Set of 9 metric spanners for less than 3 quid
Set of 9 metric spanners for less than 3 quid
9 PIECE METRIC SPANNER SET NEW on eBay (end time 20-Feb-11 16:30:38 GMT)
1,569 people and counting have bought a set. Anyone on here? Are they made of cheesy chocolate?

I'll let you know when they arrive.
Can always use them for loosening but not damaging Camembert bolts.

Don't think I'll bother. You seen the feedback? 
It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......

98.7% positive? Doesn't seem too bad to me; if you process that amount of transactions you are certain to attract a good number of militant
eBay idiots.
However, cheese spanners are not worth the money. They will inevitably fail when you most need them, and if they don't snap and impale you the
chrome will probably flake and lacerate your hands.

Buy cheap, buy many times over.
Learnt the hard way
But saying that i managed to expand my 13mm open end to 14mm due to over use in 3 years, it had a hard life

Arrived today.
Not as pretty as my Teng ones, and certainly at the budget end of things, but seem fine.

Mine arrived:
Seems probably rejects since the crank isn't the same way on each spanner (if you look at picture they all crank towards camera but the writing
on the shaft shows different ways around). No biggie!
