I've got another couple for this item that expire as late as Feb but I'm going to try and make a few bucks on them through ebay before making them available to you bunch of freeloaders!

Edit: Looks like you get a fairly complete set for about $16 after applying the 20% Q (on sale for $19.99 currently). Not too shabby for the money, FWIW

The quality on my set has been pretty good. The only issue is that there are "slip rings" on each socket, holding a ball bearing in place which indexes into the wrench. If these rings move around, with is nearly impossible to prevent, the ball bearing can easily be lost, and the socket will no longer hold itself into the wrench. This has happened on a couple of my sockets.
Recommend being careful with these cheapie ratchet straps. I have seen the ratcheting mechanisms bend to the point that the components come apart. For light-duty use, they should be fine, but I certainly wouldn't trust them to hold anything of value. If you compare the construction on higher-priced units, you'll see the difference.
As an example, I use this level of straps to hold plywood against the wall in my garage, but I'd never use them to hold one of my motorcycles on my trailer.
Just a heads-up.

I'm guessing they discontinued that larger set, couldn't find any other sets on the HF website. I'm looking for a large all purpose 'go thru' socket set - I know Craftsman, Gearwrench and Kobalt also make their own but I haven't found a large set on cheap yet...hoping something will pop up for black friday or after christmas. That slippage on the ratcheting mechanism seem to be the only complaint on an otherwise quality tool set. Thx for chiming in Squirty.

Please see attached for photographic evidence that this set exists.
I was actually looking for the label with the Item number so I could post it, but it seems to be long gone.
If you're in the market for a set like this, you should also keep an eye on the "Xtreme Access" line from Kobalt/Lowes.

Do you remember how much you got it for? Just trying to gauge what my target 'deal' price should be, thx Squirty!
