snap-on warranty isn't that good if you are not a pro. these "reps" are pretty leanient when dealing with mechanics, because they are the people who pay the bills. but if you are a weekend warrior, that's another story. i spent some time chatting with a local rep at a dinner few weeks ago, there are many many fine prints regarding snap-on's warranty. for example, it doen't cover any plastic, rubber and wood materials, meaning if you have a rachet with a rubber/plastic grip, any thing happened to that grip, snap-on isn't gonna replace it. for my rachet torque wrench, the only parts under warranty are the gears inside the rachet head, not the rachet head, not the handle, not the grip, not the dail. the rep maybe BS, but you got the idea.
