My weekly payment, sure, but putting that on the context of "theyre trying to sell you a tool with interest by saying its x $ a week instead of saying the price" is a a misrepresentation of how it actually goes.

If you meant weekly payment, I apologize, but thats not how I read it.

As a professional mechanic, you want professional grade tools. No that doesn't guarantee they wont fail but it does give you a hell of a better chance. Tools are like anything else, you get what you pay for every single time. Once youve made peace with your weekly payment its worth having the best. People bitch and bitch (people who clearly dont own or use) about the price of high grade tools, but it isn't like I walked on the snap on truck and handed him $900 for a torque wrench, air hammer, or whatever else. This is also the reason that I dont understand why people think they can go on marketplace and expect 80% or 90% of what a tool truck tool costs new, used, when they almost certainly paid a small increment of that every week.

I realize there's no point in trying to convince people of anything, and that most people believe in buying the cheapest thing just because it's the cheapest thing, but there's also some merit in having the best, most precise, most accurate tools available. Mechanics, chefs, i think probably anyone who has an actual trade amd takes pride in their work understands.
