I was in the right place at the right time. I stoped at a yard sale last Sat. I got both tool boxes for $150 total.

They have a line of cheaper boxes, I bought a set of them for my godson for Christmas, you won't get these for under 700 bucks. Not that it realy matters but these are simalar boxes http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_1...s+%26+Cabinets http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_1...s+%26+Cabinets

Without even knowing the exact size or brand, I'd say you got a great buy!

That is a great deal for a 24 drawer toolbox. Usually the more drawers the more expensive.

Hey man, you paid what you thought was a good price at the time. That makes it a good deal for you. Others may have stumbled onto a "better" deal, but it was right for you and that is that.
Extreme bargain hunting is as futile as striving to have the fastest vehicle or be the "toughest" man........there is always someone faster or stronger than you. Always.
