Jay, you might have accendently stumbled onto Snooki's side business - polishing tools. And you guys in NJ have a funny name for it...

The ad says will get tools as close to new condition as possible, think if it was Snooki's business after "cleaning" the tools would likely fall apart!

Back when the economy was good a service that would do box changeovers would probably do good. The one thing I always hated about buying new boxes was the change from one box to another. My tool saleman would always do the trade and then wait until the next week to pick up my old box. He would sometimes send over a potencial buyer to look it over and most time he would have it sold before he would come to pick it up. I had a hard time getting the swaps done in a week because I was just so busy. I would end up getting it done at night. I would have gladly paid someone to clean everything up and put it in the new boxes. Most of my boxes had the same layout so it wouldn't be hard to figure out how I want things. It would have been a good way for someone with not much to do to make a few hundred dollars.
If it was a guy he would have to work naked with his balls chained to my lift, females would be subject to a cavity search

Who is Snooki and isn't $1 pretty low as cleaning off rust is hard work?

 

[DARKSCOPE001]

no I wouldnt I would use the money to buy gas or more tools. I dont usualy "clean" my tools. I will wipe them down with solvent or wd-40 ever once in a while but I dont polish them. I just put them away clean and in a working order.

Sure I love a brand new out of the box tool thats all nice and shiny and clean. But its going to get dropped, hit, stepped on, and even thrown. It will get dirty. And I find it kind of relaxing to do my own cleaning and inspection.

Just my $0.02
Thanks

snooki is from jersey shore which is a show on MTV.

As for the $1, I doubt it will actually be a dollar, he probably just put that in as craigslist sometimes makes a price mandatory to post an item so a lot of people put in $1 which is often misleading but thats probably another thread...
