Right on the money. I got this set several years ago for $170 and it's worth every penny altough the plastic tool case is a joke (IMO). The best wrenches i got are a set of the off-set box-end type.

I try to keep all my hand tools US made, but recently I purchased a few sets of specialty socket sets from Harbor Freight. They are sets of the torx, SAE & metric allen sockets. Quality is top notch and they look identical to the Craftsmans at a fraction of the price; $9.99/set vs $30+.
