Anyone want to sell me a Spring Compressor

I'm not interested in renting, I'll have a lot of use for it.

That is the cheapest I have seen one on E-bay, usually they are $200 with the shipping.

I found a used one for $75 off CL, when I got there to pick it up, it had never been used. The guy had a 124 Diesel, then sold it because of a fuel leak and bought a BMW. Then whished he had kept the MB later on.

Nope...it isn`t for sale. Nice to have it when I need it though. Can`t have too many tools.

I was about to say they're only $150 shipped on eBay these days lol...

I still borrow though, a local Indy mechanic lends me his on the weekend for free.

Further ahead to buy new and get the free delivery for a little more.

Yep. I didn't read the ad thoroughly. It comes out to about the same price as the first one posted.
