PASLODE

 

tim'll fix it, are you going to have a look at new tooling on ebay then??? I just got the dewalt 29 drill set for £30 when its £69 elsewhere.

or do you earn to much?

 

thats not a bad price at all is it. but then he probably woulnt touch a green boshe drill either lol

 

Neither would I............LOL ???!???

 

i have rarely touched bosch tools (green or blue) , i prefer better tools

that should get a response

 

"i have rarely touched bosch tools (green or blue) , i prefer better tools

personal choice

big all

 

There are much better tools on the market than Bosch and Dewalt but show any other manufacturer that can offer a complete set of cordless power tools that can run off the same battery.

 

Should read

But show <u>me</u>

 

still waiting for a european manufacturer with a battery operated router (not that i'll go and buy one [yet])

still waiting for a dewalt 24volt radio/charger

in the mean time festool power tools and a dewalt (spit) pullover mitre saw (spit) {i have avoided dewalt till now}

 

i think porter cable do a cordless router.

i can't see that it would be much use either, though.

 

in answer to a couple of posts above

1. yes porter cable do do a battery operated router

2 "battery operated router wont be powerful enough"

thats what people said about drill/drivers, but things advance, my 12v impact puts in 6inch screws.

if a powerful battery operated router becomes avaliable I for one will be interested

 

Tim I'll fixit,

An example was my new dewalt hoover (CE stamped) and in box. Hoover and delivered for £50, elsewhere this item would be £120. All my tooling is now ebay dewalts and sold my old tools on ebay. Every hand tools I need I also get on ebay, direct from the USA. An example was a DeWALT 3 Piece Rotary Masonry Bit Set Rapid Load. 2 packs £15 including delivery, takes 10 days to arrive. Elsewhere these are £15 each.

 

Only thing about USA tooling is its all imperial.

 

handyman, on items over I think it is the equivelent of £36, how do you get round not paying customs and excise the VAT and the £13.50 charge (for unidentified costs) by Parcel Force

That would make the basic purchace cost of the hoover around £31 or about $60 US

problem is the us price is around $99 (toolbarn)

 

thing is i like your prices and would like them myself but on the face of it they dont seem to add up

 

DD, the hoover is CE stamped and was posted from buxton (england).

Tooling over an amount is packaged as a 'gift'..........I have never had any charges. If your worried aboutr this just get tooling from UK based suppliers. (may be non CE stamped, but its posted from the uk so its not your problem)

 

Just got 2 sets of dewalt rapid load masonery drills through today from USA. £15 for the 2 sets (3 drills per set) including delivery. Yet again, no VAT or tax, nuthin.
