Went to an "inside the house" yard sale this morning in Angleton, TX. Did I find the Holy Grail of Snap On ratchets? I gathered up a pile of tools, including a Victor rosebud, a Proto 1/4" breaker, a set of Proto Allen sockets, and this little, unremarkable, Snap On ratchet.

I asked the guy how much? He says $1 for the lot. I was so astonished, that he immediately says, "ok $2." Incredible! I get back to my truck and go to eBay to see what is going on with this little ratchet. Turns out it's a rare, 9/32" drive and sells for between $100 and $150. There are a couple on there listed for anywhere from $250 to $499. And it doesn't even fit normal drive sockets! Snap On guy is crazy.
