Title: XCELITE BRIEF CASE TOOL SET
Post by: ken w. on September 14, 2018, 05:00:08 PM

I picked this Xcelite brief case tool box up today at a yard sale. I almost walked away from this because the guy selling it was such a jerk. I asked whats the best he would do on the price and he went on about everyone wanting everything for nothing. He final said he would go 1/2 off the sticker. I would have been happy with 5 bucks off. But , it's a suit case tool assortment of Xcelite nut drivers , screwdrivers , hex drivers. There are doubles on screwdrivers and hex bits. It's missing the  pliers. I found the same set online for over $ 800.00. That's a lot of cash for this set. I'm not even a fan of Excelite. They always smell really bad. I'm not going to complain about this one tho.

Great score, and good on you for not giving that guy a stiff kick in the ass.
I don't understand how someone can be that way when they're trying to see their stuff.

When I have a yardsale ( having another next weekend ) I just wanna get rid if my shit, so I'll take whatever they'll give me for it.
Sure it's good to get a good lunch out of the whole deal, but I really just wanna get rid of crap so I may even throw stuff in for free just so I don't have to bring it back into the house.
