Amazon has some sellers with crazy pricing at the moment, there will be others. It is either to get reviews or some kind of minimum sales quota to stay in prime? I dont understand it as its not just prime.

Crimper and crimps set should be here tomorrow, £4 by hermes

Today this arrived from the USA

 

[MattF]

What is it?

 

[MattF]

Came through last week, but only got round to opening it yesterday.



Hallmark metric ⅜" impact sockets.

Annoyingly, can't seem to find out if they do an imperial set too. Be nice to cover both.

 

[Hood]

What is it?

100amp plasma machine torch. New style with quick release head, so no need to replace/remove lead if the head gets damaged and needs replaced.

Two Parker Rectus 21 couplings from eBay.



Except, as the eagle eyed amongst you make have spotted, they're not - they're Kee couplings.

Am I being OTT / OCD in raising an eBay return as they're not as advertised; have bought from this seller before and they've supplied genuine Parker fittings before?

 

[Arc Tourist]

I would return, as the add stipulated genuine parts, the brand, and stating "Still the Best".

Seller has messaged me and someone else picked the wrong parts in his (COVID related) absence; sound like he's going to replace them with the Parker ones so all good!
