SNAP ON REPOSSESSED TOOL BOX TOUR CHECK OUT MORE BEHIND THE SCENES SNAP ON GOODNESS WITH ME JERMEY YOUR YOU TUBE SNAP ON GUY. COOL TOOL TRAY I FOUND: amzn.to/2Coo8c6 Instagram @haasltools snapchat@ jmansnappydog
Most mechs aren’t man enough for Snap On tools. All the butt hurt snowflakes complaining about Snap On prices are prime examples of who can’t handle a working man’s tools. Lol
One of the dumbest comment's I have heard in a good while. At the end of the day the customer does not care what brand tools are used to work on their vehicles. If you want to pay tool truck prices you go right ahead. That is your choice. Doesn't make a man any less if he uses any other brand tool.
I've broken almost as many Snap-On tools as I have other brands. They have good ideas on their tools, and the "finish" looks a better quality, but at the end of the day, most of their tools have the same materials and qualities as any other tools. After all, I can't hit a 1/2" drive Snap-On ratchet with a 4Lb sledge without it breaking, but I did it with a Gearwrench multiple times.
Right because the tools you use is what makes you a man. This moron is obviously trying to compensate for his overwhelming shortcomings in his pants, just another dipshit trying to justify his $30000 debt to the tool truck. All of these tool trucks are the payday lenders of the tool world, selling overpriced tools that you can get anywhere else for much cheaper and bank on idiots like comcfi to buy their crap. I use hand tool day in day out and have never stepped foot into one of these trucks....never will.
Snap on are nothing special you moron there are plenty of better tool manufacturers out there your paying for those trucks and the repo man when you buy those your no man and obviously taken in by the huge company bullshit marketing go play with your spanner set you child no doubt your work belt still looks like something pocahontas would have worn
i remember the first time i stepped foot on a snap on truck. 1995 walked off in debt with a set of wobble impact sockets. then i learned the difference between cheap tools and quality tools. now im a carpenter, but still wrench my vehicles.
First off … my respect to all those that turn a wrench for a living. A doctor works on a human body that has not changed for as long as whatever theology you subscribe to; a mechanic works on any number of makes and models that change every few months. I really dislike using a 'back in the day' reference, but memory serves I had to buy a lot of tools to keep up. I had (still have) an extensive (and expensive) collection of tools … Snap-On and 'the rest'. I turned a pretty fair wrench and was trusted by the customers in my small shop. What ruined it for me, and why I chose another path in life, was the particular customer set that invaded Boca Raton in the 70's and pretty much sucked the life out of an honest person trying to make a living. But I digress … Snap-On … the reps will let you go in to any level of debt you choose as long as you make that weekly payment. Mechanics are not stupid, but a lot of them, as this sophomoric video indicates, feel the need to own the finest (Snap-On is not) in order to deliver the finest. I saw the word 'predator' in another comment and that pretty well describes the Snap-On rep business model. What really sealed my opinion on their after-the-fact support occurred just recently. After contacting Snap-On for warranty consideration on a collection of screw drivers where the handles had all 'dissolved' over the years, I was instructed to approach one of the local trucks in my geography. I approached two of them, and as I did not show up on their customer list, I was politely shown the door. And I won't bore anyone with the old adage that Craftsman will guarantee everything for life; even with Sears out of the business, that still remains true. Yet the Craftsman screwdriver handles didn't crumble. I bought those before I could afford Snap-On. Now, me not being man enough to own 100% Snap-On, well, that's another discussion.
Repossessing boxes must be a bit of a bummer. I would'n t want that part of the job! I'm sure the guys know that you're a good guy doing a job that needs doing. If some of those warranty tools could tell a story....some look heavily abused! Love the video's you do and always watch them as soon as I get the notification. Give Tracker a pat on the head for me. Now what to microwave......
@@MikeRthe1 love how you defend this shit lol. I have stanley and milwaukee tools that i use every day for 20% of the price that aren't broken and have had for 6 years. Snap on is nothing but a fashion name brand of tools. They suck for the price.
@@boxerfan2 my mom hits the yard sales and always tells me about people selling tools. Im like take me with you! I too just get stuff from the swapmeet
Repossessed tools... Wow. I’ll stick with my “garbage” tools and toolbox that are all paid for... I could buy 4 sets of harbor freight screw drivers for the price of ONE snap on screw driver for example.
@@michaelvaus A, got it now. NTB and Firestone a both Chains/Franchises for Mechanical & Tire Services, right? Like, idk, ATU but I think they aren't well known in the USA. Sorry, I'm not from the US :o But yeah, often the younger guys with the most expensive stuff aren't that good. Thanks for the explaination.
All in all. snap on might make nice tools. But owning expesive tools doesnt make you a good mechanic. Ading too that, Id rather own cheap tools that get the job done just the same as ones 5 times the cost, spend that money i saved on buying exspensive tools on something else. These guys are just crooks taking advantage of new mechanics (or bad mechanics who buy exspensive tools too make themselves think there good mechanics) and when they realise thre not good mechanics and dont get any work or things slow down. (From what i have read) come and take everything thats got the name "snap-on" branded on it. Wether its paided for not. Im not a mechanic, even if i was. Ill stick to buying cheap tools. And spend the extra money on the specialty tools.
@matthew boyko Coming from a guy who has no mechanical experience. Wow. Until you actually get in the trade and work on multiple vehicles trucks and machines, each and every model will have a job that is an arse of place to get into, no other tool trucks or companies make the specialty tools required that get into those places better than Snap on does. In the end it saves you time makes the job faster making you more profitable as a mechanic.
I’m a mechanic and I subscribed. Couldn’t be more thankful for snap on’s warranty everytime I’m a dumbass and break a tool I don’t have to worry as I know it will be repaired
Man... it's almost like you could just buy tools that you can afford and still do your job. Home Depot has Husky tools with a Life Time Warranty for 1/10th of the price... and you can just walk in to a store to get a replacement rather than waiting for a guy to show up or mailing your stuff in.
Honestly if you work on trucks full time you would understand why using subpar tools is a no go especially on older trucks with bolts that get seized and are easily rounded… best to get the tools that make it easier to do the job and make it efficient
I've turned wrenches both as a mechanic and paint and body for 37 years. As a youngen, just starting out, I fell into the Snap On and Matco tool trap. Had to have a full box right then. But it didn't take long to figure out better ways to spend my money. As for having to be a real man to use your tools, if you ever find yourself wanting to take a trip to the North Carolina mountains, put it out there on one of your videos. I'm not a youngen anymore but I still stand 6 foot 6 and go about 260. We can shoot a video and show the world who's the real man.
I have worked in shops where the turn over rate was very high. lots of guys get very over there head fast and then poor home life/ drugs take priority over everything else I have worked with guys who would see the tool truck up the road and they would hop into a vehicle and drive out of the lot on a test drive so they wouldn't have to pay that week.
So let me get this straight. I get a box out on credit from a snapon dealer, only the box, and it gets repoed and they not only take the box that was on credit, they will take anything and everything that has snapon labels inside of it aswell??How is is even legal to assume all the "snapon" tools in the box wernt purchased by the person on his own??!! Thats plain out stealing!
I can take a tool back to home depot or harbor freight and they don't give me any crap or as stupid questions. Snap on's garbage warranty is killing their reputation.
No will will repo my box. It made with the same gauge of powder coated steel, using the same folding techniques, and using the same manufacture of those $10 drawer slides that hold a bunch of weight. I made one payment of $400. I'll leave financing a tool box to automotive mechanics. They are amongst a few categories who get conditioned by Snap-On through the college to think that these tools make them "look" better. As for efficiency, I'll take the challenge, give me an Altrade set and I'll still work circles around these guys. Air frame & Power techs are awesome, they have risen above the suckering of tools in college and peer pressure.
A lot of techs keep an EDC in their box. What is the protocol if you do a repo were the person is not present and, you find their pistol? Do you turn it in to the local police or can they pick it up with he rest of their tools?
I used to always wish Snap-on reps would be more open to stopping at residential garages. SO much business being missed. I just order right from the website any more. You used to have to wait 'til you spotted the truck at a local garage, then BEG the driver for a print catalog, then try to catch up with them to order, etc. Tons of people work on their own cars and have hobby vehicles and would be willing to buy better tools. Snap-on is still the best, though.
bodymanruss518 did you see the very end of the bar it had a slight curve almost looks like a “s” stretches. They are normally straight till the 45 bend
Awesome! The only thing I still can't get over is the intro! It's the same music from the bigger pockets podcast lol ! Still awesome stuff, I subscribed and gave a like! You can see my KRL series box in some of my videos! That bad boy and all the snap on that's inside of it is paid in full! Our rep wants me to upgrade but I've fought off the desire to keep from that payment again! No repoing going down here!
so with none snap-on tools that you guys repo in the tool you guys give them back to the customer or do you guys charge them for their none snap on tools
If you gotta buy tools on credit, put every spare cent you have towards paying it off. I personally paid off $19,000 in tools and a $9500 tool box in just under 2 years without having anything repo’d or ever missing a payment. If you want really nice things, you gotta pay the piper.
Because some twat told them snap on is the best, but... lemme tell you a secret... Craftsman has a lifetime warranty on almost all of the tools they sell for half the price. I cut my first impact in half and returned it for a new one cause I could... snap on? Yeah, nah. My tools get used and broken. Craftsman Milwaukee Everything else is trash 7 1/2 years of working on machines and cars. Nothing wrong with any of my tools Just says in
The- potato-warrior yeah except craftsman is pushing back now. 1. You don’t get new replacements anymore if they have rebuilt or refurb you get that and 2. intentional damage they send you packing. 3. It’s only on hand tools now. Back in the day you could cut that stuff or break it not anymore. You’ll see next time you go, but yes I love craftsman used it my entire life or at least last 30 years I’ve been using them anyway
Great videos, add this one to your list. Have you ever seen the A-SURE OUT extractor? It can be removed in seconds if it breaks, no Welding EDM or DRILLING. After seeing it, only a fool would use anything else! All materials and labor made in the USA! For over 100 years the bolt extractor has changed in many ways, however the failure of a bolt extractor seems to have been carelessly overlooked leaving all users the possibility of catastrophic failure. Help support an American company. Thank you.
He's nice to box up the guy's non SnapOn tools. The shop I'm at now had SnapOn and Matco guys who covered a lot of the same territory. If one of them repo's a guys box, they would call the other one to see if the guy owed them money as well.
So I can cut my snap on long pry bars or extensions in half and I can get them replaced, or was there something wrong with those? And I understand you did that so you don’t have to pay a crazy shipping fee for a long box.
So if he only owes 1k to you and you take all of his stuff and sell it all does he get the money left over or you only take the good stuff? How does that work
1 of you can’t afford the tools to be in business then your not ready to be in business 2 if a tool company has to finance tools. Then there over priced 3 why go into business in debt and or have to work to pay someone else 4 I’m not for or against snap on I care about quality longevity and warranty being taken care of properly sure there stuff is good but there is other cheaper in price manufacturers not cheaper in quality people need to know what there buying and there options These statements are coming from a person who has been in business 25 years so just be smart when it comes to buying anything and and look at your work load before you spend. Good luck 👍
I just found your channel and subbed. That's great you get to take your 4 legged buddy to wok with you everyday. Finally got hooked up with a Snap-On dealer in my area. Hadnt had one in awhile.
How long do you go before you repo a box, I bought snap on for 30 years , always made some type of payment arrangement, these guys must go months without paying
You said the other pallet has been sitting since September of 17??? What if they never come to get there tools? How long do you have to hold them till they belong to you.
Ok, cutting the tools on half doesn't bother me you do what ever you want as long as they aren't my tools lol. But what was wrong with the prybar? It didn't look damaged at all
Can anyone explain what actually makes these tool boxes better than say a husky or hf facts only like sheet metal thickness or the ball bearing sliders are made out of something special
subscribed - hey seem like a pretty cool snap on dealer, seem very level headed wish my local SO dealer was the same way. Would definitely do business with you!
You pay over $6,000 for a tool box with no tools nor tool box foam. But pay the same price to Sonic and get 263 pieces of tools and tool box foam. With lifetime warranty. Why?
Interesting vid this. Was surprised at the level of returns, interesting talk about the repo box. First time I've seen anything like that. Good honest account. Mad that you have pallets of tools uncollected!
I'm convinced the only reason snap on still exists is because of big dick energy at shops. The whole "Oh snap on is the best... if you don't have snap on you're not a real mechanic and not real man etc" meanwhile guys are going in to debt for tools they can't even afford.
Never watched you channel but I have a lot of respect for the amount of time you took to make sure you kept his stuff separated and had no intention on messing with the things he does own. I was curious if you just choose what you want to take to equal out the balance or if it was just most recently purchased items etc. you seem like a good dude good luck with the route and all
