Saw these in CEF, but then I asked the price.

They’re still there

[ElectriciansForums.net] So very, very tempted………
 
That applies to quite a lot of things hanging up behind the counter in CEF!
You probably already know that after they tell you the price, you should always ask “and what will you sell it me for?”
 
Looked at the set on the left several times but couldnt bring myself to buy it. How much were they looking for it?
 
The thing on the left is called the Wera Maintenance Kit / Technicians kits and you can often pick one up online for around £100

The yellow screwdrivers you can usually pick up for around £20-25 online

The price I was told was 109 and 30 respectively.
Even with a “special” discount, that’s a bit steep.

Only one spanner in the tech set. 10mm and 13mm double ended.

IF that is + Vat then they are well over priced , not much margin on Wera tools for the wholesalers probably only working on a 20% mark-up

Probably the most useful size though, but 8mm and 17mm also very handy for metric things, and 11mm (7/16" AF) and 14mm (close to 9/16" for most purposes) for odd imperial bolt in that sort of range.
 
You can buy the Wera joker spanners as a set but blooming pricey for a spanner
 
My daughter gave me the Wera Tool Check plus set as a gift. A bit expensive as an "extra" but nice to receive as a present! I love the dinky ratchet! (OO-er, missus...)
 
Seen this set, and I’ve got a £10 off voucher to be used in march.


And then I see this


Throw the neon screwdriver away and save £5
That’s screwfix logic for you.

(The difference is the cheaper set has a very small slotted driver, instead of a very big one found in the 6 pack)
 
Best drivers on the market are Wiha

I have absolutely abused mine and they are still going strong
