What are they thinking? Amazing... I'm considering rounding up all their
stuff I own and outright dumping it... just to be disassociated of the
brand.

I hope this campaign 'blows over' quickly... I dread friends/family
asking if I use their products.

Sears must have discovered a new target group for its products: people
who don’t care about how they look, where they live, or how they treat
their belongings. I wonder how much disposable income they have and
how much Sears’ tool sales will increase? Maybe Sears doesn’t care
about that either.

I'm not going to waste time looking at ads, but if you are going to dump
all your tools to be disassociated with the brand, ship all the hand
tools here, especially if they are old enough to be not made in China.
Then maybe you can replace them with new Snap-ons at 10X the price that
are made in China, I don't really care. Perhaps you watch a little bit
too much TV...when you should be using tools.

There has been discussion lately that some items are no longer stamped
that way on the tool - which surely means they soon won't be, if they
even still are. But the price won't come down, you can bet on that.

Sure they claim this stuff is only for asia-pacific market - do you
remotely believe it will stay that way?

Seems they have been at it for a couple of years:

Quoted from the above link (April, 2008)
"We are also very pleased to announce that Snap-on recently completed the
acquisition of a 60% interest in Zhejiang Wanda Tools Co., Ltd., a hot-forged
hand tool manufacturer in China," said Pinchuk. "This strategic joint venture
builds on Snap-on's current presence in the region and complements the
company's existing production capabilities in Kunshan, China. Our majority
ownership of Wanda Tools, our first hand tool manufacturing facility in
China, is expected to be a key contributor to our future state and is another
important step in extending Snap-on's manufacturing capability and market
coverage in emerging markets around the world."

other.

Okay, verified able to be shipped by UPS. How long does it last drilling 1/2" D holes in
steel?
