Do they have a company come in and do an estate sale or is more of a auction type?
Good score on the tools! :wink:

They do both, many estate sales are on location tag sales, some are online auction and a few are live auctions. Most of these companies also have warehouses to relocate sales. I only go to tag sales.

The Proto Professional wrenches were mostly in larger sizes I didn't have.  The large DBE wrench in the upper right corner is  Tru-Fit.  It was thrown in for free because one side is cracked.  I was really excited to find it until I saw it was broken.
