    I don't understand your question and you're pulling your Scotty crap again by claiming I said something that I never said. I NEVER said they break "all the time"

    Here's what I said:

    "Craftsman sockets suck and break far more often than Snap-On sockets" and that's a true statement.

    "far more often" is completely different from your false "all the time" claim so please, knock it off.......

    When I've brought the broken ones back to Sears and got replacements, they've broken too. And I'm not using them improperly, they break because they suck. I've never broken a Snap-On socket.

    Your Craftsman to Snap-On socket set comparison is apples to oranges (you cited Snap-On DEEP sockets and Craftsman REGULAR sockets and for someone like you who claims you know better, you're either not anywhere near as smart as you're trying to lead us all to believe or you are that smart and your deliberately misleading us. Either way you're wrong and irresponsible), and you're real vague on the tool CHEST (not "tools" but "tools chest") comparison so that's not valid either, try again.

    Geez, talk about someone who "likes to argue" you've gotten to the point where you're not even arguing rationally, you're just arguing for the sake of arguing and you're losing.

    Yeah, I did have the wrong link. Sorry, then compare $258/$29.99 = 8.6 more apples

    I'm also sorry that you can't consider that I may have a point, that Snap-on tools may not cost THAT MUCH MORE to produce, but their prices reflect a measurable increase in quality, proprietary design cost, distribution & marketing.

    Do you feel their prices are justified, and if so, why don't you just order directly from the website, or have your bro pick you up tools off the snappy truck?

    I feel their prices are justified but if I can get them cheaper somewhere else, then I do. I have regular access to a Snap-On truck and sometimes I buy tools at full retail plus tax directly from him, what's your point?

    I think their tools do indeed cost more to produce since they are made in the USA instead of China or some third world country. Same thing with the work boots I buy, I buy Danner's that are made in the USA and they cost $350.00 Yep, there are also Danner's that are made in China that only cost $200.00 but they are significantly lower quality then the ones made here in the USA.

    And once again, you still are either too stupid to see that the new link for the socket set you provided is NOT the same and the link to the Craftsman set you referenced because the Snap On set goes up to 1 1/8" and the Craftsman one only goes up to 15/16" OR you're deliberately still comparing apples to oranges figuring no one will bother to see if your pulling you "apples to oranges" comparison again (which you are), so please be truthful from now on if that's at all possible for you, okay? Thanks in advance.
