Harbor Freight has recently changed their guarantee.
It used to be lifetime for all hand tools.
Now it is lifetime "only for their "Pittsburgh" brand, AND requires
receipt"!
Their little voltmeter is an acceptable deal - free with coupon.
Who, other than the seller, would be so attuned to the actual value?
To offend those who are too poor to afford poor quality tools:
There are SOME tools that I want to have one of available,
but do not want to spend the appropriate price for a good one,
such as 16mm and 18mm sockets.
My brother is in town, and wants to borrow some tools. That
makes me very glad that I have some HarborFreight screwdrivers
and wrenches, and won't need to let him near my good ones. I
don't even need to care whether he returns them!
