You can get nice sets from brownells, just dont buy the cheap priced ones.

Would one of you be kind enough to provide me with a link for a good basic set?

The one I posted earlier in this thread was rejected in the $100 price range. Clearly I don't know how much I should be spending or what to spend it on - thanks!

PS, I have no designs of opening a shop so I don't need the best, just a solid basic set.

This looks like a decent set of "Hollow Ground" Screwdrivers. That makes all the difference, hollow ground fits the screws best.
