I am getting a bit confused, is the new 211 inverter available for the rebates?

I see zoro is still selling the old model and it appears that cyberweld sells the newer one.

Yes.

The rebate is good through 12/31/2015.

Zoro does not stock the new inverter model yet.

My point was, the rebates are good until the end of the year, Zoro will eventually get the new model and run a flash sale... so don't be afraid to wait to buy a 211 :)

The free spool gun rebate is OVER.

The free spool gun rebate is OVER.

I bought a 211 a couple weeks ago with the 25% off sale. I sold it for $900 and then sold one of the accessories that I purchased for $525. I wanted the spool gun for my current 211 (had that one for over a year). By doing this, I paid almost nothing for the other accessories (liners, tips, and other consumables) and Miller will send me the $400 rebate. Now my "GF" is going to buy this one and I have all ready found someone to buy the accessory, then I can sell the welder and I will make another $400, sadly no spool gun, but still a good deal.

I ultimately want the inverter version, so when I buy that one (technically my Dad will buy that one), I can sell my old one and keep the inverter.

Does that make any sense?

Another thought is they are drop shipping the welder to my "GF" so I guess it could be possible that it would be the inverter welder. I know they are different part numbers, but a man can dream, right?

There is no limit of how many rebates and individual can claim according to Melissa (the lady who handles the rebates at Miller).

What accessory is selling for $525?

I just read the terms and conditions all it says is one rebate per invoice. That is even better. Now I can go and buy it on my own account! I love this rebate.

Thanks to all that have shared their unused codes, with those of us who didn't get one this time.

Anyone else have a code they are not going to use?

THRTY0A3P0 if anyone needs it before the deal ends.

Edit: I shared mine this time, next time there is a 30% off I'll probably order.
If anyone has a code they will not use the next time there is a sale, please pm it to me. Thanks!

Im sure their CSRs would honor it tomorrow if you asked. Just say you had an issue at check-out.

I always find these 30% off deals a great time to pick up a few Channellock items I have been wanting. Five different pliers/cutters for $52 shipped....not bad.

I did some shopping early and put items in cart but didn't checkout. Hours later when I went back online, Zoro sent a email reminding me that I did not checkout. To convince me to buy they offered a additional discount and free shipping.
I gotta shop now for the next sale so I'm ready to buy for the next 30 % deal. If they would make their site more user friendly they would sell more. It can take time to find what you want.

The thing I wish they had was a wish list or a save for later option. It is a pain finding things and then having to reenter the part numbers or search again later.

Here is a 15% off code that is good until 8/13

GHK9D0DRV ( zero could be an "O" as well)

I don't browse their site often, but what I did this time was use google and searched "site:zoro.com" (without quotes) and then the item I was interested in. I was searching for specific items though, not just browsing.

Nothing odd that I noticed...

Picked up an Echo 770T backpack blower. $75 less than MSRP, $35 less than anywhere else I could find.

UPS tracking says its "Out for Delivery". :)

I have a $5 off $25 code if anyone wants it. I won't be using it. Same deal everyone gets for signing up for the email list.

Both of the items I bought got back-ordered, one until 8/26, the other until 9/3. Dammit.

This comes after the big drill press I ordered back on 7/28 STILL has not been delivered! They shipped it via a freight outfit in Oakland. The first delivery window was last week Thursday from 1-3, no one ever showed up, emailed or called. I was pissed. I tried phoning the shipping company but a human never answered. I did get a B.S. email reply that was non-committal to a delivery date/time. After calling Zoro they intervened on my behalf and got a hold of someone, they rescheduled delivery for yesterday from 11-1. I got a call from Zoro about 10am, my drill press 'did not make it onto the delivery vehicle'. Now I am really friggin pissed. Rearranged my schedule twice to be here for the lift gate delivery. I was considering cancelling the order because the shipper didn't know when they would make it up here for delivery. Zoro called me around noon to let me know they had spoken to the manager and delivery would be today between 10-2. Great, a friggin' 4 hour window where I can't get much accomplished because I have to stay here. I'm already angry about this sh!tty shipper they chose to use, then both of the items I ordered get back-ordered 2-3 weeks. I think I will reconsider any future orders from Zoro, not a happy camper at all.

I guess that stuff can happen. I will be interested to see how well things go with my Knaack boxes that I ordered.

That freight outfit in oakland didn't happen to be UPS freight did it?

Its really not Zoro's fault. I have run into this same BS (3 times now). 1 order from zoro, and 2 from Grizzly. All 3 times, UPS freight. Apparently my local UPS freight terminal is run by a bunch of rejects.

Thanks, I'll try that. I'm gonna search for my goodies and then bookmark the pages for later.
As mention, a wish list or save for later would be nice too.

Just got a shipping tracking number on what I ordered yesterday.

Had planned to buy and aircat 3/8 air ratchet and die grinder this week but since zoro sent me the 30% off I decided to go with an IR ratchet and grinder. Saved 40 bucks on what I would've paid if I would have went with aircat.

I didn't get it either and I recently signed up for the emails. I've been waiting for this for a while now. Oh well.

Got a similar tracking number. Mine was :FXFLTLPRIORITYNOTRACKING. Anybody know if these freight companies just show up or do they contact you to make an appointment?

Thanks to everybody on the forum. Been lurking for a while. Never heard of Zoro until I found GJ. Got a good deal with the 30% off yesterday.

Last time I had a freight company deal with something from Zoro I recieved an email the day after it shipped with an estimated arrival date. The day before arrival the freight company called and asked if I needed lift gate, they day of the driver calls me asking where my dock is... he had no lift gate. Their depot was close to my place so I just went there and loaded it into the back of my truck.

I have 8 UPS tracking #s. I did buy 6x 2' * 1' * 1' crates. evidently nothing packed inside them. Wonder if UPS will let it sit in a depot for a week like they did part of my last order :mad:
Try leaving items in your cart, I think that may push them to offer up some discount codes.
I keep some clamps that make good filler in my cart.

Need to find consumables on their site that make good filler...
