My best mate used to be a tyre monkey at Kwik-sh1t. His tools kept going 'walkies' (mostly Sykes Pickavant - they can get a set when they start and spread the cost).
He got a really cheap and nasty (£4) set off the local market. Even though they weren't impact sockets, the 17, 19 & 21mm spent most of their life getting the living hell smashed out of them day in day out. A bit of flaky chrome was the biggest problem!!
A high price does not always mean a quality product either
He kept his nice tools for home.
