I have that set. Very handy to keep in pickup. The case is really good. $153 is a deal.
I got it recently and I was very impressed, though it did come missing a socket (actually it had a duplicate of another one).
I can't imagine keeping it in your truck, though. The set must weigh 50lbs.
The only downside is that the English (not the metric) snap into the case. I guess some judicious filing or cutting of the plastic might loosen them up.

Good posting.
That was a pretty complete set.
One should never wait when one sees a nice price at Amazon.

Good to check just in case. Amazon is the better place to buy this then
Even that 58 pc 1/2 set looks like a good deal @$100
Just did some searching and as of now Walmart is price matching Amazon.

take the hinge out and use the case as 2 socket trays?

So I realize this was from 2/18 but OMT's are awesome for modifying plastic cases.

And the 1/4 and 3/8 set’s bundled together for <$75 seems like a bargain as well.

Damn i literally just bought the 49 piece 1/2 gearwrench set 2 weeks ago because it was on sale for $105. This tekton set was on my radar but i passed on it because i didn’t want the ratchet/breaker bar and i didn’t want to drop $200. At $140 i would have bought this set since you get way more sockets. I do like the 1/2 120xp ratchet a lot but honestly i didn’t really “need” it i would have rather had more socket sizes

I wish tool companies would catch on and realize that there are a lot of people out there that would like to purchase large socket sets without any ratchets or extensions or other **** that’s included. Drop the price to reflect the gear removed from the sets and price accordingly. I know at least for me another ratchet (especially a sup-par one) is the last thing i need. Got way more ratchets then i need and honestly i would rather buy cheaper sockets and nicer ratchets for my tools jmho

$269.59 is a rip off. Tekton sells that set on their website for $200.00.

The 1/4” set is also $29.12. It was a couple dollars cheaper earlier this week but went back up. Dropped again today.
