    This was the first reply to your thread. Everyone knows that nobody pays sticker price for that box.

    What's y'all's opinion on these boxes?

    So if both boxes were priced at $1000 dollars which one would you choose? Probably wouldn't matter to you since they're both the same.

    Building a tool collection with different brands

    I don't care at all if it's mismatched. I bought nearly all these at yard sales and flea markets and also have a ton more rails like this. I just organize by 12 vs. 6 point and drive size. I have a list and replace the others brands with snap on as I find them cheap. These 1/2 inch drive...

    Neiko Tools PASS or FAIL thread....

    I wasn't saying it was bad because it's foriegn. It just annoys me that all their tools are listed on ebay as "Neiko Tools USA" when they are not made in USA. I might consider a seldom used item from them, but their blatant false marketing leads me to choose other manufacturers.

    I wouldn't buy anything from them. Putting USA in their name is just deceptive business and I will not support it.

    Macgyvering

    Thought of another one. On a raft trip through canyonlands in Utah and 2 days in the shear pin snaps on the little outboard. Used a leatherman to cut and file a small carabiner to fit. It's still in the motor to this day.
