I know you said you were going to put them in the classifieds soon so you may not want to disclose the price - but did you get a pretty good deal on them?

 

[Zrexxer]

They're not as loved as much as you might think... I had a set of double end flares like that and when I completed a set of the newer style, I decided to sell the older ones. They languished in the Classifieds here, never could even get an offer on them, and then I finally sold them at open auction on eBay and if I recall I got about $36 for the set.

I hope you have better success, but just sayin...

I would have gladly gave $36 for a set. I wish I would have known about them.

I've got two sets of flare wrenches: One Craftsman Professional, one set with a few Craftsman pros, the rest those Snap-ons.

For $36, I'd have kept a full set of those in my road-trip/junkyard/race box.

I've got a full set of that style flare wrench and I love them! No way I'd let them go for $36. They aren't the prettiest thing Snap On ever made, but they feel great in your hands.

wow, i looked up recent auctions on ebay...ending prices were 30 + for just one wrench...
