Check out these buy-it-now prices on

the king of PIDG terminal service tools.



I'm all fixed up with tools or I'd buy them.

I purchased one from the same individual last week for $121.   He seems to

have quite a few of these.  It's interesting that the purchase now prices

are different.  I wonder if the differences are due to quality or shape of

the tools, or simply market demands.  I guess I'll never know the answer to

that question.   



One recommendation that I would make is to search the completed sales to see

what price the previous sales concluded with.  Since Thanksgiving, this tool

has gone for as low as $52 to a high of $159.  Hmmm, I wonder if the recent

price surge are those of us from the Columbus seminar bidding against each

other?



There also appears to be quite a few Daniels AFM8 available as well.  I was

also able to pick one up with the K13 positioner too.

   Given that the new price of this tool is on the order of

   $600, anything substantially less is a deal. I paid $25

   for the first one I bought in 1962 and paid $75 for AMP

   to refurbish it. The last one I got off Ebay was $150

   and I was very pleased to acquire it for that.

   Could be. That's called a free-market, supplier-consumer relationship.

   That's a premier tool for the task. I've not had occasion

   to seek replacement for the machined pin application tools

   I've had for a number of years . . . but the range of

   going rates on ebay have been very attractive.
