I only see 14 wrenches, yes its 28 sizes but not 28 wrenches.

Edit: maybe they are hiding in there. Still not $2000 worth. If they were combination wrenches up to 2" maybe but open ends aren't worth that much to me

They're only expensive if you buy the whole set at one time. Buy three wrenches at a time and it's not so bad.

If you look at the third picture it shows all 28 pieces. I must not be a typical auto tech then. I bought a set of mac angle wrench set off e-bay for $200 shipped its either a 12 or 15 piece set. Ill get to y'all later with that. But it has a few over a inch. I use them quite often in the regular automotive field. The sets I always see people have is the sae set. Not sure why.

they come in real handy when you have all sorts of hydraulic valves, cylinders, pumps, and motors crammed into a tight place and you have to get the one line off that is behind all the others. Snap-on angle wrenches are really nice because they have a different angle on both ends then a normal wrench. I have Matco angles and the one side is the exact same angle as a normal wrench. Yeah, i didn't find that out till after i had bought the set.

Yaeh I believe my mac are the same as your matco. I also found out after buying. You think they would have been a little smarter about making them.

I guess i can't complain about mine too much. I got mine as a used set off the truck and only payed $300 for them. It is the set that goes from 3/8 up to 1 1/4.

Nah, people only pay snap on prices off the truck because they don't have to pay for it up front. Just 20 bucks a week for the rest of your life (and possibly your childrens lives).:lol:

These look like obstruction wrenches to me. I guess they're rare in snap-on-ville, usa. They're...kind of handy, if you're a wrench guy.

Nice wrenches, but they're not that nice---

I traded a kra 4813 and still had to give mony to boot on my set up 1 5/8". I think the 1 5/8" was $140 ish alone. I'd like to get rest up 2", but with little to use, I'm in no hurry.
