no Matco owns craftsman, but snap on has farmed out alot of there electrical test equipment. its just cheaper for them to make that way, yet our price remains the same. kinda p00 p00 but what can ya do???

only thing that isnt worth the money through them is air tools....  they are all IR and aircat  somehow atleast $150 more than the actual price...   But once again, say you want it and its yours, just pay weekly

You do get free coats and stuff all year round, cant forget that!

Well I use it EVERY day in my performance electrical systems class.

And the snap on guy gave me a $25 gift card for me to take a class to learn how to use every function on it. The. I get a certification for it. So I figured why not?
