Today I broke the first piece in my 20 dollar tool kit from Pepboys. Of course it was a 13mm socket. 2 years for a 20 dollar 100 piece set isn't bad I think, as much as I use my tools. Anyone know where you can get individual sockets?

  The closest store that offers a lifetime warranty and has a good selection of metric sockets I would go for.

I tend to like craftsman.

I've had the same Craftsman set for about 20 years. Had one screwdriver replaced because I was using it for a crowbar when I really needed a crowbar...

One word...

Craftsman!

I have the original socket set I got back in highschool ( lets see.... s#r thats about 1967 )
They work fine and I destroyed the 3/8" rachet several times and they replaced it anyway! When it comes to hand tools....love Harbor Freight  but love Sears Craftsman more!
