Anyone know where I can pick up a socket set from the snap on van?

In my area?

Can't find much on the net and it's always going back to ebay....

Thanks

 

go to a locle garage and ask whren he comes round

 

Why not nip to Halfords - they offer the same quality tools and the same garantee too.......

 

Naa I don't want to pay Halford prices......

I'm after a Blue point Socket set 3/8 drive.

Can anyone buy off the van? How can I contact him otherwise?

 

yeh if its cash you can get it cheeper to or they are on ebay aswell

 

Yeh you wont pay any vat if your buying cash.

 

snap on van comes to work every week let me now what you want and i can get it for you see you at next meet and will sort it out

 

Get a trade card then, I've had upto 50% off various tools and other nice things recently from Halfords

 

and this week they are doing sockets ratch and some exstensions for £99.

 

Cheers Gordon,

I after a Bluepoint 3/8 socket set 'big box' 70 pce+

Do you think Barry can get them as well?

 

The box sets are good! Very quick way to build up a good selection of tools - i didn't need to buy much more 3/8 stuff after i got mine

 

Yeah really do need a new set. I have a 1/2 socket set which is best part of 10 years old and it's missing a couple of all important sizes and I can feel the rachet is on it's way out.

So this time i'm gonna buy a qaulity one.

 

As been said nip into your local garage and ask either when he comes round or if theyve got a card with his numbers on

mark.

 

Dont buy them off ebay, they are more money than off the van, i buy bits off the van and stick them on ebay and make a nice profit from it

 

local snap on van man is kev forsyth 07957 601722 hope this is of help. he lives brandon works stanley area ,

 

Might as well buy the cheaper stuff mate .. BluePoint is not the same as Scrap-on Quality TBH .. Cromwell Tools is the place on the Team Valley ..

I havent bought any Crap-On tools for years .. I always buy CAT tools with the discount ..

Next time you see him call him Harmar Superstar

Gordon hows that old Triumph engine gettin on? Im sick of pushin the damn car in and out of our workshop

 

I'm in Washington......

 

It's a bit far out but I might give him a ring and see what he has to say mate, thanks

 

Where abouts in Washington Mike? Im in East Boldon and Darren Inchliffe comes to me. He's a top lad, very helpful too. His lass has just had a bairn so he's had a couple weeks off. I can give you his number if ya like?

 

i love the way people compare snap on to halfords professional. laughable.

as said visit the local garages in the area or keep your eyes peeled for the van they will have the name and phone numbers on the side of the dealer.

 

Ian, I live near the Vic pub not far from the Galleries. I am about 10 mins drive to Boldon, where are you in Boldon I know it quite well?

 

I agree 100% mate

Its like saying B=Q"s emulsion paint is just as good as crowns

Yes the b+q paint does the job but you wouldnt wanna use it if you were a painter by trade and used it ever day would you ( 18 coats later )

 

2nd'd.

I've broke 2 1/4 drive halfords pro ratchets after only a weeks use and no, i've not been using a bar or anything on them, just normal use and they won't cover moving parts, so as the ratchet slips it's not covered!
