If you are bidding on hand tools within E-bay or even elsewhere be aware that there are some unscrupulous people selling tools which really are not capable of doing the work they are advertised for.
Some items are: Saw blades that snap upon use.
Sockets / spanners that crack when used
Screwdrivers which twist and/or break when used.
Be aware that ANY tools sold must be fit for the purpose for which they are sold.
If you do buy sub-standard items discuss it with the seller before taking any other action.Keep receipts and take photos of the damaged tool.
Above all - be careful !!
