I will bid on them as long as the price does not go too high, I thought those bottom three would have sold for sure, lost hope and did not even bother watching the auction
Always looking for what interests me, anything early Dodge Brothers/Graham Brothers trucks ( pre 1932 or so ) and slant six / Super six parts.

I really like those bottom 3. I must have been sleeping. I have several similar tools and those would look good on the wall next to what I allready have.I'll hold off seeing as 1930 saw them first but if you decide to back off due to price or whatever I sure would like for you to let me know. Thanks, Jim

Thanks for the consideration but I wait until the last few moments, I put in the highest amount I would like to pay for the item, some people call it sniping and I have heard it used in a negative context. I dont see it that way, I want the best deal I can get like anyone else and so I dont see the point of increasing the numbers slowly over time giving others the time to ponder if they would like to pay just a bit more.

If I win the item  than great, if I do not than thats OK too, feel free to bid or snipe away, it makes no difference to me, if I want an item bad enough chances are good I will win it.

Is there a number on the top combo wrench?
Like 90257 or something?

It looks like it might be a Delco wrench.

I'd surely have gotten them, but found I can have too many duplicates, if that is possible.

90257 it is!
Thanks
(Got a couple of them but wanted to check anyway.  It is from a Delco light plant)

Should I list more early 20th c. auto tools?

i'll get on it, but the last time I had only 1 bidder!

I was the winning bidder on that auction and would be interested in more of a similar type.I'm interested in Walden Worcester, Blackhawk or other makers of similar style wrenches. I would ask if you do list any more on Ebay I sure would appreciate a heads up. Thanks, Jim.

I had been wondering why the e-bay auction says 2 bidders and yet it went for opening bid ?

I suggest you guys mention if you are bidding on an auction where there is some interest here. 3 members bidding against each other doesn't seem right (only for the seller :) ) I remember when Pawpaw and I were both interested in Mossberg #14 sets the first bidder would post his max bid and then if the bidding went higher the other would jump in. As a side note I believe we both lost out to someone else on every auction.:(.

1930, 2 bids and it sold for the opening bid means the original bidder upped his own maximum bid.
