I have searched around here and have never found anywhere to buy a Snap-on 
tool.  I once saw one of their trucks driving down the highway but decided 
not to cut him off and force him over in heavy traffic.

I'll chime in on the Snap-on flare nut wrenches.  They are the only ones to 
use.  I've had the Snap-on work when the Craftsman just slips.  I have a set 
of Craftsman and have used Mac and Matco.
I lost my Snap-on and tried to use my Craftsman a few weeks ago.  I gave up 
and bought another Snap-on.
I do have a 1" open end wrench I us but wouldn't have any issue using an 
adjustable in this application.  It shouldn't be tight enough to matter.

After using my set of smaller Craftsman flare nut wrenches to no avail on a
really stubborn unit even with the addition of ViseGrips on it I broke down
and bought a set of pricey SnapOn flare nut wrenches. They do work better.
