I like Tools Delivered. They have a GJ discount code, but I can't remember what it is. Do some searching here and you'll find it.

Tools delivered. In fact, I just got in another order of USA Williams from them today.
They have good prices, but I haven't been impressed with their warranty support.

industrialsupplydenver.com is another good supplier. Both have a GJ discount actually, and I think it's 5% on both. I have had good experiences with both.
same. even with a personal response you're kind of made to feel like you're wasting his time.

I sent toolsdelivered an email concerning a gj discount. I searched, but couldn't find the info. I'll post up the code including details if and when they respond.

I have the 6pt USA SAE Williams one, from ISC Denver. He told me the metrics haven't been USA for a long time. Hope this helps;
WILLIAMS 14 PIECE 1/2" WSS-14HRC 1 79.51
DRIVE SHALLOW 6 POINT
SOCKET SET, SAE, USA
MADE, #WSS-14HRC
from my invoice a year ago.

I have also noticed some odd gaps in Williams metric sockets.
That is part of the reason why I have a mix of Proto and Williams.

I hope that's not true... I bet that the Taiwan stuff is good quality but there's a part of me that feels better about having the option to buy USA made tools.

I buy Williams locally.http://www.pts-tools.com/cgi/CGP2HOME
Not the greatest pricing but if you have a.business account with them it gets cheaper.

Not good for a discount. I am unable to copy/paste the reply - but according to JD @ toolsdelivered.com the prices will be going up do to a manufacturers price increase on 2/3/2015.
I'd say we better start ordering now.
If you want a forwarded copy, send me your email via pm and I'll be glad to forward.

1/2" drive 6pt metric sockets are not available from them unfortunately. I filled in that stuff with SO, quite a bit higher than Williams, but my OCD want the sets to match as close as possible
I have bought through TD and ISC, I've had great luck with both, however I have sent TD some emails and the past which have gone unanswered.

Now I am bummed, I don't see that you can get Williams usa 1/2" drive 6pt shallow sockets, only 12 pt
I'm having no trouble finding 1/2'' drive 6pt.
Here's one right here:

It's looking like they only have 12pt in 1/2'' drive metric.

Hillside, NJ , 07205-1009 . . .has old-stock Williams sockets, but a diminishing selection. I've bought many of my Williams oddities from them. Nice people to deal with, especially in person. They also have a bunch of close-out Starrett precision tools and other goodies at the sales counter, at least the ones I haven't already nabbed! Also try Fazzio's (the 'surplus' buildings )in Glassboro NJ, for Williams sockets, but they will be used, random and mixed with other brands. However, on last visit, there were hundreds, if not thousands of USA 1/2" and 3/4" sockets to browse.
