Just picked up a set of these for $14.68 shipped, Schwaben part# 012599SCH01A

No idea why they are so cheap; they're typically over $50. The cheapest I can find them otherwise is $35 at ECS...

Re: Cheap Schwaben Long Torx Socket Set
Schwaben is ECS's in-house brand and they usually run deals on their tools frequently. I have about 7 or 8 different Schwaben tools / kits here and have not broken any of them yet. Good price, and good quality so far too.

Re: Cheap Schwaben Long Torx Socket Set
Yea, it's kinda funny that you can go to ECS's site right now and buy this kit for $34.95 or go to eBay and get the same thing from ECS for $15. I've also found the Schwaben tools to be very good quality and value. Clearly not Snap-On quality, but clearly not Snap-On prices either. The only thing that might be a drag is getting warranty coverage since the tool would need to be shipped in (I assume).merkurdriver wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2017 3:20 pm Schwaben is ECS's in-house brand and they usually run deals on their tools frequently.

Re: Cheap Schwaben Long Torx Socket Set
Yeah you would have to ship the tool back if there was a problem. This whole week all the Schwaben tools are 25% off FYI.
Still not as cheap as ebay - I think they run select items on ebay to sort of promote the brand / exposure / etc.

Have you put one on an impact wrench and blown it up on the axles yet?
