Oily, How are the toolboards looking these days? You have got to be down to just looking for left handed sockets.

No problem, Nola.  Can't take away a man's feeling that what is wanted can be had.....whether it happens or not is always a different story. :-)

Pliers, Hammers, and Pipe Wrenches are my gaps for the most part.  I was banking on those left handed sockets being in this set :-)

I fell asleep at the wheel, and missed it - was on the road traveling not thinking about the auction end.  I sure hope I have the pleasure of corresponding with the winning bidder.  I'd like to know more about that set.  It could well provide undocumented information to all of us with interest.
