Thanks Levent.

Can someone clue me in on this Worthpoint thing. Is it an auction site? Says you have to sign in.

It’s not really an auction site. It’s more of a tool to estimate value. Which by my estimation is way over inflated. I only use it for pictures.

Yeah, evil bay only keeps pictures of  “sold” items on the site for so long (60-90 days?). After that you can pay to see them on Worthpoint. It’s probably a good reference if you’re gonna sell stuff to see whats its worth point is!  
Anyway it IS a wrench for the Cox Slot cars.

Thanks guys,

It's a flimsy thing stamped out of thin metal easily bent. The tip like the one in the picture above looks corroded.

I knew that Cox was into slot cars but not anything like they belted out tethers.

HO model trains too.

Usually when I post an E-Bay link, I also post a photo or two. I use the forum's upload engine URL function. On E-Bay, I click the photo on the left, which enlarges it in the full window. Then I right click, select menu item to copy the image URL. Then I paste into forum's photo upload URL and host it (uploads photo to the forum's image server), insert the server's link into my post.

Then when the E-Bay link is outdated or no longer valid, at least we still have continuity in the discussion through the photos.
