People are finding that tools like Matco and even SnapOn are sometimes the exact same tool at HarborFreight, just rebranded. Heck I watched a video the other day about my EarthQuake sander/polisher being a Milwaukee in disguise.
Same thing with the people that supply products I install. Found out the other day that I can get the literal exact same thing for much cheaper. My supplier (the middle man) even showed me the internals. Only thing missing was the logo.
It's all a big scam to be honest. Just like my Porsche's being full of Audi/VW parts. Heck even my new commercial John Deere is a rebranded Wright mower. Oh and Harbor Freights Atlas line is actually Ego products.
