how is sears going to know if you broke a socket while working in a shop? unless you tell them...and i doubt they would care.

IMO the difference between the Snap-On, MAC, Matco compared to craftsman are their unique specialty tools. other than the tool truck comes to the shop.

a craftsman wrench will turn the bolt just like a snap-on wrench. if the craftsman wrench breaks then i bring it back to sears on a sunday and get a new one. if the snap on one breaks i'm going to have to hunt down my local Snap-on guy during the week.

stanley back in the day made some decent stuff..but now some of their tools are not all that.

best to stay with a US made tool set that carries a lifetime warranty.
