DealExtreme lockpickset??

Postby wouternet » 21 Oct 2008 12:13

I picked today my first lock with paperclips, and it was very hard because they bend very easy. and i saw on DL a nice pickset for 6 dollar. But my parents aren't really agreaing with my new hobby. (they think that i want to be a Burgelar) the code is :sku . Is there anybody with any expierince with this stuff? or any other basic set for max 30 dollar including shipping to the Netherlands. (Holland). It would be nice if it came with a nice etui or case...

Very thanks for the people who are so nice to post

sincerely,
Wouter-net

DX isn't exactly known for selling quality stuff... so you will probably get what you pay for.

When you get them, post back and say how good or bad they are. The reviews on them say that they are decent, but i have a hard time believing that...

How's the quality? Cos the 8-disc Tibbe pick tool looks tempting.
