If you have purchased them at one store and go to another.

If the clerk gives you a fuss.You need to speak to the Manager.He will match the other stores price.

Well-

I called every store in Central New Jersey, but they were sold out. Found one in Southern NJ that had 15, but they weren't marked down. Had them for $118.

Seeing as I am stuck @ work in Manhattan, I had my mother and father cruise by Lowe's to "discuss" the price with the manager. My mother can be most persuasive in these situations, so I was cautiously optomistic. Long story short, she was able to procure 15 @ $35 each!

BTW, long time lurker, 1st time poster! What a great subject for the 1st post! And thanks to the OP!

The manager is the one who looked at the receipt and told me he couldn't sell them for that price.

you know you have a problem when you are contemplating leaving work early 'sick' to go to lowes and buy cabinets...

I don't know if the quality is good enough to justify a two hour drive. But I'm going to stop on the way home and snag a couple more if someone hasn't cleaned them out yet. If so I'll have receipt in hand and go to the Wadsworth store. It's taco tuesday at Del Taco so I can kill two birds with one stone. :)

NONE of the stores in the NW GA area ever kept that cabinet in stock.
Wonder if it was something kind of regional.

OH WELL.

Good luck..........................I really didn't need them..............just ask my wife.

I have a really bad habit of saving boxes, so I broke my boxes down right away (actually my gf made me) to stop the temptation to horde even more worthless ****.

Aw man - you shoulda folded your boxes up and hid them in your Gladiator wall cabinet! Locked the door and she'd never know.

Next time.

Hey, seriously - the rest of you guys - if you don't have a use for your boxes, ship em to me. Up here in Michigan, we're burning just about anything for heat.

Picked up some in south jersey. Lowes in deptford had 16 but not marked down, brought my receipt to the manager and he said he wouldn't price match. After alot of complaining and telling him I will never shop in his store he gave in, I picked up 8 total!

Well after the web site said there were no units in stock locally, I stopped by the closest store anyway. They had one unit on display at the sale price. None in stock. A store 25 miles away supposedly had three. I headed for that sote, but bailed out. Oh well. I was wondering if Lowes is going to drop all of the Gladiator stuff.

They were marked with the yellow clearance sticker at 29.50. I bought 4. This site has cost me a lot of $$$$$:lol_hitti

Well..I went to the store that had 2 cabinets at $29. They were marked back up to $59, and they had several more.

All other stores have them for $59.

I think they wised up to the low price and marked it back up...

Oh well..I probably didnt even need to spend $200 right now..

Same thing here, $59.00 and didn't seem to be interested in negotiating. (Bel Air, MD). They had 12 in stock.

I am going to try a nearby Delaware store tomorrow morning. Had my heart set on rolling out of there with a half dozen or so too.:(

Well Lowes had to give the price a little "Alaska Premium", but I still think I got a good deal on 10 of them for $300 even. Oh yeah and sorry to anyone else in Anchorage, I bought out both stores...

I'll bet the $59 price is what they were supposed to be, being as that is 50% of the original $118 and somebody fat-fingered a 2 instead of a 5...

I really didn't need anymore (already have (4) Premier & (2) Assemble) BUT you guys got me interested in the price. I bought the display at my store $29.50 - which is nice so I don't have to assemble.

I may swing by another store on the way home tomorrow to search for another display.

Just think, it probably wouldn't have been that big of a deal if it hadn't been for that pesky GARAGE JOURNAL!!

If it really was supposed to be 59, at least we can say we had a good run.

Every picture on GJ from here on out should have at least one Gladiator cabinet in it!! :)

AND.....

I vote someone starts a Gladiator wall cabinet install showcase thread. I would do it, but it will be this weekend before I get mine unboxed.

Hang em up and show em off. I especially would like to see the 26 installed.

I hope you didnt stack these more than 11 high, looks like 13 in the picture! Look at the little label on the box!!

I wouldnt want that stack to come crashing down, could be a mess.


I never noticed a label saying 11 units high, but I didn't look that much either. The stacks are about 11 feet high does that count.. The ceiling is 12 feet. I should get a couple more to wedge it tight against the ceiling.

Hopefully I gonna get them assembled before they fall. But from the time estimates of 15-30 minutes per cabinet in some prior posts I dread a potential high of 13 hours of just assembly?!@ :shocking:

Let's see.....26 cabinets.....each 28" wide. That's 60'-8" of cabinets! That should go down both side walls and the back wall of an average 2 car garage.

the garage is a 3 bay 28x38 so there is plenty of wall space, but you guys will hopefully see what I have in mind if it works out, it will be a little different then just linear runs of uppers around the walls.

nah, $29.50 is the 75% off clearance price. $59 is the 50% off clearance price.


I don't know the pricing history on these, but it looks like most stores went from $118 to $59, then to $29.50 (1/2 off $59). But some stores seem to have skipped the 50% off and went right to 75% off ($29.50).



I picked up 3 at my closest store this weekend, and asked the guy to look up other nearby store inventory for me. One store about 25 miles away showed 14 in inventory- I finally got up there tonight and they had about 10 of them on the shelf that I saw, but the Clearance price was $59... :(

SO I asked one of the dept managers about it, told him the other store had them for $29.50 and that I had driven there to buy those because I ASSumed they'd be the same price. He said "yeah, I'll mark one down for you since you drove all the way out here".....I told him that I didn't want to take advantage of his kindness, but I really needed 4 of them (that's all I could fit in my car). He said SURE, and he marked 4 of them down no problem.


So, it pays to be nice and patient. ;)

Correction - you've saved a lot of money. That's how you should spin it to the wife.

I see you are in the SF Bay area. Last I checked, there were 4 (plus display) at the Dublin store and 2 (plus display) at the Freemont store. At least that's how many I left them with. Didn't check the Livermore store.

FWIW, the Lowes corporate HQ is located in Mooresville, NC. That about 25 miles from me. I was at a Mooresville store this morning and picked up 6 for myself.

Should I go by their corp office and ask them why some of their stores did not honor the 29.50 price?

Maybe I can get the inside scoop on when the other Gladiator products are going to be discounted....and get the jump on you guys first...LOL

You need to ask them if they give discounts for "group buys" :lol_hitti
