If I won the lottery.

Sorry for the fast and the furious quote but

That's actually mental. I don't think I've ever seen so many tools in one place - best use I can think of is also some military-grade mechanic operation!

Hmm....he cites various sources including buying many of them himself, then at the end says he bought a workshop job lot. But *80* sets of sockets and spanners? That's just bonkers.

Seems rather odd to sell them all as one lot, he'll get nowhere near they real value.

He would make an absoulte killing if he sold those as individual sets, the moneys worth of tools there is astonishing. To me looking at those tools is as good as looking at a brand new Aston or Ferrari.

That is mesmerising, the original photo for the ad shows, what I would consider to be an incredible tool collection.....then wham!....the ad opens out to reveal the ultimate in snap-on porn. If there are 5-6, soon to qualify, apprentice mechanics out there, then a quick club together, and you're sorted. In fact depending on the final price, I bet you could make a good profit selling the collection as individual lots.
