Cripe has these on Ebay for 26.00 plus 12.00 shipping. http://www.ebay.com/itm/400679436278?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Was going to buy the Gearwrench 1/4 drive socket set from Advance Auto, but they will only warranty it with receipt. Called all three Advance Auto's in town, and they all said the same thing. I have three Napa's in my area too, so I called the Napa store right up the road from me, and they said sure just bring it in no receipt required. Advance Auto's reason for receipt required for warranty on the Gearwrench set was that other retailers carry them too, so I can understand that.

Just got my Napa set today, and Cripe sent them two day priority mail. Had to give them a break in, so I changed a fuel filter and ignition rotor on a Jeep Cherokee. No screw drivers needed on the fuel filter clamp screws because the Napa set had all the sockets(metric) I needed for the hex screw clamps.

Set the ratchet at 12 o'clock and turned it to 3 o'clock and counted 15 clicks, so four times 15 equals 60 teeth. Ratchet was very smooth. Really like the set of tools, and the case is nice too.

It's made in China for Napa by Danaher Tool Group.

Took some pictures.

Fyi for future gearwrench tool purchasing thoughts, you dont need a receipt, gearwrench will take care of you. On another note, my aa doesn't require receipt.

Nice deal though.

Both of my Advance Auto Parts simply input the purchase under my name into their database; so if I ever have a warranty issue, they just look it up based off my name and/or telephone number.

I have bought lots of parts from Advance over the years, and one thing I learned the hard way is keep your receipt. Twice on lifetime brakes they have put in the computer, and I went back to get replacements they could not find it. They did it once on a starter too, and would not give me a replacement, but luckily I found the receipt for that.

Now I only buy parts from them online, and pick up in store because they are always offering some kind of discount, and the proof is right there on the online account. But they can't put a part bought at the store on that account because they told me the store accounts are not linked to the online accounts, so save all your receipts.
