Big cheap tool boxes.

You have to very careful when buying a box like that so cheap. Good chance he still owes on it .

I would ask for the serial numbers, then call your local snap on guy and have him make sure it’s legit.
That's not your problem..... That's his.
:deal:
 
Yeah that's an old wives tale that Snap on can snatch a box from you because someone else owes on it. Snap on credit is unsecured.

Unless something has changed Snap-On Credit is secured , the box and tools are collateral. They can and do repo boxes and tools all the time .
 
I was told, within the last month, by two snap on dealers this is not the case. I've never seen a tool dealer walk into a shop and start running numbers on boxes. The dealer I have now gives zero ****s about where my box came from. They take boxes back, but they don't repossess them. Then they take them back, they are "buying back" the tool box and or tools for what you owe on the account. I know this because i been there before. They do this and the loan is marked as paid in full and everyone is happy.

Our Dealer litterally just repoed a box for non-payment from a guy here at work . He boxed up all the guys Personel tools that were not collateral. And left them in place of where the box had sat.

I have never bought a new box on credit. All of mine have come off the truck as Repo’s and I paid cash ,For basically balance owed .

There used to be a member here that was a Snap-on rep. I’d be curious to know more about this.

Obviously it can be different state by state .

In Alaska , ATV’s and Snowmobiles do not have titles . Yet you can still get secured loans against them . So if you buy one you have to make sure the bank doesn’t hold a lien on them . Because they won’t care about your bill of sale they want their collateral back.
 
Back in when I was in a shop i bought tools from coworkers before that they still owed on. As the guy made his rounds he knew my tool came from this or that guy while they stilled owed on the account.
Who cares.
As far as the tool box goes. People are stupid. Maybe all he owes is the 5k he's asking for it and just wants to get out from under it since he's switched jobs.
Speculation. But it happens.
 
Due diligence is all I’m saying , if it seems to be to good a deal it usually is.

What you saw was either agreed upon by both parties, or theft.

You may want to read your Snap-On credit agreement if you have one , ( I don’t , I have an RA on the truck that I don’t use ) because the stuff I have seen and read say something different.

Show me, in snap-On's writing, where it says that they can come take your shit.

I can’t , because I don’t have an Account with them .


But since we are going down that road , how about you show me where it says they can’t come and get your shit???
 
calm down boy's it is what it is . if you each pay your own bills no one is taking anything . and if you buy a used box how are they going to track it ?

more tool porn less talky :deal:
