Yes Thank you again......Kaervak. Got mine today

Ditto..thanks a bunch!

I rarely use a ratchet anymore, I'll walk to the other side of the shop to pick up the Mlwkee rather than use the ratchet 2 feet from me...crazy.

The last two people I got sets for, they'll be shipped out tomorrow evening. Gotta love long shifts at work.

Ok, that's a flat out lie. Saturday afternoon they'll be shipped out. I have a 15 hour shift tomorrow starting at 0500, so technically I'll be dead after work. Sorry the delay, but they will go out Saturday guaranteed.


Side note: for anyone that would like the strangely omitted 13MM 1/4 socket Summit Racing has them for $10 plus shipping. The Craftsman number is 15696 and it's USA made.

I have a few new sets I picked up if anyone else is interested (really only interested in selling as a pair) $42 shipped. PM me. I will probably hold onto them for awhile then put them on ebay if no one here wants them.

That 13mm is strangely missing. I bought similar 1/4" drive impact SAE and MM sets on clearance at Grainger a while back. The sets consisted of 9 sockets each:

1/4" Drive:
6 pt. shallow SAE - 3/16, 7/32, 1/4, 9/32, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, 1/2, 9/16
6 pt. shallow metric - 4, 5.5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14


Summit SAE 9 piece set $30.97

Summit MM 9 piece set $30.97
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/shc-931196

Summit 18 piece SAE/MM set $58.97

Wow Radrush, You really started some thing here, Good going. All ready over 200 replies and some one should count how many sets of sockets sold here because of your thread. if any one does a count please post it, and please post as each set (ie 1 sae and 1 metric). Just a pat on the back to all whom made this possible by going and picking up and sending them out... Thanks to all...Rich D. Cranium......

17.99 in my store. metric only.
i called the store on thursday and asked if they had any. told them they would be in a brown or white cardboard box with a tag. guy looked and said no, we dont have any sockets.

go in today, they have a whole endcap full of them and one is taken out of the box and clear taped to the outside so you know whats in them.

I bought a set of each, not because I really needed them , but basically because I didn't have them. And to my surprise after I opened them, They say Made in USA on them. Little added benefit!

Wouldn't in be funny if back as Sears main office someone was calling in the troops, "Hey, you all get in here. We have to re-think this whole 1/4" impact socket thing. Look at these sales figures...the whole country has gone plumb crazy for them!"

Cripes has the Armstrong 13mm socket for something like $2.00. That's where I got mine to fill the set.

Na they would be like Wow we can make more money if we outsourced them to China. Someone on the board of directors would be like Sir we already do :headscrat. Oh yea that's right.......

Have not received these...

Can you PM me the tracking information?

It may be caught up at the mail center, as they tend to fall behind after holidays.

Thanks...

Tracking info sent. They are showing as delivered according to USPS. I hope USPS didn't screw anything up.



Edit:
Everyone that bought sets from me, all your tracking numbers are showing as delivered but could you all please confirm that they sockets have been delivered?

The mail center(private company, not USPS) has obviously screwed up yet again...

FYI, I have one 1/4" metric impact set that I don't need. If anyone needs it let me know.

$20 should cover it shipped

Saw a bunch of boxes today at the Sears outlet in Milpitas (Great Mall). That's about it for tools. Nothing much Craftsman except some damaged tool boxes. They had plenty of cheap cheap no-name dollar store quality screwdrivers, hammers, etc. It was pretty sad actually.

looks like the same shipment my store got, 10 pc 3/8" chrome sockets for 12.99 and 1/2" 6pc chrome set for the same price. No impacts :( though I do see a few different part numbers in his pic.

I didn't see any marking on the box as to where they are made. All the boxes were taped up.

Picture # 3 above with part # 49140 should be the desired metric 1/4" drive USA impact socket set . .
. . . (8 pieces for 4 mm through 14 mm, with skips).

If those are $12.99 go buy them all !! ;)

Those look like the made in USA boxes. As long as the part number label (with the barcode) has lots of information and not just a part number, those are made in USA.

I have found many of these sets in Tampa and Brooksville, FL if anyone is looking for them. Tampa had maybe 30-40 various socket sets left on Saturday but Brooksville probably had a couple hundred.

I picked up the 1/4 metric impacts and 1/2 deep chrome.
Thank you for the tip, picked up 2 of every set they had in Tampa - Dad will love Christmas this year!

I would call the El Monte or west Covina store first. This is the only Sears outlet store I've ever been to.

I only paid $12.99 look for boxes tagged that. They rang up as 14.99, but I made the punk kid contact his manager and they gave me the price as marked.

Thanks, that vineyard store was on the way home from work for me today. I picked up the 1/4 metric impact mostly for the 5.5, 8, and 10mm sockets. I was using my chrome 1/4 sockets on the small impact.

Looks like they had all sorts of sockets on sale, chrome and impact, all 3 drive sizes, in metric and sae. Prices range from 9.99 to 17.99
