My brother bought a Kobalt socket set awhile back. Some of the sockets were marked Craftsman.
Sears couldn’t decide if it wanted to be a Home Depot or a JC Penney. In the modern era, it wasn’t appealing to consumers as either. The only part of Sears that may survive is its dotcom business, which they shifted into a marketplace model a few years ago. Also, Amazon is getting into the tire business and supposedly partnering with Sears Auto Centers as the installation partner. That MAY help keep their service centers alive, but they’ll need to adapt.

people that work there though,corporate greed
has really did a number on this country

When I worked at Napa from 96-03 we would occasionally get in a socket marked craftsman with a Napa hanger. I think it was danaher that manufactured the sockets for lots of people.
They are pricey for sure. But I do believe you are paying for better quality and warranty. I love my snap on tools, the small groups I have
