Wright 3/4" drive socket set

[alex71]

Picked this up today for $150. Sockets from 7/8" to 2", two extensions, ratchet and sliding T handle, in metal case. Tools are in good shape...

Not something I really need too often, but they'll come in handy once in a while.

What do you guys think, did I get an OK deal?

Great buy.

 

[alex71]

Not bad, I guess. Here's a place that has it for a bit over $550. Same exact set.

Super Deal,I was just going to mention they sell at about the 500 mark. I actually won a set like these on EBAY for around $125 but my wife screwed over my account(long story) and i couldn't complete the transaction.

good deal. Some people hold out on 3/4 sets, some think "nobody needs these" and list low. Nice find.

Thanks Toolmutt! Just ordered a set. $6.00 a socket, thats getting down with HF prices. I'm assuming that Armstrong is still US Made.

Thanks for that tip! I have a full set of Proto 3/4 dr SAE, but I had zero 3/4 dr metrics. I just can't help myself at those prices for US made sockets, I ordered a set too. Nice find to the OP on the Wrights, also!

 

[alex71]

I couldn't resist that either. now I have a full SAE/Metric 3/4" drive set that I will almost never use

Just a sucker for a bargain I guess!

Me too! Mostly work on older farm and heavy eqpt. with my sae 3/4" sets, but they'll come a day we will need our 3/4" mm set and we'll have em. If I only use them once or twice they will be worth it.

Thank you for the heads up. That's a great price. I tried to order a set late last night but the Sears site was down for maint, so I got up at the crack of dawn this morning and ordered a set coming.

Yes, good ol' USA. And the set includes two storage rails, also.

 

[Zrexxer]

The big ol' billiard-ball size marking on the side ain't my FAVORITE thing about them, but I guess at my age with bad eyes I ought to be grateful... now to get one of them remote controls for the TV with those BIG buttons...

 

[sladei]

I ordered a set too. Don't even have a 3/4 ratchet yet... That price can't be beat.
