GM / Kent Moore Special Tools

Txflyer · 06-02-2009, 09:14 PM

Anyone know of a good place that buys Kent Moore Special tools? Seen a few listed on ebay but probably not the best way to unload a lot of them

i think we are just gonna keep ours not worth the hassle and we still gonna need some for working on used cars in the future

It's a great question, but given the number of dealers who are going to be selling off their tools my bet is any company offering to buy tools will probably have some real "low-ball" offers.

As you mentioned, Ebay is an option and you may want to try Craigslist. The only other thought I have would be to contact some of the local independent shops and see if they have any interest.

Try me, I buy K-M, OTC, Miller and most any other specialties (lot quantities only, dealer close-outs or consolidations preferred) in the general south-east US and may be interested beyond that.

We are keeping ours as well.

I've had decent luck selling a few to local Corvette entheusiasts, and sold a few more on eBay.

If anyone has a particular tool they are looking for, shoot me and email and make an offer. I'd just as soon get rid of 95% of them.

We sold every last one of ours in a pile. Buyer loaded them himself. $7,000 cash.

Some guy from Wisconsin. I put an ad on Craigslist and he responded within like ten minutes. I may still have his name and number if you are interested?

Yep, I'm interested. Listing them all on ebay, packing and shipping is getting to be a beyatch!
