Default WTB Tool Chest

My current set up is too small, pretty beat too.

Looking for newer chest, intermediate and top box. I've been checking Craigslist, but its mostly out-of-work mechanics thinking their Snap-on box is actually still worth $3800.00.

Let me know what you have, local preferred but will throw cash for shipping if its the right box!

+1 Snap On is going to cost you $$$ whether it's used or new. People that buy Snap-On usually take great care of their stuff as well since it is expensive, not to mention it has a lifetime warranty that comes to you (Snap On truck). There is a reason it's expensive, you have to pay for the best. If you are just getting a box for your garage to occasionally use I would go to Home Depot/Lowes and pick up a "generic" brand, just make sure it's ball bearing on the drawers.

If you are bent on getting a Snap On you should find the local dealer and see what used boxes he has, they get alot of box's on repo/trade in and let them go cheap (relative term).
