I scored a couple of items yesterday. :D

Micrometers by Mitutoyo, Brown & Sharp, Starrett, and Moore & Wright. (Yes, that's a Mitutoyo thread micrometer!!!)
And a Mitutoyo 13" gauge standard (don't know what I'm going to use this for).

Sandvik threading inserts, Sandvik solid carbide boring bars, solid carbide internal groove bars, carbide ball endmills, Dormer HSS countersink.

Wow. Good score. Many shekels worth of instruments & tooling there. The Mitutoyo thread mic looks a bit suspicious though, you should send that one to me & recoup some of your purchase price LOL. (That is a rare find. I gave up looking for used one years ago, they are sooo expensive - usually without anvils, metric, abused... ultimately bought a Shars digital).

Yeah, it was a great find. The seller buys tools from auctions and sells them on Marketplace. He placed the ad a couple hrs before I saw it, and I jumped on it.
