those bins tip out and are relatively small. there are 2 shelves behind the logo. the white door flips up to reveal them.

Unless you really like the nostalgic feel of it or have small fasteners or a selection of small light bulbs to organize I would pass.

That is a fair price though if you like it or have a need for it

More or less like the oldness of it. Might snag it if the guy is close to me. Not going to drive to far of it.

Check the trays/bins carefully, the stops that keep them from opening all the way tend to break off. If that happens it will tilt all the way open and dump the contents on the floor.

I'd say yes. Take a trip to Home Depot and see if $15 will buy anything better.

:+1: I wouldn't go much more than $15, maybe $20 but depends on in person condition, size and how much I needed it at the time. Small parts bins are always handy. I have a bunch of those akro mills tiny plastic drawer bins. Usually pick them up at garage sales for ~$2 each. Great for tiny parts, screws, electrical pieces. They are not cheap new, so.... Plus that does have a certain cool factor to it.

I got one at an auction about 5 years ago completely full of light bulbs. I think I paid 15 bucks for it at the time. Even if I never use a single bulb, it looks cool, and has a million uses in a real man's garage.

I'd give $30 and pay shipping if you get it LOL. Something to put my bulbs in other than here and there.

Yes, it's "worth" the $15 . . . but hey, no reason you can't bargain for less! :evil:

Bring a couple 5's and bunch of ones . . . see what happens?? :dunno:

They don't make stuff like that anymore and you don't find it everyday. $15 I'd would have already snatched it up, I don't think you'll ever lose money on it.


Hell to be honest with you, if you can get it for fifteen, I think it's worth a YOU ****.

Actually I bought the wagner bulb assortment several years ago, and got the cabinet free. Just like that one. Unfortunatly working on all make, all models it takes several different bulb numbers to have a supply on hand. I try to keep most bulbs. They are just something that ***** to wait for the parts store to deliver.

I could use a second one, and would buy that one in a heartbeat. There are just to many bulbs that resemble each other, to not have them seperated in storage.

With vehicles the way they are, the wrong bulb will create other issues.

You can still get it today, except the bulbs are numbers that I do not need at this time. I also do not need that many for stock.
