The price of tools, hand tool especially, seem to be going up on a weekly basis. I have just been looking on Workshop Heaven, they have some Items that have jumped up in price by 4 pounds from a few weeks ago. Axminster Tool are another one, I wish my Income went up as fast.

It is not uncommon for some vendors to raise their prices a bit so that when they offer the holiday specials they make you feel better about buying at their previous regular prices. Puts you in that holiday spirit to grab it up and buy it now!
15 November 2013 at 4:36 pm #21510you’re right Ken each time Paul mentions a tecnique or tool ebay seems to go mad i think i’ll ask him to mention something i’m trying to get shut of he must be doing great for tool sales (i wonder if he’s on commission) only joking of course .
Thankfully, with vintage hand tools, second-hand doesn’t have to mean second-best. That said, I reckon eBay prices are edging up too.
I think Paul has shown you really don’t need a huge set of tools, but I’ll admit we are all ‘tool magpies’ to some extent, myself included.
