I've actually seen Harbor Freight tools in the store in the packaging that were broken! Doesn't mean everything they sell is crap, but I'd be careful what I bought from them. Floor jack, probably not. As for floor jacks, I've always wanted a really good quality floor jack like gas stations/repair shops use. Went to an auction a few years back, guy ran an auto repair shop at his house and was selling off all his equipment-3 nice floor jacks included. Idiots in the crowd bid them up to nearly what they cost retail!! The auctioneer even held up a small cardboard box with a bottle of Windex (about an inch left in it) and some used rags-a fool bought it for $2.00!! Never been to another auction since... Jeff

Thanks.
