Too bad this came right after the cash deal on 3 of the sets http://www.sunextools.com/CASH That could have been some amazing double stacking!

I would bet it is a promotion Sunex is forwarding to Amazon, so they most likely deliberately did it following the rebates.

It looks like prices on some sets are still lower elsewhere...

very good deal on Sunex 2645 1/2-Inch Drive Metric Impact Socket Set, 26-Piece
after discount comes out $2 per socket, that's cheap

 

[Ign]

Cool, I just ordered their 2646, it's a pretty damn comprehensive set of metric deep 1/2" running 10mm thru 36mm with very few skips and not until the high 20's/low 30's mm.

I looked at some of their combo fractional/metric kits for less $$, but a lot of skips, esp on the metric side.

edit: no skips until the 30's

Thanks, got some wobble impact extensions in 1/2 and 3/8.

If you ever order any Sunex socket set check that you actually have all the sizes listed.
I had a hell of a time returning 3 2645 sets through 2 different vendors, there was always a size that was missing and a double of another size in its place.
I have other Sunex sets and they are very nice quality with no complaints.
I still want a complete 2645 so I might try again.
I'm definitely not saying that someone shouldn't buy them, just check them immediately when received to make sure it is complete.

Just got 3 sets with the $100 rebate deal and everything was correct.

The 1/4" master set looks tempting

 

[Mikerodrig27]

I have the 1/2 short 26 piece metric in my cart along with the 1/2" universal impact for when I order in a week

 

[turboneon]

Hmmmm. Should I get the quarter inch impact set to complete my collection? (I ordered the 3 sets from the previous deal that was the 3/8 master set and 1/2 standard and 1/2 metric).

I got those 3 before as well. I just picked up the metric set with some of the missing 20s and the sockets above 30 that weren't in the other metric set. It ended up being $55 so that seems pretty decent.

Hmmm do I want the 1/4" also. I have a craftsman set but it's not as complete as this for sure.

Why would you need 1/4" impacts? The 3/8" set gets small enough. Do you really need a 4-6mm impact socket? You could use a regular socket for those.

Do most people really need the majority of the items they pick up because of this site?

Stop being reasonable! Or we'll have to kick you out of the club!

That 1/4" Master set is indeed tempting. I've been trying to find a socket set that had deeps and shallow including 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 metric and this is the only one I've seen yet.

 

[Stealth103]

The 1848 (48 pc 1/4" set) seems to be a pretty good price at $69.99 before the 20% off. Why is the 1874 (74 pc 1/4" set) $266.56? Seems kind of high considering the 3/8" master set is a good bit cheaper, includes more sockets and the sockets it includes are larger. Also it's not even double the number of sockets of the 48 pc set, but it's almost 4 times as expensive.

Probably due to the fact that there are around 20 universal impact sockets in the 1874 set.

Yeah, figured that was most of the reason. Still don't know why it's more than the 3/8" master set (3580) that also includes universal sockets.

No, lol. A 1/4 impact set is a very specialized tool for a specialized need. While this is a simplistic view, most 1/4 sized bolts/nuts have such low torque specs and even if seized, there is general a small amount of surface contact area for a socket that you are not going to reach the limit if a normal 1/4 socket made of metal.

In the automotive repair industry, not very common. I would expect the industrial folks use them far more often.

I buy more than I need, no worries.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002MW9UW8/?tag=atomicindus08-20 showed up yesterday. All of the correct sockets were in there in tidy order. This case, and latches, are a bit better than the larger cases.

 

[fanatic]

Took a chance and finally got a 2645 set that is complete.
Happy Camper!

10/31 is the last day for this sale. I wonder if there will be another special after this one since it came on the heels of the rebate.
