K Different folks, Chuck Hormer was from Indiana and more or less after the pick up peddlers. He originally started out renting a National Guard Armory, or VFW hall and advertise tool AUCTION , would hold up a crescent wrench and auction it when it sold for $3.50 would ask how many more want one for that price. Thing is they had a guy in the audience that knew what the bid had to be so they could pass them around. Very seldom di they slip up. That went on for several years and folks finally wised up so they changed to setting one of each thing out in the building they rented. You walked thru with a pad and made your order and on check-out you went out to the truck or trucks and they gave you your stuff. Lots of times you might have bought a punch/chisel set with 10 pieces in it, only to get home and find the one you got only had 6 pieces , but sometimes it went the other way. I know a guy that got in with one of the guys working the truck, he got some deals before the guy got fired. Most of the stuff was pre Harbor Freight or before HF really had a lot off stores. Most time of less quality for sure.
