I have some Snap-on from when I was a mechanic. Most of it went when i stopped turning wrenchs. I kept all the hand tools only to have then stolen about 5 years later. Insurance covered them but at the time money was spent other placed. I can not afford to buy them now, but I will pick up a few pcs when i see them at flea markerts or yard sales.

I picked up a set of metric swivel sockets and a 8" DA sander for $60 the other day. The bearings in the DA have a little growl in them but it should hold up for a couple of cars before I have to get the bearing kit.
