I still use the bottom of the Craftsman set I bought used in 71 for $65 from Jesse Stuart.
Yours seems to have endured a harder life than mine Tee. gm

I have thousands of dollars of Snap On tools & they are worth three, four, five times what I paid for them new in the 70s. Not a bad investment as far as I'm concerned.

Yes, BUT...wages have increased three, four, or fives times of what they were from the 70s also.
As far as tools being an investment, the latest flier from Snap-On has their 114ATMP 14-piece 1/4" drive SAE shallow socket set listed for $346. Yes, that's three hundred, forty six dollars. (Yea, I know nobody really pays MSRP on Snap-On tools, unless you need it NOW!), but still....
Don't get me wrong, Snap-On makes good tools. However, I'm not sure they could be labeled as an investment.
