Came across this used Snap On classic 78 toolbox for sale used, trying to see what it should sell for?
What is this Snap On classic 78 toolbox worth?

All I can advise is that the GarageJournal forum will get you lots of experienced answers and opinions. They are equally as looney as our great group here.
~$3,500

Reached out to the Seller and I he said the lowest he will take is $1500. I am a fan of these boxes, but not sure I can justify a $1500 luxury. No idea they are worth give or take $3500

Below is a eight year old thread on the value of these boxes. Not sure how inflation impacts current resale, or how the influx of Chinese boxes changes the value either.

Friend of mine just bought the exact same full box including all the tools from the workplace that he was at as one of the fellow mechanics passed awayfor$3,500.
Without tools and what you think it's worth I would say at least $900 to a high of maybe $1,200

Offer a grand cash (have it in your hand) and let him grind you to 1200 then walk, I bet you dont get out the door.
Prices for used boxes are all over the place, it depends on how desperate the seller is. IMO another year and it will be a buyers market just like 2008.
If they’re willing to take less than 1500 you might wanna make sure there’s no money owed on it. Snap On credit keeps tabs on them by the serial number. No big deal if you will keep it forever and at home. Maybe a big deal if you wheel it into a commercial shop or try to resell it in a few years.

Found this- not sur how legitimate it is:
Found only one used Snap on classic 78 that sold. It sold for $3,000. And on Ebay, one pays sales tax so out the door before shipping likely about $3250.

You were on target if using actual sale on Ebay.

Id take a not insignificant amount off if the stickers won't come off...
Harbor freight sells this copy. It's a very good box.

Plus for $50 more they will deliver it. Seems like a no brained to me

I like how they say over 21,500 cubic inches of space which is a tad under 12.5 cubic feet.
