If they are all form the same factory, then they're using different materials and manufacturing processes for the different tools, as some of them are made of cheese and the 13mm spanner is more like 12mm, where other sets are epic.
Welding and fabrication projects undertaken, contact me for more information.

Because very few of them are the same. Go look at a snap on ratchet next to a halfords and mac tools one. Then tell me the only difference is the name on them.

You need to post proof that you looked at them together! I want it timestamped with evidence to show it's not a 'shop

What do people think of this set:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/94PC-SOCKETS-D...5aec5c0dc0

It's half the price of the Iridium Bahco one and looks quite good quality. Says it's for professional as well as DIY use as well so you can do both with it.
