Some very nice pieces there.
Some affliction isn't it? If only they could talk and tell of their experience.
The holder like that in the first Pict ($_57.jpg) go for a very nice price on Ebay.
I ended up with (8) out of an auction lot, listed (6) and was pleasantly surprised by what they fetched.
Scored a 36" Starrett height gage but just didn't have the room for it at the time and had to let it go. :(
 
Now i think back and wonder why i bought all this tuff.
:nuts:
 
I hear ya jam, I have the same problem. Seems almost everyday lately there's a little package in the mail for me! I guess there are worse things to be addicted to.

your widow will have a hell of an auction, same as mine :roflmao:
 
On occassion the wife has said, "Why don't you sell some of the 'duplicate' tools you have?" What! I do not have duplicate tools, I have spares and extras for the time, should it ever arise, when I need more than one of the same tool to do the job.

There are no duplicate tools, just tools you rescued from non-use.

I can't tell in the last photo if that is a large snap gage or not. Still a nice find and buy.
 
I'm going to try some of those lines on my wife next time she says 'don't you already have one (some) of those?'
But usually it's 'is that new? I haven't seen it before.' My standby is 'well no dear, I've had that. It's just usually in the drawer'

Actually I think you're still in the "safe" zone. It doesn't get really bad until you start accumulating multiples of the same items. (ie. don't remember you already have one so buy another) Don't bother to ask how I know this. :o
