I picked up a few items today and need an opinion if I did OK with my purchases.
I have looked online but hard to tell what the actual value is for used items.
First up is this 12" Starrett Level, it was in this box so I thought it was a John Rabone Level but it looked familiar and once home noticed the name Starrett on the top of the level.
It shows Starrett Company Great Britain, guess they also made products in England as well as USA, didn't know that.
Also this Starrett 3752-12/300 Height Gage, it's missing the carbide scribing tool and holder and the batteries are dead but hopefully it works, I'll know once I change the batteries.
Paid, $100 for each item.
I also got a large parts washer (30 or 40 gallon) in pretty nice shape and a motorcycle wheel balancer, $100 each for those as well.
The guy threw in a few misc. items, which included drill rod, maybe 10-15 or so, what are they for? guess I will be doing some googling on those, a few 12mm Helicoil kits and some blocks with lots of holes in them I think they are 123 blocks or something like that and a large box of aluminum blocks and round rod 1" to 2"dia., maybe 30-40lbs total.
He was willing to include those items but I gave him another $50 for that lot as I think I did OK on the other items.
Any feedback welcome.
