Was $14.99 on Black Friday. Guess they didn't sell enough.

I've seen them in person. I think it was one 10" and one 8". I don't need them and almost bought them anyway. Thought it would make a heck of a gift for a $10 exchange.

Same set is sold at Sears.

They are Chinese made.

thanks for the pics, those look asian made as there is no American flag on the package like there would be...

 

[RedFordTruck]

Yeah theyre the Chicom ones

The ones pictured by DanCo are the Chinese packaging. If the ones at Advance have that packaging, then they're Chinese.

But, I have been unimpressed with the Crescent brand adjustable wrenches for a while. The lower jaw is always super floppy on the ones I tried, which includes the USA made examples.

The Western Forge ones are significantly better, IMO. Western Forge rebrands these under many, many brands, so they're readily available. The Spanish Irega-made wrenches are also top notch, IMO. The Channellock branded ones are made by Irega, BTW.

Not bashing the OP for posting this. This is a good deal, but there are better options available.

Yes, its Advance & they are made in China. Not big sellers, they have been sitting on the shelf since I unpacked them 6 weeks ago.

I always find used adjustable wrenches locally in great condition for super cheap. Not to mention the quality seems to be much better as most are 30+ years old. Not really relevant but thought I would add.

Same here man. ^^^ I've only bought 4 that were new. Bought them years ago.
Now I have about 45. All of them are 15 to 30 years old. Pennies on the dollar too!
I don't think I've paid more than $5 for one. Most were $2 or less. The only exception was a Klein 24" incher. I paid $15 for that one.
