Best buy for the $$ appears to be the SS models at Sams club. i've seen $800 versions (huge) and $400 versions (still nice size).

That said i managed to score a very nice 3 pc setup from sears for $260 or so and i'm happy. didn't get ball bearing but it wasn't worth the extra money to me. i don't load up each drawer till it's overflowing. all my wrenches lay flat on the drawer liner, none are stacked.

have 2 drawers for metric wrenchs, 1 for SAE, 1 for hex stuff, 2 for ratchets, 1 for cutting stuff (utility knives, scissors, etc), 1 deep for air tools, 1 deep for corded tools, and many others i can't think of off the top of my head. i figure for the $200 +/- that i didn't spend i could purchase a LOT of tools.

the harbor freight boxes are surprisingly nice when you see them in the store.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.
