Seem like a  pretty good deal.     I believe HD will exchange broken sockets as neede.d

Would be a deal if all 200 sockets were 10mm.

NAPA has a set of just 10mm sockets: https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/CHQSS1438010M?keywordInput=ss1438010m

You can buy bulk 10mm sockets on Alibaba.

Just picked this up last Friday for $99:

Figured if anything it's a good all-around kit to travel with. Wish it had some bigger stuff, but I have most of that anyway in other sets. Ratchets are really nice! Husky stuff does have the lifetime guarantee, too.

I'm picturing something like Chewbacca's bandolier filled with nothing but 10mm sockets.

Hell, they were $99 last week.   Glad I didn’t buy them.  

Has anybody used these types of sockets where they don’t grip on the corners.  Says they contact on the flats.

Seems like a good deal but since I got my M18 Milwaukee impact that's all I use.

Wow. That is a good deal. It's probably wrong that I'm considering buying this because it's easier than hunting down and sorting out all the piles of sockets in my shop....

But seriously, 6pt, 12pt, AND deep of every size imaginable? You're gonna spend another $80 just on organizers to hold them all.

I wish there was a metric only 6 point only version for $30...

Never understood why people need 12 point sockets.

In reply to collinskl1 :

For 12 point bolts, and for rounding off 6 point bolts

Of note, this only has 12 point in the 1/2 drive sockets. That keeps me from being interested too much because at that point it's effectively a 1/4 and 3/8 socket set for me, as 12 point is too shaky at the torque levels you use 1/2 drive for.

i jumped on this, the craftsman stacking setup is really practical.  Tools are way nicer then I anticipated.
