Got it for $34.xx
Great set. The 3/8" ratchet is a little too short, but the 1/4" is perfectly small.

I just cut off the zip tie holding mine closed and my right clip is loose. Not a huge problem since the handle is made up of the base and lid if that makes sense. Not like the case will dump open when you're carrying it by the handle but yeah, the case is a tad flimsy. But I like being able to see inside so 🤷🏻
The case is hot garbage. The latches were extremely loose and flimsy on all of the sets at the store I got mine from and they won't do well to hold the lid closed. Luckily everything snaps into the base part, but that is also a problem. Getting the sockets out is a nightmare and you can't easily see what sizes are what for the smaller ones since they are facing up. They did etch the sizes into the plastic but its nearly impossible to read without being 6" away with very good light.
Other thing I don't like is the lack of a 17mm deep socket. I was hoping to get one w/this set but it goes from 9-16 which is a very dumb/odd size selection. Luckily there aren't any skips that I saw. 4-13mm for 1/4 drive regular sockets (including 4.5mm), 8-21mm for 3/8" regular which is a great selection. I like the color-coded sides and super easy to read laser etching. I plan on swapping out the random sockets in my go-to toolbox with these as much as I can and if I lose one, I already have backups :-)
