    Oh yeah...that's a really bad problem you've got on your hands there...we're all really sorry for you.

    I'd gladly help if I was in your town!

    Crap. I just got a call back from this seller, and my bid ($250) was his highest. Now I have to load the thing, and maybe worse, I have to explain to my wife what I bought...

    wait til she's out grocery shopping, then just bring it home, nice and quiet, don't say a word. she'll never notice it

    If she says you can't keep it you can store it at my place.

    The price of brakes and shears are inversely proportional to the size. 24" DiAcro tools (ie. easy basement size) routinely sell for up to a grand. Hulking 72" tools often go for scrap value.

    I found a matched pair of the 24" DiAcros on CL about 5 miles from home. The guy was a bit of a prick doing the "first one here with cash gets 'em" deal, but ultimately I prevailed and got the pair for $700. I scored the matching notcher for $350 including shipping on eBay.

    I don't use them terribly often, but when they're needed they're awesome.
