Default ?Tell me this isnt a rip off

I am pretty sure you can go into your local hardware store and gather the same exact tools for probably half that price. There is a great business oppurtunity if anyone wants it. Go and make your own sets of tools for bikes and sell them on ebay. Looks like there is a lot of profit margin there. What do you think ?

its ok, but not for a 100 bucks. Id just as well put my own together, which I did from my existing tools.

They are charging for the convenience and packaging. There have been a lot of people that have made a lot of money for coming up with ideas that save people time and effort.

If you add up the prices for the individual Craftsman tools in that kit, you'd probably blow right past $100. Maybe I'm wrong, I certainly didn't try it, but tools are always expensive when purchased individually. I suspect this is less of a value than their other sets, but not by much.

You'll probably have to go with no-name Chinese tools to make a profit selling small quantities of these kits.

Hey mcurry5, notice where the 1 guy who reviewed the kit lives. Maybe you can go over toCraigJ's house and he'll sell it to you half-price.

Didn't it say it was designed for import bikes anyway?

If you follow your link to the product page, click on "reviews." The one guy who reviewedthe kitis from what I think is your town. You could just start with J in your local phone book and ask to speak with Craig.
