I went to an estate sale yesterday,a woman's husband passed away and he was a mechanic.Was the first one there,she was nice enough to get a stool out for me to stand on.Checked out the toolbox he had and took my offer with the tools inside.All good tools,no cheap junk.Did lock it up and she put a sold sign on it.Bought some 1963 Olds 98 parts and a parts cabinet as well,those went in the back of my truck.Went back with a trailer on the back of my truck to pick up the toolbox.A guy got me mad,called me a little runt and this lady told him to leave.Saw I have dwarfism,she knew I did not need to be treated that way.This was when I picked up the toolbox.I was glad she was on my side and told her mine is pituritary dwarfism.

Thanks for sharing. Sounds like you made a great haul! (No pun intended.) Sorry you had to endure some "horse's-behind's" ignorant comment. (Where do those sorts of people come from?) But it was nice you got some back-up. Hope the rest of your weekend is going well.

Stronglady, do you ever watch American Pickers on the History Channel. Mike and Frank would have admired your picking at the sale. Good for you.

Sorry about the arsehole who insulted you. I don't understand why people feel it's okay to be ugly to others. Good for the lady for tossing him out!

Good job on your tool finds. Wonderful!

My husband and I do a bit of antiquing and picking and junking. He sells things on at a local flea market. We've met mostly-wonderful people doing this, over the years.

Like Liz, I'm glad the woman threw his sorry butt out of there. His behavior was RUDE, ignorant, and uncalled-for.

Excellent! I'm not a collector myself, I'm a minimalist, lol. BUT my husband has been an avid book collector for 38 years. So I am no stranger to estate sales. You done good, lady!
Kudos to the woman for tossing the schmuck out. Give me a freakin' break.
