tools were in it).

So, if you want to sell an old tool box, just call it a "Bar Cart".

Steevo that thing's a beauty. At first glance I thought you were using it as a bar cart in your house.

I can see GJ'ers hopping in their trucks and scrambling up to Seattle now for a little haggling.

Wow! Very nice.
My old lady would kill me for bringing something like that in the house
And I'd kill her for decorating the house like that

what is wrong w/ people?
i'd go $200 to $400 for that cart, maybe more, but doughtful.
it can sit in that antique store forever for all i care. **** 'em.

maybe some dumb yuppie or hipster w/ more money than brains will buy it as a "bar cart" and they'll laugh all the way to the bank.

yes i understand running an antique shop aint cheap or easy, but c'mon!

$1800? theyre either fishing or living in a world of lollypop trees and chocolate rivers.

The people that run these are always nuts. I went to one in my area for shits and giggles and they wanted $50 for a plain kitchen chair that goodwill cannot even give away. Also went to another one in the area because they said they had tools, and holy ****, the wanted like $50 for a shoe maker hammer, $20 for a ****** metal tackle box. Pretty much yardsale leftovers for with a hefty hefty hefty mark up, no idea how they stay in business.

Mine that's close has some pretty cool older gas station signs but man they want $300-$400. Found one for $75 I almost picked up until I noticed a leaded gas sign. The same one hobby lobby sells for $10 for like $150. I wasn't sure what was real or fake so I walked away.

Weed is legal there. At 1800 bucks, they're smoking for sure.

Amazing how much those signs went up the last few years, guess to many episodes of American Pickers lol. That is a nice cart, just slightly over priced. And by slightly I mean a hell of a lot.

Exactly!

It wouldn't be a true "Antique" if it was cheap.
