Service fellow mentioned that he had already sold a set earlier this morning.

That's a damn good deal for a seat of normal and deep impact sockets, I'd be all over that like a cheap suit if I didn't already have the equivalent ToolPro sets

Recent email from Trade Tools was offering 20% off all Force brand tools for 3 days 4-6th May.

What I noticed was the increased price of a particular tool set; 80% difference in 8 years. Just confirms that it pays to buy quality tools when on special rather than wait for next year or so.

I can concur with that Ashley. I had a look back at my purchases in the last few years, primarily the time before Covid and the prices of nearly all the DuraTech tool sets, spanners etc I purchased from Amazon have either doubled or tripled in price. There's no way I'd pay today's prices and makes me feel like I got an absolute bargain back then.

The price hikes are ludicrous.
