and when a tool is a valuable item, they can charge more as well.

Always nice to get some quality for 'nix'

Took the rachet handle from my 30 year old Sidchrome socket set a few monthe ago - it was worn out from fair wear and tear. Took a couple of monthe but they have replaced it with a 'brand spankers' one. Talk about standing by their guarantee. Just goes to show that you get what you pay for.

Cheers

Cause quality costs money. When you torque up 100 bolts and nuts every day, day in, day out, 6 days a week, an inferior tool will last about 2 weeks if that :wink:
