Don't look now but even Snap On is gradually moving production to Asia...so that $80 3/8in drive ratchet may not have a country of origin on it...I'd hate to spend "tool truck" money for imported tools. I have a tiny little MAC MR4C 1/4 inch drive ratchet that doesn't say Made in USA anywhere on it...$58 retail on the truck, and I assume it's Taiwanese. Beautifully made and works just fine, but $58??? (I didn't pay retail, I did some horse-trading).
I have watched Sears quality drop for years, and the level of service I have gotten in most of their stores is shameful. For the moment anyway, some of their tools are still a good value, and well made. The allure of Sears has always been the warranty, and if that changes, there's no reason to shop there.
