I understand rare, and 4" adjustables are fun, but...?!!?

And, to ad insult to injury, he wants 10 bucks to ship it!  Must be the heaviest 4 in. adjustable on the planet.

There has been a Jaguar 4 inch on Ebay forever. Probably the same one. The collectibility of a proven Jaguar tool kit wrench must be high.

I am currently selling a rusty Jaguar/Garrington open end wrench for "only" $16.50 (plus shpg).  It has 19 views and 5 people have it saved to their watch list - so, over 25% of viewers saved it.
Doesn't mean it will sell first time round.  We'll have to see.

Those same SO mugs have been on my local CL for @ $ 60.00 for quite a while now.  I think I have a Jaguar wrench somewhere in my garage.

Yeah,  I have similar incredulity when I view a single regular plierench for $40 or more.  There are several mundane sets for sale well over $50.  They aren't that rare.

This guy should know better, he has a Mid-West Tool Collectors Member logo in his listing.

Hand made end wrench with hanging hooks.

I sent him a message and he modified the listing.
