Well we have a HD and Lowes Permathread for deals so why not start an Amazon one. Specially with the holiday deals coming up.

Today’s gold box deal they have the black and decker matrix kit for 149. Never used this kit but a buddy of mine at work got one from his fiancée and said he actually thought it was a decent set, worked for him.

Here’s the link, this would make a good starter tool kit for someone.

Jimbo I used to have the Autosense drill and it was a really good drill. One thing to pay attention to is how many good reviews these guys get. Certainly not trade tools but they make a really decent tool for the home owner in many cases.

This looks like a pretty cool kit. The buyers are giving it high reviews. Convenient way for someone to have an all in one tool. I wonder what the quality of each attachment is though.

Probably enough for the light home owner use, this would be a good kit for a kid starting to get into tools and such.

That’s the second one that has been under $9 in the past week! The first(5″ short round nose, 37 33 125) one lasted about a day, both were not in stock but able to order. Will post if there are any more, definitely a steal that everyone should jump on and consider if you need it later.

I saw those – what exactly does one use round nose pliers for? Perhaps picking up O-rings?

 

Mostly working with wire…but they can be used as non-marring(smooth jaw) needle nose pliers, like if you’re working on jewelry.

For the life of me I cant think of a specific use for round nose pliers besides making loops in wires, yet when I’m working on electronics theyre the pliers I reach for almost as much as bent nose.

I believe that is the original purpose but I also use them as smooth-jawed needle nose pliers(If I have the space) because they’re more sturdy with less of a gripping pinch point. Also in use mostly for electronics.

Today is 15% off Amazon Warehouse deals. Please check condition, most of the stuff I get from warehouse deals is new but out of packaging. Just go here and search for whatever brand you like, if you’re getting a lot of results you can limit price range or my favorite % off MSRP. Here’s the link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref=sr_nr_n_9?fst=as%3Aoff&rh=n%3A10158976011%2Cn%3A228013%2Cp_8%3A2229036011%2Cn%3A!468240%2Cn%3A328182011&bbn=10158976011&ie=UTF8&qid=1443594271&rnid=10158976011

 

 

I already picked up a set of Knipex needle nose pliers with comfort grip, for $21. On KCTool they were over $40, on ebay they were around $25 but on Amazon I have credit card reward points so I only paid $6! Good luck gentlemen!

Nice dude, thanks for sharing the link, now I have another spot to check for deals!

I just ordered three of these. Hopefully they come back in stock and aren’t so cheap because they were clearing them out. Can’t beat that price.

No problem, also, if you get the wrong item…as I just did today(I received a Husky ratchet instead of Gearwrench) try complaining via chat. I ended up with a full refund and a spare ratchet. Looks like someone scammed Amazon by buying a Husky ratchet and returning it to them in the Gearwrench packaging and I ended up with it…kinda sucks because I don’t want the Husky but can’t complain too hard when it was free.

Yeah, I figured it was worth it, they don’t even charge you until it ships so it’s worth a shot. I ended up buying two so I could have one at work and one at home.

I picked up the Dewalt cordless vacuum. I have a canister Ryobi but it kinda sucks and not in a good way. It uses filter papers which are a pain the plus is they are cheap compared to a real filter. The cool thing about the Ridgid cordless vac is it uses their fullsized filter everyone has them.

You need to quit tempting me with all of this knipex stuff Jimbo. If I didn’t already have a couple of Cobras I would probably get these

Tell me about it, between the Amazon deals and some reward points I’ve bought 10 pairs of Knipex pliers in the past two months. Thinking about making it 11.

Perhaps I missed it, but what tool are you guys using to track things on Amazon?

 

I found a site called. Camel,Camel,Camel that you sign into and add something to your watchlist and it will tell you when it drops to the price you want to pay.

 

Any other tools to use?

JimboS1iceMember since Sep 2015

No i just either search for tools and filter by price or search warehouse deals at 75% off and go down to 50 and so forth nothing other than searching and checking for other sellers than amazon. Alot of times ill search knipex then filter price low to high and watch the other seller prices. Just some time flipping through and make sure to share so other people see to.

What Jimbo said, but I also check some brands by price only. Then I verify the deal with camel camel camel, eBay and a few other retailers specific to brand.

I just put the stuff I want or need in my wish list And check it every couple weeks. The price drop usually last a month or it stays at that lower price.

Ok, thanks, I think I will play with Camel, Camel, Camel and see if I can snag a deal.

WigWagWorkshopMember since May 2015

I think Amazon purchased Camel Camel Camel, and incorporated the service directly in to Amazon.
