That is quite an impressive collection. I would like to have a couple of them.

They have had those vises so long I'm surprised they didn't collapse that cart, They bought those vises when the Chicago High schools were ending the trade shops and buying them for next to nothing. Then the roar of the crowd came on these forums with bullets and suddenly they thought they had the Goose that laid the golden egg. They have mainly stationaries 3 1/2 and 4" and they want (5 years ago prices) . If they were smart, they should have sold them 3-4 years ago when bullet prices were high. I offered them one lump for all and never heard back. That pile is depreciating every week. They also have AAMCO machines and Baldor grinders that they want new money for. He's stubborn, he will wait until they worthless.

I looked at that guy's stuff a few years ago when I lived in Indiana still. He had quite a few ads on craigs that made it sound like a school was doing a sealed bid on shop equipment, in reality it was one guy selling a hoard of stuff at ridiculous prices.
