Zoro Deals Thread

[cagullett1]

Just noticed the 211 is backordered now. I received an order confirmation email at 11:48AM and order status says "pending fulfillment" on Zoro's site. My brother received order confirmation at 12:54PM and still says "pending approval" on Zoro's site. Hopefully they can atleast give us the serial # so we can complete the rebate forms before August 15th!

I hope so, too. It would **** to miss out on the rebate because of a shipping delay/technicality... My order is quoted to be shipped in "7 - 10 days." I'm hoping that Zoro over-performs, and gets it shipped sooner. They are usually very good at getting things out.

I ended up with a steal on a Graco 395 FinishPro II 395 PC and a pair of 36" Knipex Bolt Cutters. Happy camper here. Thanks Zoro

 

[Strouty]

No email yet, but if it looks like there is going to be a delay, I will most likely cancel the order.

 

[crewchief437]

My 211 order also says pending fulfillment. I'm not seeing an estimated ship date though. Anyway to know if I'm in the back ordered group without calling? If I don't make the 15th I'll cancel my order and wait for 30%

Why, so you can wait for the next flash sale?

I ordered 2 of the 211s and 4 spoolies,, got my ship notice,, whpiiiteeeee

 

[countrysquire]

Not to rub it in (too much), but I ordered my 211 at 1:23PM CDT and it is already out for delivery today, coming from the Zoro warehouse outside of Dallas.

I foresee a lot of melted steel from this thread.

WHYYYYYYYYYY. This is driving me crazy!

Was this placed all on 1 order or 2? In the fine print of the Spoolmate rebate form, it states "One submission per invoice."

 

[shaqdaddy86]

I ordered at 12:56PM yesterday and called this morning. Mine is on backorder with another shipment en-route in 10 business days. I cancelled my order.

Last time I ordered something from them it said 10 business days, and it was on my doorstep in 5. I'm waiting to cancel, don't want to be too premature.

wallmart link PROTO J1206SCP Screwdriver Set

PROTO J1206SCP Screwdriver Set

I thought this was a good deal. I used the wallmart link due to having 5x 50$ giftcards from the bonus points of my credit card.

I guess I will be patient as well. It looks like location may have something to do with who got shipping notices. Because I ordered before other people did and I am "pending fulfillment" still. Basically the rebate has to be postmarked by the 15th, but they also accept email and fax submissions. Of course the 15th is a Saturday. Maybe we should find out if there is a different date for email or fax submissions.

That's my same thought. Based on past experiences. They are pretty good at getting things out to you. I'm going to give them a chance to come through in time...

Yeah, I think they ship them from a distributor up in Montreal....

Dang, lesson learned this time around.

I ordered a yellowjacket vacuum pump, great price with the 25%. However, since my state feels they should earn $25 on the purchase, I had it shiped to my parents in AZ thinking I would then just pay the $5 dollar UPS redirect fee.

In this case, since it shipped from California, UPS charged not only the $5 but an added $42 dollar extra transport fee. On top of that, it will now take almost a week to arrive.

Oh well, guess it would have been faster and cheaper to pay off the politicians in my home state. A great buy turned into an OK buy.

I called this morning about both orders. The one that says "pending fulfillment" is ready to ship, but hasn't been picked up by UPS. They are looking into the "pending approval" one. She said that when you order, the pull ticket goes to the warehouse and is removed from inventory. She said because the order was so large that a credit team has to approve it, but the warehouse already has the pull ticket. Fingers crossed everyone gets theirs in time.

 

[shaqdaddy86]

Quitter!!

Told the wife I was buying a $400 welder; since I was already assuming the resale of $600 worth of spool guns in that price I felt I better back out. And when I called I interpreted as Zoro was getting the welders in 10 business days, and that the time in shipping to customers would be on top of that.

 

[MNRZR]

And when they told me 10 days it took over a month. YMMV

 

[crewchief437]

My confirmation was at 1005 CST. Called Zoro. All pieces are there should ship out today. I am in south MS so i would assume my distribution center is in Dallas as well.

 

[GlobalTJB]

I am in VA and they told me it was shipping from SC. UPS shows it shipped from Oakland, CA instead. SO much for my plans of using it this weekend. Still no response from CS regarding the tax miscalculation.

Does anyone know if zoro has a list of states they do not charge tax from so I can avoid getting charged in the future by shipping to a relative.

2. Sales Tax.

Zoro charges sales tax on shipments made to the following states: California, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and Wisconsin.

if the company has a presence in a state, then it is required to charge tax for that state. If not, then you are required by state law to pay tax when you file your state return. Some people opt to not include the internet purchases on their tax return.

thanks for that.

I got a call on the "pending approval" because my billing and shipping addresses didn't match (intentionally). She said that because my order was on hold, it is just now being sent to the warehouse and will be one of the backordered ones. DAMN

I did the Zoro 20% last week or so, one reason to avoid time running out on the rebate and back-orders due to the foreseen rush on the 211's from Zoro. Everything arrived in 3 days.

E-mailed the rebate forms this am, and got this response in a couple of hours.

"We have received your submission and everything looks good.
We are currently running 3-4 weeks for processing rebate checks and Spoolgun orders (shipping via UPS direct from Miller). Please allow sufficient time for your rebate check and free Spoolgun to arrive (you may receive your rebate check before the spoolgun as Miller is experiencing back orders in some warehouses, but it will arrive).
Thank you for your patience!"


All looks good with the Miller rebates with buying from Zoro.

[vintagespeed1956]

Told the wife I was buying a $400 welder; since I was already assuming the resale of $600 worth of spool guns in that price I felt I better back out...

oh brother i know that feeling! i told the wife last night when i got home that i bought a(nother) welder....she gave me the because i just bought a TIG last month.

 

[squashman702]

Where do you email the rebate form? Was planning to mail it but that sounds like the faster and safer option incase anything is not right.

i printed mine off a link many pages back in this here thread.

 

[Lu-Max]

I didn't get a welder....
But, I did get a big drill press I have been watching (for the best price) since back around January. It includes free lift gate delivery. Very happy with the price.
Oh, and I also got a cover for my 211, mostly to keep the cables out of my way when I'm not using it.

 

[white6589]

Whoa!, wait a minute, back up.

You told you're wife???!!!???

 

[Socal 610]

Fyi- to anyone who ordered $400.00 in accessories to take full advantage of the rebate. Your total purchase in accessories needs to be $400.00 after the 25% off.
