I have a little Sears story involving these pry bars. I was at Sears on Monday of this week. I brought about half a dozen items including the bars up to the cashier. Now, before I went I looked up my planned purchases on Craftsman.com. The pry bars and two other items I took to the counter were on sale on the Cman website. They were great deals, around half off, on the few Cman USA items I still want/need.
When the salesman finished ridiculing his coworker for slipping on the wet floor, he started ringing me up. I showed him the online prices and eventually he says they will match the two other tool(s) prices but not the pry bar. The pry bars went back to the shelf.
Today I return to the same store and again bring a few things up to the counter. A different set of employees were working and the guy ringing the tools up says no on the pry bar price match. I pointed out I could buy them on my phone right now and select store pickup. Another salesguy walks over and says they can price match, the guy ringing me up says, "I was told we can't".
So I get the bars, which are quality tools as everyone else has noted, for 20 bucks after the manager comes over and approves the price match. I am a Cman club member which I told them so I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
The take away from this for me is that not everyone at Sears is on the same page it seems. Not surprising I guess I mean it happens elsewhere but I always have an experience like this when I shop at sears. If you don't get satisfaction from one salesman, try a different one later.
I don't go there often but when I do there is always some angry customer there trying to get answers about something they had ordered or warrantied or some other complaint, That's not an exaggeration.
On a positive note, today I asked the employee who helped me what was going on with the clearance prices on all of the big tool sets. I was thinking it was the sign of some type of change. He told me they're going to replace the current sets and kind of pare down the total number of sets. I told him of my concerns about the future of Sears and he told me the store had just signed a five year lease on their mall space.
For whatever it's worth to you, that's my story. Have a good one!
Maybe something else USA made will be on sale next month.
