The Snap On prices are crazy. Many times not worth it. But there are a few things that are very worth it. Like the ratchets. Thier ratcheting screw drivers are great too.
One thing to look for in the ratchet is how fine the mechanism is. If you get a fine one with alot of teeth in the ratchet mechanism...it will help you out in tough and tight spots.
If you dont notice the difference between a good Snap On ratchet VS a mediocre Craftsmen...then you just dont have enough experiance with tools
The new Gear Wrenches are awesome too.
