Why Is It a Good Deal?

So far this spring, we've seen some great deals on tools coming out of Amazon. There have been big sales on fixtures within DeWalt's 20V series, essential tool sets for homeowners from Ryobi, and even electric lawn mowers from Ego Power+. Car enthusiasts are also swarming one particular deal: Craftsman's No. 1 bestselling mechanics tool set.

The 230-piece Craftsman Versastack Mechanics Tool Set is on sale for $129 on Amazon, 35% off its regular retail price of $199. It's earned over 8,600 five-star ratings from folks who say it's the "best overall set for the money." A whopping 3,000 sets have been purchased in the last month alone, propelling it up into the No. 2 rank among Amazon's bestselling toolsets.

Price-wise, we've seen this sell for a little lower in the past. But ever since the economy took a turn, it hasn't dropped to a lower price than this (not even over the holidays).
