FOR SALE . . . - FloridaRetiree - 12-13-2018

Like-new corded British electric screw driver and several hundred zinc plated copper screws of various sizes and lengths.

 
Since they drive on the wrong side of the road and as you may guess, this tool and the screws tighten by turning counter clockwise. 
 
Cautionary note:  You must have 011 volt electric power and an appropriate electrical wall outlet.
 
Cheers!

Who has 011 volt outlets?

I could tell this is a joke because English don't say counter-clockwise; they say anti-clockwise.

Actually, in Britain the correct term for counter-clockwise would be wimbleshins

I really thought the plated copper screws would be
the first hint that this was an attempt at humor.

Anyway, Merry Christmas to all!

How much? You need to list a price. I may be interested for my wife. She likes looking through those coin-operated telescopes from the "wrong" end.
