    Ace Hardware sells Craftsman tools. Probably easier to warranty exchange now than ever(Way more Ace stores around than there ever was Sears)

    Dunfree beat me to it. Very select items, and certainly not the whole store, but there are a few gems, like my impact.
    Good quality products can came from China.

    Harbor Freight is not good quality...90% of the time.

    Ace and the big box home stores sell Craftsman branded tools made overseas. Their stock is also a fraction of what Sears used to sell. You can decide if that's good, bad, or some combination. The lifetime warranty has been chiseled for years. Stanley Black & Deckers says it will be honored for now.

    There are a few shops on 300w.
    Never been in any of them but do drive by them on the way to the archery shop.

    This is literally the point I was making.
