Is it worth it snap on 8mm-19mm socket set

[johnnybentwrench]

Hi Everyone, I need you Snap On guys. is 110.00 dollars good for a set of shallow metric 3/8 drive new in the box 6PT 8MM-19MM
I have always wanted new metric sockets that were highest quality, Hazet,stahwille is first and second then snap on. I have new 1/4 metric and love em "There is a difference" yes I said that, You all know I am just a little partial to Craftsman and ussually what ends up happening is I buy a set of different wrenches, never use em and sell em to toolnut because i always grab the raised panel

Should I pull the trigger? This seems like a good deal.
No pictures, No time I need to meet in one hour!!
I won't flake, but need to be reassured this is a deal, Thanks guys and snap mom, JBW

[fordbroncodave]

[johnnybentwrench]

NO, Not worth it to me. PM sent to repairman.

Yeah, that seems really high. Those come on CL all the time for 65-75 dollars. I gave $110 for a 7 piece Flank drive plus metric wrench set and 8to19mm sockets. Keep lookin...

I generally don't buy engraved, but I don't understand the premium for "almost" new, its a tool, its gonna get scratches and dirty.

Buying tools for show, when you already have ok quality tools, is a slippery slope.

These were sealed. They are still available. I did contact the guy and let him know I am going to pass and I was not coming to get them. I hate craigslist flakes

I've been wanting to get Stahlwille metrics myself. Less expensive list than SO. I ended up getting sets of SO 1/4 SAE and Metric through that government liquidation site. They might have some left. They appeared to be unused. There was a thread about it. I think they were $45-$55 per set.

If you intend to use them yes. If you just intend to sit back and look at them buy the craftsman and play make beleive, lol

I bought my set off the truck. So it sounds like a good deal to me.

I will use em, However I purchased the stahlwilles from repairman. My Craftsman are pretty tired with mucho chrome loss. I will put them in my motorcycle tool kit now, I never could bring myself to trade em in as they were my first set of metric sockets purchased for a apprenticeship at an independent motorcycle shop in 90 or 91.

Your funny

You would be shocked how many people buy tools just to sit back and look at them and never use them. I know a guy who has 2 triple bay KRL boxes and several Carts full of New Snap-On tools he has nver used. He doesn't even want anyone to touch them. Mine on the other hand when you look at the tools I work with you go "Damn dude, what the hell you been doing with those things"
