when I buy tools, I make sure I get the stuff that will last longer than me - I get so sh!tted off with crappy tools - "the sting of a higher price is forgotten long before the pain of an inferior product", right?.

Hence the W&B torque wrench, your guys found me the flash valve chuck I wanted for my hydro pump too - I think other than those two things it was only a few sockets and other bits & bobs - I remember getting my very first ratcheting ring spanner from Blackwoods... sob... oh the happy memories

the company I was working for had a significant corporate discount, then they decided they didn't want me there anymore, so I was without discount for a while, then another discount became available at the place around the corner ;)

Sounds like you have gotton onto a good thing at your new employ, so stick with it.

Yes i have heard numerous stories of the $3 socket set and why is our $45 when they are the same thing.
BTW i can tell you how to stooge the system via email if you want
