Depending on the size you can pay $40 for ONE new slot drill.
Perhaps the poor person who originally owned them had the honor of filing a report for break and enter at the local police station.

We don't have a Cash Converters here, But we do have a Pawn Shop.
As it's quite a small community here I am always to embarrassed to go in.

What a great score, you did well. Nothing better than buying stuff off a pawn shop where no one knows anything about and getting it for a song.
On the other hand I have been to sales where the guy knows what they are and expects 10% off new price, I just leave them where they are.
We have plenty of tool guys at the markets and they are all the same asking top money for some cleaned up rusted item they ripped off some pore widow clearing the garage out. We always have adds in the paper for tool wanted will buy full shed loads.

We have a few #### shops here but I have never been inside one of them...

millends slot drills
I certainly don't use thier services they're ripoffs charging 29% intrest on their loans. It's the first time I been to their store, wife went to shop next door so went in to kill time. We also have fellas at the weekend markets selling rusty broken worn out crap I just enquire the price about a item laugh and keep walking they're a real joke. David

I don't think anything of it when I walk into a store. There are are always some people in their and you over hear the prices they are paying for there stuff and it discusts me as they give like 5 cents to the dollar or less. Same as that TV show and those pickers on TV, just rip off merchants.
I have never pawned anything, but if I am going past I will stop in. I don't go often so every time I go everything is new to me, LOL
Years ago I used to go to the police auction, they have like a 24 hour return policy if something electrical doesn't work which is good, but like I said that was many years ago.

Looks like the forum auto robot saved you on that one. Mind you there are a few of those popping up about the place lately. I find it quite amusing as your about to drive into Geelong on the main highway there's a sexyland then a couple of hundred meters down the road, a nappyland. Both are potentially full of shiz.
