I was filling in some gaps in my tool collection 2 or 3 years ago, and had always wanted this Craftsman 176 piece socket set, so I finally got it. Like the OP said, most “sets“ throw in a bunch of cheap tidbits to drive up the piece count, this one is all sockets. Something under $150 IIRC.

But if you really want to go whole hog in Craftsman, and I would have at the time if I knew this one existed..

One thing I’ll say about them though is, they come in a box without any sort of socket holder. Doing some research at the time on tool forums for devices to hold them, it can get real expensive! Oh, and it takes up a lot more room than I realized.
