That just happened to be sourced from Taiwan manufacturers.But hey everyone knows the tool is what makes the mechanic not the knowledge and skills right ?
>>28886896>laughs in Amazon chink tools that cost 1/4 the price for the same quality
She cute I want to blow out a bukkake tier 15ml load on those cheeks.>>28886896>>2888690398% of snap-on's catalog are reliably spec'd, well made. Paying for the fact that the claimed specs are significantly closer to reality than almost all otuers is the same reason electricians pay for Fluke meters. Half the price are their warranty service just like those American high quality socks anyways Harbor Freight's Ikons and others are good enough for the price.That is all.
>>28886896Made in Taiwan doesn't actually bother me much.Most of our semiconductors are.If the tools are well made from good materials, why not?
>>28886896>Shits on your business modelNothing personal kid
The same retarded mechanics that bitch about the snap on truck are the same retarded students crying about taking out a loan to pay for education.
>>28886896I just buy used USA made tools.I've gotten to the point where harbor freight tools break too much
>>28886896Apparently young mechanics gets actual loans for those giant tool cabinets.
>>28887043>buy american branded chinese tools at american prices>buy chinese branded chinese tools at chinese pricesI know which one I'm doin
>>28886896Amarica can only blame itself for our problems today.
>>28886896E-excuse me ma'am, yeah I got a tool here that needs polished.
i get so much done with a bigass ratchet set and a roll of standard/metric wrenches and all the spare stuff my dad left me idk why fags obsess over buying tools.
>>28887017>buy tools from HF or snag snap on tools on the cheap from metheads >got my degree for free because I'm not retarded Skill issue all the way down dude.
Similar scene with power tools, with lots of brands and only a few manufacturers. This list isn't complete, I note that Festool for one isn't on the image.
>>28886896Really nothing wrong with Taiwan tools, but you pay Taiwan prices for them
>>28886896Snap on is pathetic.I applied to their help desk position. Fuckers were offering $19.50 an hour for a level 1.I was earning $17 an hour for a level one back in 2012.Their perk was 50% off all SnapOn tools excluding electronic shit.Wow how the fuck am I going to afford those tools even at that discount?Also they are giving you half off, pay you $40k per year and still somehow profit.That tells you a lot.
>>28886896You know you don't HAVE to take on unnessecary debt, right?
>>28886896>That just happened to be sourced from Taiwan manufacturers.i think most of snap-on's tools are actually made in spain at the bahco manufactury. hand tools anyway.you're not buying the tools you're buying the support infrastructure, like you are with hilti. if it makes sense for your business case you already know why because it's already showing on your balance sheets. i don't see why home wrenchers/private individuals would buy snap-on at all.
