For hand tools, Gearwrench is a very solid option, IMO their wrenches compare favorably even to something like Snap-On. Harbor Freight has some good stuff, their hand tools aren't bad and their air tools(esp. the earthquake impact guns) are good, but NEVER buy anything from that store that 1) has a battery 2) is a consumable (sandpaper, saw blades, etc.) 3) you will absolutely depend on professionally (so like craftsman, if you absolutely need then buy 2 and rotate through them.
