Found a lot of 8 Plomb wrenches on ebay for a BIN of $25, but the seller wanted too much for shipping. I asked if he could do better and when the shipping made it a $32 sale, I was in. None of the wrenches are cherry by any means, but they are in good to really good condition and they are all wrenches I don't have in my collection. Yes, I took a photo. Yes, they were worth $4 a piece, when you look at what the Ebay gougers want for their single wrench sales these days.....I've tracked some of those wrenches to see if they ever sell and we all know the answer to that.....
DOE's 3030 and 3932
DBE's 1145,1139, and 1135(pebble)
Combos- 1230,1226, and 1224

I don't know if shipping those wrenches can be less than 10/11 bucks the center one probably would not fit in an envelope amd all together first class would be a bear just my opinion bob w.

Having shipped a bunch of tools in the last month, I can attest to the high cost of shipping and the fact that long wrenches and speeder handles do jack up the shipping substantially when they don't fit in one of the priority USPS boxes. This seller simply passed on his Ebay shipping discount on to me. USPS is now implementing regional rates(ie less cost if the buyer is a state or two away) much like UPS has always done, at least for their high volume sellers. Not sure I'm quite in that category yet!! The killer with UPS is that $5 surcharge to go to a residence.
I added the description of the wrenches too as I forgot it the first time I posted.
