I'm looking at getting some better quality tools. Snap-On is too expensive and I'm trying to find out what you all are using. Thanks for your time.
I take time to hit Garage sales for tools.. much cheaper by the dozen than buying from Snapon or mac. I usually find that some garage sales , there could of been a mechanic thats had enough and cannot do the work anymore and they have specialty items that could be handy in repairs on the car at home..
I dont mind pawn shop stuff.. but they seem to ask 75% of new.. for well used.. I would rather take the time to hunt in G sales and give the money to the moms and dads that could really use the money.. pawn shops here are crooks and play they I gave to much to sell cheap card..Pawn Shops around here have snap on stuff regular. I have left my card with a couple shops and gotton calls . Craigs list also has full boxes full regular like.
$50 ? HA, try $100-$200 !Why spend 50 dollars for a ratchet when a 12 dollar one can do the same
lol Then I stand corrected.. Who buys these things? I guess professional mechanics that have to have a bigger better tool box than the other guy. You know what they say about guys in Ferrari's well maybe that crosses over into tools too. I buy what I can afford. I have had the same S-K ratchet for 10 years I found it in the middle of the street along with all the sockets. The only Snapon I have is a ratchet I found in a car at the junkyard years and years ago.$50 ? HA, try $100-$200 !
Beep, for a pro the 10yrs is a couple yrs, that’s why we buy the best so we can trade-in for a replacement & that’s where the extra money goes for.lol Then I stand corrected.. Who buys these things?
