Half price Halfords tool sets
Not sure whether this can help anyone, in my humble opinion the Halfords tool sets are pretty decent although I suspect most people on here will
already be kitted up;

I got the 170 piece, first one I got was broken and didn't have the film wrap around it, got it changed for a 'new' one but it is
good. £125 for something that is supposedly worth £250, no way I'd pay that much for it

Oh definitely, I've never understood how the RRP's can ever make money but for half price it seems decent. They seem quite true to their
'lifetime guarantee' as well which is worth it's wait in gold.

The life time guarantee does not cover any tools with moving parts so the socket set ratchet and ratchet spanners are not covered

I know thats how its worded but i think they are relatively relaxed with it. I broke my 1/4 ratchet and took it back in with my laminated reciept and
they handed me a brand new one no questions asked. It had taken a beating and eventualy broke after i had extended its handle with a scaffold tube for
extra leverage so they could have easily turned me down for missuse.
I have found their profesional range extremely good quality and for the price (when half price delas are on) shop nowhere else for ratchet and
spanners. The rest of the shop is a complete con.

They replaced my 1/4" ratchet no questions, I think it's a more a matter of obvious physical abuse that they get arsey about.
