Still waiting on mine - ETA March 18
Got the cart, shipping company called and scheduled delivery. On a new pallet wrapped in plastic like others have said. Did have some shipping damage to the paint on the handle which I don’t care. I don’t know if mentioned here but the casters have 2 grease zerks , one on the outboard side of the axle bolt and another on the outboard side of the caster. Both zerks deliver grease to the same location. Mine was dry and it took a lot of grease to fill the housing on each caster. Great deal at 80.06 delivered. Thanks OP.

I had two of those IR 1/2” and one of the 1/4” version fail on me in a professional setting before switching to electric. If I remember correctly they have some type of plastic piston with an o ring that would fail and allow the air to come straight back down out of the handle rather than spinning the mechanism.

Yeah - I've got a Nitrocat. Had it quite a while. *just looked, 2017* paid @ $170. It's now $272. That was after a bad experience with an IR. My next will be cordless - probably red (already have a 1/4" driver, drill and batteries). Odds are if the Nitro won't break it loose - or break it - it needs heat or it needs to become liquid.

I bought this, it's a decent little driver for light duty work.

Two things to note if your interested:

1.) It's Micro-USB charging, not USB-C.
2.) There is no variable trigger speed, it's on/off only.

I'm a mega weirdo and have many cordless screwdrivers like this, but for $20 bucks, it's worth the price of admission if you can live with the above.

Thanks @wire for posting this.

Update to lost shipment: cart was delivered to wrong address and wrong state, I called main CEVA and they deferred me to local CEVA in Illinois. CEVA said it was a data entry error. I like companies that admit to mistakes then makes an effort to correct it. Kudos to CEVA, they contacted the homeowner yesterday, and were in process of retrieving today. If all goes well next week it will start a new journey to CA.

Meanwhile, Amazon was apologetic and offered me $20 on my account, which I quickly gifted myself this for an additional $10STWING BIG BLUE Engineer's Hammer - 48 oz Sledge with Forged Steel Construction & Shock Reduct...png's Hammer - 48 oz Sledge with Forged Steel Construction & Shock Reduct...png:
This week's update: CEVA retrieved my cart from the homeowner in Urbana IL, then moved it to their warehouse in IL, and instructed me to call them early next week to get details on the status of shipment to CA. Unknown if it will be the same or new tracker ID. To-date, I am only working directly with CEVA and not Amazon. As far as Amazon is concerned, they only know it was delivered! My confidence level I will receive my cart has increased from 5% to > 50%.

I hope you get it! Its been good. I'm not sure I'll need to replace the tires with solid units, I like it so far. I've put about 250lbs on cart top with no issues.

What's weird about having a lot of cordless screwdrivers? I have 4 portable bandsaws, 2 table saws, 2 drill presses, 2 thickness planers, no less then 10 routers, countless drills, hundreds of manual screwdrivers...should I go on? :ROFLMAO:
Was reading this and thought “most of this makes sense, but who needs two table saws?” and then I remembered I own two table saws

Exactly!

How about three media blast cabinets, two of which are functional, a gravity media blast hopper that works but when you’re done your ears are filled with sand, plus a cheap pressure pot that I never did get dialed in.

Could somebody please start a separate thread about these cart’s !! This tread has been completly side tracked by these posts. I mean should we all start posting the details about every item we order and it’s current location in the delivery process?

The reason I bring this up is. Has anyone else noticed that the posting of actual Amazon deals has slowed to about nothing and that the people who used to be interested in posting deals for all of our benefits have disappeared from this thread.

Just something to consider!

I still miss @TheRealBastard

Despite being, well...a real *******, he posted some good deals.

I get what your saying but the title of the thread is Amazons new deals on retail items and that cart was the hottest deal in this whole thread. That cart has been going in and out of stock at that deal. When and if it comes back , they will be selling another.

In order to not tie up this thread and be guilty of what I am complaining about this will be my last comment on this.

And I get what you’re saying also. Except my comment was not about the availability of the cart and when it comes in and out of stock. Here is the main point of my previous post. “I mean should we all start posting the details about every item we order and it’s current location in the delivery process?”

People are excited about a near suckage level deal on the carts. Since delivery is non standard I don’t have an issue with those updates 🤷‍♂️
