HAH!
Lemmee get this straight, you lent out a compression tester, the
lendee broke it and you blame the tool, right? It's to laugh.
If I can buy a Craftsman wrench for ~1/3 the cost of the Snap-On,
knowing that the one I bought 20+ years ago is still going strong,
there's no contest as to which I'll buy. The Phillips unit from Harbor
Freight is a "chance you take" deal. Presumably, anyone considering
that purchase is pinching pennies. They just can't afford the pricier
units.
Yes, the Snap-On dealers are independent contractors here too. So
what? When you buy a Snap-On tool from one of them, you're paying to
support the entire company infrastructure, same as any other buy you
make. No surprise there, so what's your point?
BTW, If I was a SO dealer, I'd be PO'd that they've opened an online
store!
Cheers,
CR
