$39.97 -- but only applies to SKU#56212.

I think this clearance is due to a change in packaging.

Then cherish your store because they are not suppose to break sets.
The catch is you have to bring in and swap out the whole set for one socket. If you lose one socket but want to warranty another, SOL.
I believe what you're saying does happen. The problem is that many stores don't really know their own policy very well. It says "HF will replace any tool that fails" Doesn't say replace the whole kit of undamaged tools & specifically calls out the "tool that fails" for replacement. It does say they can substitute a damaged item that is "Substantially Similar item". I could see if they're going to replace the whole kit to replace it with a whole new kit. What you describe above is not correct in their actions period. Sounds like breaking sets could be very well allowed as a "Substitution".

Not going to internet lawyer it. Just putting it out there that one may be asked to warranty the whole set and bring it in for a single piece.

It is still Harbor Freight, not a tool truck.
 
I do not have many Icon tools but I do have a few eg long double flex head wrenches, as far as I can tell they are not junk and with the store being less than a mile away returns are easy but so far no returns. Not top shelf but I would put them on the same level as Capri, Tekton, Carlyle, Blue point, Williams Taiwan, etc all are perfectly acceptable.
