I bought that set to keep in the back seat of my beater with a heater a couple years ago on Black Friday for about $150. It has most everything you need for basic stuff and the plastic box is nice to keep track of everything. And at the price, I don't care if it gets stolen or something.

I started out about 2-1/2 years ago with Craftsman sockets, wrenches, and impact sockets. I bought one of those 3-drawer sets, and the sockets (still USA) looked like ****. Awful chrome, tons of flash, etc. I returned that for one of the all-6-point sets, and the quality was much better. I still have the chromes and wrenches, but have replaced most of my impacts.

For my money, I'd probably buy GW chromes and GW or Sunex impacts over Chinese Craftsman.
