Never heard that name before. lol  We call 'em China Freight   .....Hippy


We just call it horrible freight

But in all so honesty there c clamps, grinding discs, flap wheels, moving dollies, moving blankets are good

They are also good for limited or occasional use tools

The silver tarps are better than the blue ones

Price check almost everything I buy on the internet

As for harbor freight some of their tools are good quality. Others aren't worth the junky cardboard they're shipped in.     I'm a fan of the better toolboxes.   Defiantly worth checking into.    Also like the jackstands I have several 6 ton and a pair of 12 ton.

They (company store) are sold-out of product today? Coke is 5 months in on purchase...….they are able to market well enough to create scarcity and others collect $5.04 a can for it?

They are "up grading" the bottling plant in New Hampshire.

I've got 10 or 12 cases in Virginia, same in N.Y. and only 5 or 6 cases in Maine.

Amazon pricing is getting to be as bad as Grainger

And its not even exotic or hard to find items they are gouging you on? They have some, unique, captured, items you can’t get elsewhere, so set your price in that case........but this is stuff you can find at any corner Hardware Store.

Some exotic stuff is reasonable on Amazon. I just bought a Luffa used by John the Baptist with a free copy of  Noahs original plans for the ARK for only $3995.00 guaranteed to be authentic with a sworn certificate from King Solomon..

Sorry Paul but you got screwed. Solomon was a proven liar as per his father David whom I acquired the originals from through family passdown. In fact after David slew that SOB Goliath, wasn't nobody gonna doubt a damned thing David said. And that was before he was king!!

My kids spent literally hours with the calligraphy set and left me wondering what they was working on. Never knowed what all that leather was for they was buying either. Their sudden interest in sheep befuddled me. 

I have the original Ark plans and use them for a formal dining room table cloth as the hide holds up quite well under the clear plastic.

Well at least Thomas Jeffersons BiC pen he used when he wrote the Declaration of Independence I got on Amazon is real.

Just be careful when you "Flic your Bic" as I'd hate to see anything happen to the instrument as it's a very important part of the country's history.
