This guy died because he got tangled up in a rope and couldn't decide which tool to use to cut himself free.
Okay okay I just made that up.

I'm guessing that this guy sold at fairs and flea markets. Nothing looked used. Looks like he had a shop, but that is way too many duplicates. What would you ever do with all those tool bags?

Boy, s/he sure worried about having enough hammers.

When I see an ad with descriptions like "top quality" & "high dollar items", I know that the estate sale operator has an inflated idea about the value of used modern tools. I'll bet they are all overpriced, and there won't be any reasonable prices until late Sunday afternoon when they are trying to unload everything.

I'm sorry but I have never had much luck at estate sales that were professionally run. Much better luck finding good deals at flea markets or small homeowner run tag sales.

I hope in this case that I'm wrong. There looks to be some nice stuff there.
