I didnt buy these, but if correct, this is a great deal.
List $50
Marked down to $3.40. (93% off)
The specs say the unit is one box of 25 pcs.
Kinda risky, but might be worth taking a chance, if you need an add-on item.

Just ordered 3 of these, unfortunately I don't see anywhere that states it is a package of 25. Think they are just singles...

On edit

I see where it says 25 per box, above that though it states item package quantity of 1. Guess I will know for sure Wednesday.

From that description it sounds like they're the threaded wheels, which are generally more expensive. And 5/8-11 will fit what we would commonly know as a 4.5" angle grinder. 4" grinders are typically 3/8-24

The pic, however, shows a 5/8" hole which WOULD be a 4" grinder.

Amazon's notorious for this.........I'd be surprised if it's really a 25 pack. But of course all disclaimers apply!

Curiosity got the best of me on this one. It came across as one of those "too good to be true" deals, so I had to inquire.

I see called BIC Warehouse and spoke to customer service. I played a dummy and said I was looking for this item and wondering if they had any locations closer to me that sold them and about shipping charges. The lady said they sell the item through their website as well as Amazon. Perfect, so I then inquired more about the Amazon listing and the quantity. She confirmed it's EACH and not a box of 25. She then went on to say that any existing orders will be cancelled. :-/ I sure hope that I didn't ruin this for anyone as that was not my intent.

FYI...ordering direct from their website is cheaper. Ordering (1) costs me $3.25 with shipping vs. $3.35 from Amazon.

Looks like the listing may have changed some. It doesn't mention the 25 per box. and the price is down to $1.95. Very misleading on the list price.

I got in for 3

Listing still states 25/box when I pull it up.
Price is down and shipping is up due to it being from a different vendor "Sold by Bargain The People"
The only thing I'm holding out hope on is that the original list price is $50.00:dunno:

Back in May 2010 I ordered 7 10-packs of Milwaukee grinding discs from seller Mytoolplace (fulfilled by Amazon) on Amazon for $3.99 each. I ordered 7 to get over $25 for free shipping.

All 7 10-packs showed up without issue.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004WYUV/?tag=atomicindus08-20

So it could happen. The weight of the DeWalts is listed as 0.8 oz, though, while my Milwaukee ones were listed as 1.7 lbs.

the 0.8 oz. is listed as Item Weight, shipping weight is 2.2 lbs

As of earlier the listing was pulled
I think it's an error

Bob

It's still there, Amazon is out of stock, so it switched to another seller that has them.

I guarandamntee you if you order one, you'll get one disc, not one box of 25... sorry. I'd never trust the info in those boxes on something like that, they probably just cut & pasted the description from THEIR supplier, who sells in boxes of 25. :lol:

I just got a shipped notification. The shipping weight from UPS website is listed at .5 pounds. Looks like I will be returning them.

I received by order of 2 boxes of 25 and only received 2, so back they go. The Amazon website still says they are a box of 25, however.

I ordered four, and the shipping ended up being more than the disks. They ended up charging shipping on each item instead as a single shipment.

I strongly suspect they changed the listing to another supplier. I may have to return these when they arrive.

All,

Just got my box. I ordered 3 of them and that's what I got 3 wheels. I wrote the seller and had a copy of the description that I pointed out the minimum order of one box which contains 25 wheels. I'm waiting to hear back from them. Otherwise, back they go. :mad:

Got mine. Four discs. That's pretty much what I expected. And I'm not going to send them back- I was trying to get a deal through a mistake. That didn't work, so I'll take the hit. It's just how I feel.

All,

I wrote the company that sold the discs to us and the owner wrote me a very nice apology email stating that he messed up and he gave me a complete refund. He also allowed me to keep the 3 discs. I give the guy real credit. I'm going to right a very good feed back paragraph on Amazon about it.
