Automotive Tool Kit only £3.67 @ Wickes ** instore **


£3.67

494°

FOUND BY: danny-mac 7 months, 2 weeks ago

95 piece kit.

I saw a stack of these instore tonight and thought that they represented quite good value.

Really handy kit to have in the back of the car or even for use in the house.

Obviously not good enough for the more serious car enthusiasts.

EDIT; These are only instore, sold out online.

Thanks for that bev.

Was starting to get annoyed trying to post a pic.

I have saved the image and uploaded to imageshack. Any idea how to put the image next to the deal description? Keeps saying invalid url or the like.

Got one of these a while back , much dearer than this btw, great price , not the greatest of quality , ok for light work though
the open end of the spanners are a nightmare , got a strange notch cut out.

This is a great price.

Note that this is the same tool kit (apart from the colour) as marketed by Draper and is currently selling at £14.99 @ Amazon (with a supposed RRP of £45.59)
http://www.hotukdeals.com/item/34593...piece-automot/

Wickes have sold out online, and are sold out in some stores - but shop around and you should find one.

This is an end of line product - Wickes appear to have decided not to stock automotive parts any more - but they have some great deals on their run-out stock e.g. battery chargers, compressors (for inflating tyres), etc.

Before others get carried away dreaming of making their fortune on this item, note that according to amazon, this item weighs 3.8kg boxed. (which is probably about right)

That means postage will be almost 9 quid including signature on delivery.

Bearing in mind you can get this item (albeit branded Draper) delivered free from amazon for £14.99, why would anyone pay more?

Even if you could entice someone to pay £14.99 on ebay for this Wickes branded item (I know I would prefer Draper, especially if it was to be a gift to someone), by the time you've paid your 10% ebay fees (say 50p if you make postage £10) & paypal fees @ 3.4% + 20p (70p), that leaves about £1.15 profit
(and that doesn't include insertion fees which you'll have to pay unless you are prepared to punt it in an auction starting at 99p)
