what's up with those speakers in the first picture? are they mounted in hinged wooden doors?

The stuff from H.F. I've had good luck with are thier oil filter pliers, breaker bar, rubber wheel chocks, heat shrink tubing, and my 1x30 belt sander has been working for three or four years so far, but it's loud. I had bad luck with their plastic creeper, it cracked from my 185 lbs the...

Would the outcome be much different if the seller warrantee'd the tools first, and then sold them second-hand? Should the new owner possess them for a certain length of time before being able to warranty them?

I've had my Snap-On RotoRatchets for about 20 years, and used them exclusively, until I got this one from Harbor Freight a year ago. I tend to grab the Harbor Freight one now, just because I like the Wiha handle and its push-button locking mechanism. I also like how it's longer. I'll never...

Not meeting all your requirements, but I have to praise my tiny (small) Stanley 6' Fat Max keychain tape measure. It's small. Way smaller than it looks on screens. If I put my pinky through the keychain, the entire rig spans my palm. It's $3. The tape is W-I-D-E, compared to similar tapes...

If resale-value is to be taken into consideration when determining what it's worth to you, Snap-On would likely hold their value much better. Most people don't plan on reselling their tool-storage, but you never know. Craigslist is full of used boxes.

Milwaukee 2710-20 M18 18V Lithium-Ion Vehicle Charger Milwaukee 2510-20 M12 12V Lithium-Ion Vehicle Charger I use an inverter, which can probably be less expensive if you already have a dual charger or something.

take my money (as long as it's reasonable)

Yup, and how often are you guys having non-flank drive open ends slipping off stuff? In all my years, it's never once happened to me. Yes, the flankdrive does grip better, but unnecessarily so, with a higher cost and possibly leaving dents in fasteners.

I like your blade mounting solution. I need to do something with mine:

Yup, that was one of the main selling points that caught my interest. They were like $50-$60 online, so I grabbed one from the Depot store for like $39, I think. My lid falls all the way over when opened, so i don't know how he got it to stand up straight in that first picture. When I tried...

Most Harleys I've heard aren't comparable to a little old lawn mower. They're much, much louder, and running an air cooled bike in your driveway for two hours doesn't seem like a good way to spend your money, but I wouldn't mind. I'd probably drown you out with my music if I got sick of...

I have some generic flank drive wrenches from Harbor Freight a long time ago. If they're made in China, they're the best I've seen from there, so I want to lean towards Taiwan. I know H.F. had a lot of wrenches made in India (that I destroyed) at the time I got these, so not sure if they'd...

I did exactly that with my first toolbox, and just remember it being a huge pain. I remember needing to take them apart and put them back together more than I would have liked. Maybe because I felt like it was too tall to move together, it was a while ago. I liked the secure feeling, so I'd...

Here's my only StahlWille socket for comparison. It's stamped into this shape, but it's usually for lower-torque applications, so it should be alright. It has a retention hole in the square drive for the ratchet ball.

Brother, I feel your pain! I'm the same way. I never tried bouncing them off the ground though. I have some deep-seeded aversion to ALL rubberized, extra-grip traction handles on hammers, screwdrivers, ratchets, pliers, cordless drills, toothbrushes, pens, mechanical pencils, eating utensils...

This. I wanted to say BlackHawk, because they refused to warranty this: They also sent me two 12mm sockets, and no 11mm. The extra 12mm was larger and sported their parent company's branding. But I'm going to say Craftsman, because they've let me down the most. I invested heavily...
