Take a look at

http://www.lockpicktools.com/lockpicks.htm

About halfway down the page, they've got the set inside the credit card for about the same price yours was, along with another concealable set below that. LockPickTools is a well known lockpick supplier and from my experience a good company to work with.

Both credit card sets look good to me, and I'd say the cost is fair...the only thing I don't like is it makes your picks more concealable, not saying you want the set to do bad things with, just they can get you in trouble if your not careful.

This all goes back to my theroy of, leave 'em at home and you cant get in trouble. I'm sure if you needed them to get into your house after you locked your keys inside you would be happy you had them though :lol:

pick set

I bought a set of majestic picks about 10 years ago and still use them. I saw the ad for the idealcreation set and bought it cause it looked kool, and I wanted the tension tool for round keys. I was NOT impressed with the set and would not recommend it. Save you money.
