My father recently passed away and he was a former automotive engineer. He’s left me with his estate of mechanics tools. I am well aware of the value of snap-on tools, but he also had a wealth of Proto, Vulcan and SK tools. I literally have hundreds of sockets, standard, deep wells; wrenches, standard, angle and combination; drivers, etc. Although my husband is an avid wood worker, we really have little need for the amount and type of tools my dad had. I would like to have a better understanding of the value of these other brands as compared to Snap-on. Surely, many of them are quite old and are probably between 20 and 40 years old and some in better shape than others, but I really can’t bear to sell these at a garage sale and am looking to sell them privately or via an auction house. Can anyone who is familiar with tools give me an idea of their relative value (ie, crap versus something someone would pay for). …as a ball park for example, what would you pay for a set of used deep well sockets ranging from 1/4" to 2"?

BBB Flooded With Complaints On 2 Auto Auction Sites
Stars-Automart, Autoaven Sent Cease And Desist Letters
POSTED: 12:41 pm MDT August 11, 2009
DENVER — The Denver office of the Better Business Bureau said its telephone helpline has been jammed with calls from people across the country who are asking about two auto sales Web sites that claim to be headquartered in Denver.
According to the BBB, calls have been nonstop and the BBB has sent a "cease and desist" notice regarding trademark infringement to the company because of a fake BBB report the sites link to that falsely shows the company with an A+ rating.
The two Web sites list one physical address as 10701 W. Sixth Ave, but that address actually belongs to BBB Accredited business, Automotive Avenues, Inc. Another link goes to 3925 Monaco Parkway, which actually belongs to Cintas Document Management — a paper shredding company.
The two Web sites, www.stars-automart.com and www.autoaven.com, claim to offer sales of repossessed vehicles.
The BBB said customers complain that once a majority payment is sent via MoneyGram to a Denver address, the company ceases communication. The company has not responded to the BBB.
An Internet check shows the two domain names are registered to a private registration company in Sunnyvale, Calif.
The BBB said it sent out the warning because on-delivery and Internet auction fraud were the top two complained-about fraud types at the Internet Crime Complaint Center.
"The BBB takes complaints very seriously and does not want any more consumers to be victimized," a news release stated.
TheDenverChannel attempted to contact the Web sites without success. The phone number listed on the site goes to a recording, which suggests callers contact them by e-mail. The same section of the stars-automart.com Web site lists a James Stewart as the owner.
To protect from online scams, the BBB has the following suggestions:
• Verify any organization credentials with the organization directly, (BBB, AutoTrader, Consumer Reports logos, etc.)
• Check the company’s BBB report at www.denver.bbb.org or by calling 303-758-2100. Only do business online with websites you are familiar with and that have a positive track record.
• Make sure the website has a privacy policy. It will contain agreements on how the information you provide on the website will be used and kept private and secure. Print this and keep it in your records.
• The privacy policy may also contain the company’s mailing address. Only do business with companies that provide a sure method of contact, should something go wrong.
• Do not wire transfer any payment. Wired funds cannot be traced and therefore cannot be recovered if you are a victim of fraud.
• If you have become a victim of fraud, contact your BBB and the Internet Crime Complaint Center at www.ic3.gov to file a complaint.
Please dont fall for this and report them to law enforcement
hopefully yahoo will prevent all the pro scammers from entering data on this site.
I am only trying to warn people that the scammers come on yahoo and say that they are a good company when they are a scam. If you feel that this is wrong to post this information please send me an email
N
I am one of those idiots who fell for the scam. Then the scammers come on YA and tell what a good deal it is. All I’m trying to do is prevent others form becoming and idiot

if you were scammed report it to your local police. Make an IC3.com complaint. Call your attny General and file a complaint. Send a notice to the secret service and try to get them to investigate. Get your local police to contact interpol. If you don’t hear anything within 4 weeks call your congressman. We will not get any money back but we will shut these guys down and prevent it from happening again
