While the Fedex and UPS rate increases are certain for next year, there's a lot of discussion about 35-45% tariffs on imports. That'll be great for all the people on the list who insist on US Country of Origin but could be a real game changer for all the Asian and Euro exporters.

I just received an email from Fedex that their ground rates are increasing 4.9% effective January 2nd, 2017. UPS is probably sending out a similar letter to their customers. More importantly, the dimensional rate factor is changing from 166 to 139 (dim wt increase of approx 20%). For...

In December each year, I usually run a sale on Facom, often to get rid of overstock or obsolete items. This year I've listed 100 items, most of them popular and current, in an attempt to introduce new customers to the brand. Items are deeply discounted and quantities are limited to what I have...

I've opened up the Reseller price sheet to everyone from now through June 15. See http://www.ultimategarage.com/Facom-Inventory.xls There's also a Facom newsletter for anyone interested in their tools or history....see http://www.ultimategarage.com/Facom/facomnews.html . Plenty of tool, shop...

I've started an online newsletter which will be updated on an ongoing basis with info on Facom tools....new and discontinued items, maintenance and service tips, price changes and general commentary. If you have any good pictures of your own Facom tools in action (or nicely stored in your tool...

Cleaning out my storage unit in Mooresville NC and need to get rid of a black double width drawer (it might be new) and assorted rails and drawer carriages. These are older style carriages (NLA from Lista) that I had been holding onto in case I had any failures with my existing cabinets. Need...

I am heading down to NC next week and will be cleaning out my storage unit. I had been holding onto some Lista drawers for future projects but will probably never use them. They may have minor cosmetic (paint) issues but work fine. 3 Red ones shown above are all the newest style....1...

Just got one of these in today. Nice design and incredibly thin lamp body for getting into tight spots....its less than 1/2" thick. I suspect others will follow with similar products. As this is a new product, it is currently being made in France. Eventually, like all other LED products in...

I'm still a big believer in T5's and T'8's for general lighting in the garage but I've got a bunch of 5" recessed fixtures above my workbenches and in the detail garage that use PAR30's. I just got some of the new Lumiram 40w PAR30 LED lamps and was pretty impressed. I wrote a review with a...

I ran this on the Festool Owners Group forum and sold quite a few....still some left at 20% off the retail pricing. Classic Tanos Systainers (not the newer T-Locs's). Available in Red, Yellow, Emerald Green, Sky Blue, Grey and Anthracite. These are new from Tanos (purchased this year)...

Wera is a European brand that I brought in for their quality screwdrivers and bits. Unfortunately, there's so much deep discounting on Wera between Chad's Toolbox and Amazon channel vendors (and no factory enforcement of their MAP policy) that the product line is not worth the investment. I've...

I imported a large amount of Toptul hand tools back in 2010 and was very impressed with their quality. Toptul had the nicest finish and packaging I'd seen among any of the Taiwanese tool companies. Unfortunately, their tools have not sold well here in the US. Toptul product is so inexpensive...

Back in the early 70's, I started buying McIntosh audio equipment and was very pleased with the service clinics the factory would hold at their dealerships throughout the year. They would inspect and sometimes service any of their equipment, regardless of age, at little or no cost to the...

Post deleted per Pug Man's request.....I don't have time right now with the move (50,000 lbs of product) and the massive clean-up to post pricing on all the items affected that are for sale. I'll resubmit the items here one by one with pricing and photos after I have done a proper evaluation...
