    TRUE TEMPER BRAND axe's,hatchets,& shovels good money in em

    hi all, i recently found an old TRUE TEMPER BRAND axe head.....i sold it for around 40 bucks on ebay,,,,,,,,i was very happy.......today i was at an estate sale....i got an old shovel that is also true temper brand.....i had a hunch it may have value and they are selling stuff so cheap i had to buy it......

    sure enough a few have sold on ebay for between 30 to 100 bucks each.....i just wanted to let you all know , if you spot the true temper brand on something and the price is very low, it is definatley worth trying out...

    i spent less than 40 dollars at this sale and i got a truck and a 20 foot trailer full.....also i am working out a deal to get all the old junk metal and electronics,,,,they are going to be paying me per load to take most of it , and i am also hauling off all the garbage for 50 bucks a load.......

    ill try and get some photos up of some of the better items in the lot after while

    i also want to give a Heads up on something else.....STIHL chain saws or concrete saws,,,,also the gas powered drills or winches...all of these sell great for me....even untested and missing several parts.....for some reason the weedeater motors and parts have not sold as well as the other types of stihl parts......i pick up every stihl saw i find at my junkyard...i get em for .30c per pound...i just sold 2 partial concrete saws for 215 dollars pluss they paid shipping.......

    when i say partial saws i mean they were missing several vital parts......im sure i could have done even better if i had more knowledge of the saws...like the model , size , and knowing what to cal each part....but hey you cant beat 20x your investment profit in less than a week with an hours worth of work......

    hey now im not even mad at the guy who tried to extort free shipping from me on one of these saws the other night
