Not sure if this is right place to post this but Esco Jack Stands are on sale for $30. I just picked up a set to add to the ones I have and paid a lot more for. I find these to be very sturdy and much safer than the ratchet style. No relation to seller. Acoordint to GarageJournal forums price has been fluctuating a bit.

Thanks for the heads-up. I just bought 4. $30 is a good price for these. Pelican wants $70 for the same stand.

I just bought two, thank you….!

Great heads up, just ordered 4, had been looking at them for a while on Pelican but was too much of a CSOB to buy them

Post when you get them, some research showed this company was shady...so I held off on ordering.
Hopefully all the parts come through to you all. If so, maybe I'll order a pair too.

According to UPS tracking, I have two 25# packages on the way from OH scheduled to arrive this Friday. I'll post again when they arrive.

Posted by: Amphicar770 Sep 27 2016, 08:05 AM

Mine have also shipped and should be here tomorrow. Others on garagejournal.com received theirs with no issues.

I got 2 sets and got an email confirmation that they shipped. We shall see.

Ordered 2 on 9/27, standard shipping, arrived today (next day) - probably drop shipped from Esco, since the package came from "Distribution Center North", and I'm in central PA.

Cool deal, I guess it was some old info or they are better now...I'll give it a try!

Posted by: Amphicar770 Sep 28 2016, 03:18 PM

Mine arrived today. All good.

Only diff I see from my older ones is that there are now two holes where pin can be inserted instead of one. I see that as a design improvement.

Has anybody actually received their jack stands from this company?

They are based in Seattle, yet when I call during business hours, they say they are currently closed.

Is something wrong here?

Posted by: tygaboy Sep 28 2016, 05:29 PM

I ordered 4 yesterday and I got a UPS notification that 2 boxes are on the way...

Posted by: Cracker Sep 28 2016, 05:31 PM

Same here...

Tony

Posted by: Vacca Rabite Sep 29 2016, 10:19 AM

Mine got here today. I'm going to order 2 more if they are still on sale.

Posted by: JmuRiz Sep 29 2016, 11:57 AM

Ordered the 28th, still waiting on a tracking number...got it, exciting news for the jack stand gang (914 owners)

Posted by: 11tenths Sep 29 2016, 01:41 PM

Ordered mine Mon., were waiting for me on my porch on Long Island on Wed.

It's all good. Cue the dancing banana...

Was thinking about making these for our group.. They would have long tabs welded to the nuts.. It looks like there already is a good stand out there.

Posted by: bahnzai Sep 29 2016, 03:53 PM

Delivered today as emailed when ordered. Pretty stout and a bit bigger than I expected...

Posted by: Valy Sep 29 2016, 05:28 PM

You're using them wrong. Please place UNDER car, not next to car.

Posted by: Cracker Sep 29 2016, 05:41 PM

Strong units....good for the Vette, good for a teener!

Posted by: dcecc1968 Sep 30 2016, 07:06 AM

What a deal. Still on sale today. I've been using two rachet-style stands with no safety pins and have been wanting to get a pair of these.

Thanks for the heads up.

Posted by: Cracker Sep 30 2016, 06:30 PM

Well, I can't say much about their procurement department...they sent me a "double" order. Did everyone else receive two-units per box? They shipped me four boxes...I'll be calling them and returning the extras. They do look nice.

PS: The rubber round pads sure do stink - literally.

Got mine this afternoon.

Posted by: bahnzai Sep 30 2016, 07:01 PM

If I put them under the car, it will forget how to get down. It took me forever the last time it was stuck up on stands...

Guess I could call the fire department, it works for cats in trees...
