Sears and now OSH (recently purchased by Sears) have finally lost my business for good. I'm really sick of retail shops that treat all customers like thieves, locking up half the tools so you have to fetch some drone to unlock them for you. They also never seem to have the tool I need anymore, nor do FLAPs or hardware stores. (Hint: I need a 12mm allen wrench now).
I'm not friendly with any local shops, and frankly can't afford Snap-On's prices, so what's a good on-line tool supplier? |

Hi
You know in a pinch, you can go to the Napa store and order it. Ive gotten some pretty odd ball tools usually within hours (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif) Napas' "professional" series is some pretty good stuff, and goes on speacial a lot. I find myself ordering more and more, just because its so easy. I have the ...purk...of working in a garage, but anybody can walk in and order. Hope things work out (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif) Later (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
