New Snapon "EPIQ" series tool storage!!

[TheGrooveking]

I finally received my top box. It finally got here last week after multiple delays. I will say that the top is built exactly the same as the bottom and makes the total unit huge. This is the best tool storage unit you can buy. I have had three other new boxes over the years and this will be the last for me.

So am I reading this right, it took 5 months for your Epiq top box? If so what did the dealer/Snap On do for you because ofthe delays?

It took 2 months to get my bottom box. Dealer didn't cut me a deal even though I sold a different Epiq box for him.

You seem to be in the minority of stock analysts. The median prediction for SNA is about a 13.5% increase over the next 12 months. I think I will continue buying SNA stock. It has been a good investment for me and it continues to pay a regular dividend.

Yeah, ENRON looked good to the analysts good too. lol (just chain yanking)

Hi everyone.I m new and it's 1st post.I got my 76" EQIP yesterday.I bought it to replace my KRL 761.needs to wait 3 weeks.Amazing box,love it . If anyone know Snap on has drawer guards for this box ?Not found them online or catalog.

 

[noonehas]

Not sure how long your dealer has been in business but snap on made boxes in white years ago but only shorlty, I remember this cause a tech had a huge double boxes with locker.

 

[Toolhorder]

I love my lock n roll drawers. All non techs can't open the drawers and when they break they are easy to replace. Also if you don't like them they are easy to remove completely.

The factory actually had the delays. The dealer was great about everything. I had originally ordered the box with a stainless lid but the lid seemed to be the cause of the delays. I had the dealer change the order to a drawer section top box that matches the roll cab perfectly and has two more drawers than I originally ordered. It was worth the wait.

 

[rsanter]

my dealer has one on the truck...it is beautifull
I so want one but cannot justify the cost...got too many other things I want first

I can get one for $7000 plus tax
still too rich for my blood

Sorry to resurrect this thread from the grave, but just wanted to see if this is a good deal on the Epiq 84 toolbox:

http://store.snapon.com/KERN843B5-E...9-Drawers-84-Wide-Deep-Cranberry-P650491.aspx

I have ordered the above box for $7200 (+tax) with a trade in of my 20 year old KRL661 (in excellent condition) plus they are giving me $750 in tools.
Is this a good price.

Hope it is not inappropriate to post on this thread.

Thx in advance

Sounds fair to me I am sure some have gotten better some have gotten worse you are gonna love it. I have a 68 but considering an 84

Wow thats an amazing deal. What was the retail price of your box?

 

[warmpancakes]

15,300 same exact box as the link you posted Just white with black trim

 

[jeffmoss26]

What is a 'rainmaker rebate'?

 

[warmpancakes]

its was one of the "double" rebate promotions from snap on, its been called 4th gear, overdrive, rainmaker,
they just double the rebates when financed through them, if your driver is cool he will tell you when they are coming so you can take advange of them, My driver says they will be back in april so im holding off on the riser till then because its an extra 300 in rebates



page 14 of this PDF has the chart

are you financing through snap on? There should be rebates right now, the 10% tool cert is from snap on, tell the driver to apply it towards the box, He will say he cant do that he can

 

[rock1t]

Thanks for the clarification!! I feel a bit shortchanged hahaha

 

[StackedDodge96]

Im about to buy a 68" epiq for $5880
-$4300 cornwell trade in
-$1200 rebate
-$4xx taxes

Not to bad, refuse to stay with snap on's financing at 18% intrest. So im going through my bank.

 

[mshell56118]

if the deal is better through snap on financing use it then get bank loan to pay it off b4 any interest is applied

[rock1t]

Stacked Dodge - Firstly, Congrats

Your credit not so hot? Snap-on guy trying to screw you?

They gave me 9% on my box just a few days ago.

 

[bobcatdan]

SO interest is very weird. I had 9% interest from them for a long time. I bought some stuff and added to my account. A few weeks later I notice the paper work and I was at the sky high rate. My credit rating is north of 750. I paid that account of pronto. I think the 9% is a floating promo rate. If you time right when you buy, you can get it. I seem to remember my dealer making like the 9% was a special thing to get. 9% isn't really something to get excited about, but hell it is better then most credit cards and a bank isnt going to do a lot better unless you have the means to get a secure loan on it.

 

[MattPersman]

I heard the driver can give you the 9% or the default is usually 18

 

[Heavy Metal Doctor]

I also got the 9% through SO Credit deal last year.

 

[StackedDodge96]

Defalut is 18% they could give me 9%

My credit is VERY good for my age, 756 at 23. Im going through snap on to get the rebate then im getting a loan from the bank to pay them off with no intrest. The bank offered the loan at 6.25% two months ago, im trying to work em down though.

Thank you!
Im buying the normal configuration I guess, I havent seen the box in about a month since he took it off the truck. $5880 is after EVERYthing done. Only thing that will be added is the finance charge of $40 (I think?). Plus $500 to spend on the truck!

 

[warmpancakes]

41.00 thats the fee to record the loan with the state

 

[SS5150]

My driver said at the time (3 years ago) that he was only allowed to write 2 contracts/month at the 9%, assuming that you would even qualify.

I bought an 84" epiq, but mine has the powertop without the laptop section in it. I received the double rebate at the time and qualified for the 9%. Also 90 days same as cash. I want to say it ended up about $5000 + my Macsimizer trade. Its been awhile so I don't recall the details anymore.

I saw the pics of the white with black trim and those are nice. I don't remember any trim color options when I bought mine. I did standard black/chrome. Shined it up today after work. Still looks sharp.

I meant to ask about the 90 days same as cash, im hoping it is. I wanted to pay alot more down with my tax return then I will be able to. So it looks like Ill slow down my tool buying a lot for a while till I can pay it off. I have all the tools I use all the time, just borrow certain things from time to time so mostly specialty stuff im buying now!

 

[SS5150]

I did the same thing, all the above I mentioned and I used my tax return to pay mine off right away. I had to use the SO credit to get the $1000 rebate. I think all the contracts have the 90 days same as cash.

 

[StackedDodge96]

Its being whored around all ready...

 

[MattPersman]

Is that the sapphire blue or royal?

 

[StackedDodge96]

Driver told me Midnight. I need to check in the morning it looks more like royal.

 

[pseshooter300]

Is there anymore pics of this blue one anywhere?

 

[pseshooter300]

Reason I was asking looks like a box I looked at and just wanted to see a better pic of this box

 

[StackedDodge96]

Ask and you shall recieve!




Old pic, its got more in it now.

 

[pseshooter300]

That is the one I looked at that looks good

68 Epiq Snap~On red black trim. 3 weeks old

Is this a midnight blue or a royal blue??? It seems that the epiq series blue is wayyyy more polished! That clear coat Looks beautiful

 

[B_Lafayet]

I was talking to a friend who just bought an Epiq 68" roll cab from his driver for 50% off plus tax without a trade. He said the driver had it left over from the show and wanted to get rid of it. Is this the going discount for an Epic if one orders from the dealer via the show specials.
