    Snap on new or used and warranty

    They want you to be the original owner yes. But if you email them and lie and say you where the original guy and say that the truck you got it off of is no longer around they will warranty it for you. I was told this by a few family members, even a few youtubers do this very thing often and...

    I wanna buy pro level sockets one at a time what of the most used sockets.

    They are good your right. But I want to get USA made and I want to have a good quality so I can pass them down to my children when I am old since it seems more and more stuff is being sent over seas and you see less American made tools.

I do want a whole socket set but getting 2 sets deep and shallow cost...

    I wanna buy pro level sockets one at a time what of the most used sockets.

    I didn't even think of SK. This is why I asked here before making my choice. I have a few SK sockets all SAE tho but there great overall.
