Anyone ever get tired of these crooked online Florida tool companies like Abolox LLC ripping people off and then reincarnating themselves into another company? It must be easy to do this in Florida. Not in Georgia!

This outfit was MROCenter.com, then WorksmartPro.com, and now Abolox LLC that has Aboloxtools.com.

No wonder why Amazon is so huge.

Hey, MROcenter still owes me two armstrong sockets ($12)! That was from almost a year ago....

I have bought from abolox 4 or 5 times and my experiences have been fine. They do cancel an item or 2 that are unavailable or on a long back order.
They are just your typical drop shipper. I mostly purchased a few Williams items from them via their website.
I noticed they added a bunch of the Apex line to their line up. i did get a little pissed that what I ordered was on backorder and cancelled,I feel like if you do not have take it off of your website. I do not believe they actually have anything in stock ,but rather drop ship it.

I wish I had looked up the reviews. I like Bahco products. They're a great Swedish company who makes edge tools and much more at reasonable prices. I googled their chainsaw files and Abolox was one of their distributors. They shouldn't be. I'm going to write Bahco about my experience. Hopefully more worthy sellers who deserve sales of this great product will gain the business! This company is no good.

Anyways, I ordered the typical dozen boxes of files for chainsaws in various sizes (all the common ones) and they shipped 1 Piece! A single file for the cost of 12!? I don't think so! Multiply that by dozen boxes of several file sizes and it adds up. They also charged me for an item that was back-ordered and didn't refund. Who does this!?! Back-ordered is bad enough, but not shipping the item and still charging for it, then holding to that it doesn't need to be refunded!! Unthinkable.

Either they're really good at making mistakes and moving on in their own favor or they are scam artists. Regardless, it's a scam when you pay for something you don't receive and the company doesn't fix the problem. This is too bad!

I have had correspondence with them and they have not corrected or offered to thus far. I will update the post based on if they hold up their end of the transaction.

Edit: it wasn't the most pleasant or should I say easy correction to a problem with an order, but they sent what was missing. I hope I'm in the minority on major quantity errors like this. Mistakes can happen.

Toolsdelivered is also a Bahco dealer and usually has better pricing,but Abolox carries a few items from the Williams/ Bahco Line that TD does not offer.

I bought some Williams impact sockets from Abolox last week. It was a decent price, and they shipped via USPO, so it came quick and cheap. Toolsdelivered and Zoro want to ship via UPS, which can cost ten times what the post office charges.

Interesting about Abolox experiences here. I have ordered quite a few times from them and had good results every time. Including about 30 Bahco files. I think I did wait quite a while for one back ordered item, but the price was right and was in no hurry. But that was the only glitch I can thin of.
