Seeing if there is interest in a group buy of channellock. Obviously the prices would be very, very good. I would need $1500-$2000 of tools bought to do it (you dont pay until I have them in hand and ready to ship). Prices would have to be handled in PM and not posted here. I would be doing this mid-late Jan.

I could probably use a couple pairs of pliers. No spider-man screwdrivers for me tho (aren't those made in China anyway?)

Im in, I need about 5 or 6 pairs of their pliers. I got a feeling theyll be very cheap like your Pratt Read deal was.

Thanks for doing it mrb, hope we get enough in!

I'd be down for some channellock adjustable wrenches, a few griplocks, and some smaller pliers.

Just to give my 2 pennies..their crimpers are the best made. I have been in the mobile electronics field for 20 years and have found no better. That being said I would be interested in stocking up on a few pairs.

Depending on savings over retail I would be interested in a handful.

Too bad Channellock no longer has the rebranded Grip-On locking pliers. Getting those for cheap would be awesome.

I don't want to rain down on this great selling of Channellock,but the last member that I bought from I paid almost in shipping as the price of the tool (don't even ask about the whole cost!!!).

Is the price of shipping going to kill me again? If not then I would be interested,but I don't want to buy one pair of pliers for $15.00 dollars and have it cost me almost the same in shipping.(in other words I am very leery this time around!:(:(:(

Same here. How much better than street pricing are we talking about?

I don't *need* any new tools, but Channellocks are a great value. Might be in for a few items.

woody has a good point - 1-2 tool orders would not be worthwhile at all as shipping would kill the deal.

I'd be interested in picking up a few things I don't have from Channellock to upgrade some of my Craftsman stuff (needle nose, slip joint, etc.). Shipping would also be an issue for me and would need to be reasonable. Way too many places to pick it up retail and prices have to be considerably better for me to go the sight-unseen route. When things are available retail, I usually pay the premium so I can hold it in hand and check it out before buying.

How much of a discount are we talking? If it is good enough I have a list of around $250 dollars retail that I want to buy and would be in if the discount is good enough. I would say I would drop around $150 for sure.

I'm interested if the price is good. Maybe 6 or 7 different pair of pliers.
