Anyone need 3/16" clecos?

Strictly speaking, this is a "for sale" post, but it's only of interest to armorers, and I'm merely passing a deal along-I'm not making any $$ on this transaction.

That said, I bought a bunch of supposed "7/32" clecos on ebay for a good price, but they had been mis-labled, and were all actually 3/16" clecos.

I already have a bunch of 3/16" clecos, so I don't need the 100 I just got.

The seller offered to buy them back, but with all the hassle, it just seemed easier on all involved to see if I could peddle them here.

They generally retail for approximately $.40 each. I paid approximately $.20 each for them, and I will resell them for the same price plus actual shipping to anyone here who wants them, in any desired quantity (up to 100).

They are standard type, clinching anything from 0 to 1/4". They are not new, and a few are a little chewed up-I won't sell the bad ones.

I don't have any pliers for sale, but you can always find a pair on ebay for about $3-$5.

If anyone's interested, email me.

I don't know if there's any chance for you to hold on to 20 of them for me until payday at the end of this week?

Crossing fingers.

Uhm.. what are clecos? And what do you do with them?

They are used to hold hold pieces of metal together temporaraliiy...sp? through a hole, like a mechanical rivet. A joy to work with.

Taltosh, no problem.

Clecos are great handy-dandy for holding pieces for fitting, marking, etc, but you really shouldn't hammer on the steel while they're in place. I find them majorly useful for projects like fitting panels into a spangen top or holding brass trim while I trim/mark/fit it.
