    My company buys everything possible “used” usually selecting from photos online. Sometimes we get what we expected, sometimes less, and very rarely more. We just unpacked this older 5x3x2 foot Snap-on brand mechanic’s rolling tool chest. I checked the larger compartments then rolled up the tambour closure of the tool drawers and opened all (I thought) and found some nuts, bolts, etc, but nothing valuable. I stepped back for some reason and noticed three small drawers I had missed before because I couldn’t see them due to the angle. Opened them to find a nice bonus, lots of taps (how female threads are made,) good professional-grade Drill bits, and sleeve gauges (dunno!). Whomever at the seller’s place was told to empty the drawers was probably tall enough to miss those three little drawers. This isn’t a windfall but the value of the small stuff is probably around what we paid for the chest and shipping. Nice to win now and then!
