    Got notified of a paypal dispute today

    thats the point. if they scam for a large amount, people fight tooth and nail to get it back. small amounts they just give up and let them have it. if he does this to several people hes pulling in $20 every time. thats same as a scam with credit cards, hit people for 10 cents each, they think...

    hole in my compressor tank

    safety has been addressed well enough. just replace. you can pick up a newer compressor that has a bad motor/compressor cheap and transfer your good stuff to it.

    Who has switched to a cordless impact

    I use the Snap On 18 volt (Ni-CD) 1/2" and 14.4 volt 3/8" everyday. I found not having to drag an air hose around to be great. I sold my old Matco (rebranded IR) 3/8" air impact but I did keep my IR 2135ti 1/2" for the really stubborn stuff. I use the air IR maybe once in 2-3 weeks?? thinking of...

    Snap On dealer refused warranty because he does not have enough money.

    does that hold true for MATCO as well? I have heard stories of one dealer that wont honor warranty if the tools were not bought from him.

    Question about a amazon cart

    I had a chance like that once, I never got around to pricing drawers but I decided i was better off buying a new 46 and saving the 2 hour roundtrip, gas, and wear and tear on the vehicle. After all of that I decided that I wanted the slightly smaller KRSC326.

    New Snap On cart

    the 4 wheel steer casters for one, the lid for another. plus it weighs less I think, could be wrong on that but its easier to roll than a big box. this is a crossover between box and cart. i have one of these in black and love it. i am all over the shop so I have almost everything i need in...

    Ratchet wrenches - one way or reversible?

    that nut stop feature is why I bought my craftsmans for the home and snap on for the shop. I like the reversable wrenches with the 15 degree offset. the angle can be used to your advantage, sometimes you need it angled one way, other times the otherway. the nutstop feature would keep you from...

    well my story would be most deserving garage. after 5 years of trying to get a house in the country with a shop I have finally got it! right afterwards everything went down the drain, paycut, medical problems, and several things found out about my new(used) house that had to be repaired.

    economy went to ****, so did the work, so the money I WAS making just isnt there and I want out of the payment before winter hits and work really dries up. Plus a valuable lesson learned. I was sucked into the whole big pretty box scheme. my fault and i admit it. I have come to learn what others...

    Buying a Snap-On or Matco box new from the dealer?

    well, as a person who bought a discounted box from my matco dealer. my advice is dont do it at all. save your money and buy it from ebay or craigslist. HUGE money saved by not buying new off the truck. I got $4000 off of my box that listed for $14,000. it was one he had on the truck so im sure...

    wow, i posted this early today and just got to read it. I didt expect 3 pages of this stuff! yes I have it on craigslist and ebay. no one has the cash up front. everyone needs truck financing to buy it. thats why I checked into dealer trying to sell it for me. I was quoted 10% by another dealer...

    MATCO dealer trying to sell my box

    I asked my MATCO dealer about trying to sell my box for me and he said he could put it on his truck for me. the box and hutch were bought from him new about 2 years ago. he said he charged 20% of the sale price to do this and MATCO would charge 9% to finance it for someone. Thats 29% right off...

    Let's see your toolbox.

    that bynford cart you have posted there appears to be the exact same one HF sells. I bought one of those and liked it except that the lid didnt open all the way vertical. I moved the shocks on it and made it work though. most people seem happy with this cart...
