But how easy is it to get new snap on parts? Certainly it's a good brand and worth the money if you really work on cars a lot, but for us average enthusiasts, the lower cost and availabilty of sears stores makes replacement easy on a saturday afternoon, while allowing for a bigger toolset for the same money.
I'm not trying to knock snap on tools, but I find them a bit pricey for a home garage that sees mostly personal oil changes. If it ever started making money for me (or I won the lottery), then I might consider some better tools. Even my friend who rents a shop only has a few snap on tools (the big stuff like a torque wrench). The rest is all craftsman, and like I said, it's nice when you break something and you only need to drive 15 minutes to get a new one.
