At least that is how it sometimes looks.

You know the feeling, you've just spotted what could be a bargain, when someone else sees it too, then the price begins it's slow march upwards.

I was bidding on a second hand case for my ratchet screwdriver and bits.

When I got outbid, I thought I'd check how much a new one is:

It's cheaper than the second hand one once the postage is added :rolleyes:

I'll just get my Snap-on man to get me one :D :D
