These deals are nuts.
You've lost the thread
Looks like the horse has bolted with these prices
Anyone found the blow-mold case for these?
I wasn't able to find anywhere using Google. think you'll need to ring Sidchrome.
Thanks, much appreciated!
Just picked mine up - fits perfectly! Thanks again for your link.
Good deal for a grease monkey
Got my first Sidchrome socket set as a boy. Still going strong 30 years on. Very tempted to grab another at this price!
quality and reputation is not the same as it was 30 years ago.they were sidchrome for life back then
Interesting video of the Heidelberg Sidchrome factory back in the 60s. Almost bizarre to see manufacturing in Australia.

Plenty of OH&S issues in that video
Yep, got one when I got my first motorbike which was constantly needing repair. It cost a quarter what the bike cost but I had a bunch they'd last because youcannahandamanagranderspanner. Can't think of anything else I've bought that has lasted me this long.
Great find. Ordered one.
Bugger, nothing near me but that's a deal!
Onepass saves me driving to the shops
It was $10 extra with one pass though
$0 for me
I can use a set for removing my car battery. I believe both sets would do the work. Just for what if I need it one day reason, which set should I go?
The 62 piece set would be the best all-round choice. Larger range of bits and two ratchets. 1/2" sockets are larger, more for bigger bolts/nuts.
More sockets the better. It's a great deal
You only need a small shifter for that
Cool thanks for your obnoxious contribution… Wtf post is that?
There's always one…
"This is the way"
@pharcyde just liking this comment for the username
Sry to break it to you, but this set is far superior to the Stanley one. Enjoy your tools tho.
I have Stanley and Sidchrome sets and the 12 point sockets are identical. Given that they're made by the same company, the sockets probably are the same.
I bought both sets not sure if I need them but a great deal. Thanks
Shame they don't come with a case!
Otherwise i would be all over it
Yup, I’m the same. Without one I’d lose pieces in no time, especially the 10mm socket….
It comes with foam/similar thought right? So it can sit in a drawer?
Foam mat yeah, but how many people have a proper tool drawer?
I can only think of mechanics would may.
@dtc: I only do basic car maintenance but use my sockets etc more for building/reno so need a case to store the sockets etc.
Already have a 1/2” and 3/8” set in a case. I have a 1/4” drive set in a cheap ass plastic thingy.
I would have jumped all over it for the 1/4” set if it came with a case
Oh, it's the case? That's why I can never find my 10mm…. Makes sense now..
Case or no case, the 10mm will still go missing haha
@JimB: I put my Kincrome 10mm ratchet spanner key ring from a previous deal on a set of keys a few years back, only set of keys I ever lost
Yeah the second one would be perfect in a case. If it was just sockets I'd toss it on my rail but it's the small ones that I'm currently missing anyway
Very nice - picked up the 62 piece, and tempted to pick up an extra set as a present
Lots around brissy if anyone interested
I’m keen on a case now what are other people doing ?
Following! Maybe something cheap from AliExpress
We hit a snag!
Has this been removed from the website?
Still works for me
Still working & in stock for Vic
Add it to the cart that way.
Click the deal link instead of the individual links in the description, they are still there.
Had the same problem, search on Bunnings web site, then click add to cart button which works. Clicking through to the item it self gets the "hit a snag" error on the 62pc. NSW user.
Copped both, foam inserts alone are close to that amount. Thanks OP!
What a great find. Got the 1/2 inch metric set. Just what I needed. Thanks
Got both because why not.
Same here at these prices just crazy
Would one of each be necessary?
Would two of the second set be preferable.
For multiple 10mm of course.
Dw: Bought both, bigger sizes on the 1/2”
No point getting both, just get the 62pc set and be done with it.
Not actually correct, but probably make sense for most people
Bought one of each thanks OP
Why are you all getting one of each? Doesn't the 62 piece of have everything?
The smaller kit has larger/stronger drive and sockets
No, the smaller kit stops at 22mm and has smaller rachet and doesn't have 250mm extension. When you use a 1/2 drive for bigger bolts, you'll know why you need it. The smaller 1/2 kit goes to 32mm and when you need it, a single 32mm sidchrome 1/2 socket is more than $20 on it's own.
Thanks OP, got the 62 pack (hopefully it will fulfilled) couldn’t get the other one “hit a snag” message csme
Thanks for the link mate, placed the order happy days :-)
Thanks OP, grabbed the 62 piece set as I needed a good 1/4 and 3/8 drive set. Amazing deal!
Gladesville NSW has about 10 of both on the shelf, in the tool shop. Promotional item. Also the boxes are labelled 3 and 4. I wonder what items 1 and 2 are!
Theres a spanner set, screwdriver set and another socket set
anyone have a link to the spanner set?
These are the other sets in the custom range, none are on the sale though.

Maybe the 29 piece socket set is on sale at $60.14 but no idea what the rrp is.
ty local suprisingly had stock of the 62 piece
At least it's no a Video Card, SDD or notebook deal 😁😁
or a $1-3K video card
Thats it…
yeh…nice upgrade from my toolpro sca stuff…cheers!
Brilliant find OP!
Bought one of each… But why…. Why… Damn you ozbargain
Because when you do need it, it costs an arm and a leg
looks like they jacked up price before I could get one $150 now for the 3/8 set
I'm still getting the same price & still in stock for Vic
I just managed to get one then!
I either get snag page, or manually search to only find it back near rrp, oh well, didn't really need them
keep trying.. prices are still the same for me
This seems to happen because I signed in, then my cart updates to the $150 price instead of $39.98 after that even signing out keeps the higher price
@menvert: Not sure whats happening, but I had my order cancelled by one store, and just managed to grab another at the same price from another store.
Good deal. Got one of each. Just paid $15 for one 1/2 socket a few weeks ago at Bunnings..
Bought both, thanks.
Bought the 62 piece for a present. Thanks OP
Amazing deal, my DeWalt 1/4" socket spanner died recently, I think the spring that pushes the ball out to keep the sockets attached has failed. Good opportunity to refresh the range :-)
Bought both, thanks OP.
Great deal, thanks
Ready for pick up! Woo
same here just now. its a real bunnings deal steal for a change ;)
In stock at Geelong.
Got both.
Thanks op.
Ordered one of each thanks
Are these trays a standard size… Would they fit in other tool boxes? Or are the Sidchrome tool box drawers different from other brands like Kinchrome?
I love this idea
I don't need more tools
I want more tools
Too generic to answer.
There are thousands of different size tool boxes
Cheap as. Thanks.
