Default Snap on tools ( what a rip off )

Bought one of them alloy lightweight jacks today for carrying around with me for the caltex rs500

Wont even lift it


And worst thing is they wont refund me





















Am i wrong in trying to get a refund ?



























Propper cool little toy , and it does actually work and will lift quite a heavy item

Cool little Jack, I did ask the local dealer how much cheaper the big one would be if I didn't have the gift but he wasn't having any of that !
