Anyone know who stocks Stanley spanners in Pretoria?
I would like to buy a set of their spanners, rather good quality...
Can't afford the Gedore yet

Hi Ilyaaz
I don't know about the Stanley, but have been pretty impressed with the Ampro stuff from Autozone. For the price I would rate it as about the best you can buy.
Or to put it another way, I haven't broken one of their tools yet

Why not try the mastercraft tools very good quality and cheaper than Gedore, from Makro.

Ditto with the Mastercraft, they have a very good warranty and exchange policy

I still believe in Gedore! Bought a bargain a few years ago, but they are pretty exoensive. What about Stahlwille!!!
