Impact Wrenches

Why do air impact wrenches cost so much! A craftsman or snap on costs over 100 dollars then ebay has some cheaper ones for like 30 bucks. Does it really matter if I were to get a cheap one? I have tuner lugs so I don't need the sockets. Here is a link for prices off ebay

What do you all think? Is it worth getting a good one? I know the expensive ones have higher torque ratings but is it worth it?

yeah i have the 1200 Ft Lb Ingersol Titanium and it was just under $400. Just remember you get what you pay for. Mine will last a liftime but the $15 ebay might last a day or might last a while but you get what you pay for.
