It's probably different everywhere you go, but mom and pop shops around here always had inferior quality tools at high prices. It always made sence to go to a big box store for more variety and a better price.

When I put my tool set together I chose all Craftsman stuff to start with. 15 years later and I've only had to use the replacement warranty on a few socket wrenches.

We do have one local hardware store left nearby. They family has owned it a very long time.

They carry Craftsman tools and if you can't find a part anywhere else they most times have it. Problem is there prices. It's not there fault but it hurts them!
People will try elsewhere first but if the parts can't be found they will have it.
