Costco selling SK

[mkirkpatrick]

I was just looking at the Costco web site, they are selling sk, wrenches and socket sets, what is the world coming to, china making volvos and costco selling sk

I don't think Costco selling one wrench set and one socket set from SK is a signal the world is coming to an end. Hell, they're not even at that good of a price. SK has been sold periodically over the years at membership warehouses before. Perhaps SK is trying to get their name out to the masses like the quality Snap on labeled items also found at Costco.

Remember SK used to be sold at HF.

SK used to be sold almost everywhere from auto parts stores to hardware stores. SK was everywhere when I was a kid.

My dad's got a proto "challenger" inch wrench set and a 1/4" and 3/8" socket set from costco, he said they used to sell good stuff.

I'd say going by the trend SK has set forth in the past few years ... they belong at Costco.

All the sk stuff I got when my dad died was from NAPA, I know that the world is not coming to an end, thought that maybe it was a sign that maybe costco will start carrying better tools, look on the bright side, costco has a good return policy, might make up for the lack of for sk,(only from what I have read here)

I'd buy it if the price were right. ATM, the costco site is down.
