Another good score Andre :2tsup: What happened to the sockets?
Mike, you got a good deal their also.:2tsup:
I remember when I bought a Hercus years ago the guy said on the phone $750 and it comes with a box of tooling. When I got their (about 40 minutes) with the trailer I looked at the lathe and then asked about the tooling. He then said I want another $100 for the tooling. I questioned him about it and what he had said on the phone, but he said I could either take it or leave it, so I bought it. I think someone had phoned after me or he had spoken to someone in between time, but one of the things in the box was a new Sandvik boring bar with a pack of tips, along with a lot of new HSS, tool holders and other stuff.
It wasn't as much as you got, but I thought it was well worth the $100.
Some of the best deals come as part of a package.
