Members BIGGUNDOCTOR Posted July 29, 2012 Members Report Posted July 29, 2012 Good deal. As with any barganing I have doen I give the price that I can afford. It may not be what the seller wants, but it is what I can afford. Sometimes I get it, sometimes I don't. Someties the seller would prefer to see their tools go to a craftsman than going to a reseller, and will take a lower overall amount.Talking with them some, and explaining that you will be using the tools helps alot. I inherited my Mom's tools, and have added to it over the years with several purchases from folks getting out of the hobby, or selling off inherited tools. In each case we both were happy with the price I paid. Once you get it all sorted out post some pictures for us. Quote You laugh at me because I am different. I laugh at you because you are all the same.
