I've been around construction mechanics for a while now. Most of who use Snap On or Mac tools. I have bought a few stubby wrenches to fill out my Craftsman collection as the do not make enough sizes. A couple other small items as well. The Mechanics keep themselves in debt to these guys for the exact reasons you have stated. "IT KEEPS THEM COMING BACK". The tools are nice, I have to admit. But I can't imagine paying those prices when there are some other quality tools out there such as Wright & Proto for much a better price.
