I ordered a IR 1105MAX 3/8" drive air ratchet from them back in March. They shipped immediately and I had the package in two days. Trouble was, they sent me the 1/4" drive model, which is identical to the model I ordered except for the drive size. I decided just to keep it. I figure it was a pretty easy mistake to make.

So despite that, I'd order from them again. However, I used them only because tooltopia didn't have that ratchet in stock yet (it was new at the time). Tooltopia's prices are a bit lower.

The link you posted didn't work when I clicked it, and searching for 3830 on their site didn't return any hits. Searching for "cable hose pliers" returned the KD 3835 model, but no 3830. By comparison, tooltopia sells the 3835 for $108, while etooldirect's price is $124.

I see what you mean. I went and edited the link so that it now just takes you to their home page. They've got the best price on the KD 3830; that's why I was asking about them. Thanks for your reply. :)

Darned if I can find the 3830 on their website now. The etooldirect link returned by Google shopping is broken. Tooltopia doesn't have it either.

It came up on a Google search last night, but now it's showing a 404 error. I'm thinking the 3831 might be a better deal anyway; it comes with 3 extra tips and a blow molded plastic case. :dunno:

Nevermind the set 3831, it doesn't come with the most important part, the 3804 cable tip. But the set 3835 DOES have the 3804 cable tip. This gets confusing after awhile. :eyecrazy:

I recently made a purchase from eToolDirect. Their website was not working correctly at the time and I could not tell if my purchase went through. They quickly e-mailed me and were helpful over the matter. Shipping was quick.
