My wife haunts garage sales and i've put together 2 tool box's for my son's. Nice red roll around craftsman box. 1/2" electric impact, heat gun, wrench's, sockets. Tap and die sets and everything else under the sun. Point is they are a good place to find tools, fishing stuff and even guns. And motorcycle parts !

Great thing about Snap On tools is if you need to sell you can get a good bit back from your purchase. Not many people will be calling for HF tools. Good tools are an investment for sure and are not cheap, to me its worth it
