$1 a socket if you really,really HAVE to have them.....
FYI I gave about 100#s of them to local high school this spring a s I don't need 3 or4 of every socket......
You can also find them at yard sales, 'swap shop' type stores.

3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112

NEW is 150 pieces for $150.... so $1 each is resonable...

If anyone goes to Florida, there is a guy at the Webster Flea Market (Welcome to Swap-O-Rama's Webster Westside Flea Market - WEBSTER WESTSIDE FLEA MARKET)
that sells used American made tools pretty reasonably.
I make a list of ones that I need (most of them I eventually find) and get them from him. They may not be Craftsmen. He has a variety of USA brands.
I bought some really good punches and chisels from him last winter. I have to start a list for this year.

The guy must have had the same idea as you guys.
I made an offer at $2.00 a piece. He countered at $1.00 a piece.
I will still be missing one.

That's very cheap. When Sears was carrying Craftsmen, single sockets were nowhere  that cheap.

Don’t throw it away just yet. I’ll report back when they arrive as to what’s missing

Had to go up in to Missouri this afternoon for some material.
I stopped at a little pawn shop junk store that I like to go to.
I noticed a few socket bins. I’ve kept my list on the phone. I dig around and found the three missed ng sockets and with the proper designation.
The set is now complete but the 3/8” drive 13/16 short socket is a 12 point and supposed to be a 6 point.
Once I find that one it will be complete and correct.
