Well--I guess if a person wanted to they could go to a flea market and buy old
beat up Craftsman tools for peanuts and take them to Sears for replacement.
I know, we had this discussion before, but I still have this feeling that if I
didn't buy it originally, i shouldn't be taking it back for replacement.
Flame away.:)

I recently found a Craftsman screwdriver on the highway. There were no black
skid marks around but the screwdriver had sure been run over some. It was in
rough shape.
Not able to find it's owner I took it to the tool section of the Sears store
saying this screwdriver is in pretty rough shape. The store asked if I wanted
a new one.
Among some other-type tools Sears will not replace tape rules either now.

"Craftsman will no longer give you a "new"ratchet. They will give you a
"rebuilt" one. At least you can still get a new BFScrewdriver, which I'm
sure
none of us ever misused as a prybar to get an engine aligned into its
mounts.

Made me chuckle, I have taken in "BF Screwdrivers" that have obviously been
used a not only as a prybar, but a chisel, with the plastic end banged all
to hell, no questions or comments no dirty looks, no paperwork or receipt
required they just give me a new one.
heck of a deal, yes the new ratchets and some of the new tools are not as
high quality as the old ones, but if they fail sooner you can still take
them back again..and again.
