What's up guy's? I just wanted to let you in on something I discovered when I went to Harbor Freight last night. I bought a 3 ton floor jack that was on sale for $59.99 ( that I paid $48.00 with the 20% off coupon, Thank's Seth) They accept these coupons here at the St. Louis stores. Any who, so I get this jack home and I roll it over next to my Craftsman jack and IT IS THE SAME FRIGGIN" JACK! I am not talking it is "kind of like my Craftsman jack, No, It is exactly the same, all the way down to an inspection sticker! I paid $150.00 for that jack and got screwed all the way to the bank.
I alway's bought Quality tools like Craftsman, Snap On and some Matco tools. I bought an air drill off the Matco truck and stamped on the side of it it said "JAPAN". I am done giving these ass hole my money for over priced Jap tools that I can buy at Harbor Freight for a fraction of the cost. I also bought a 2 cabinet, ball bearing tool box that was an import brand new from an E-Bay store for $750.00 that lists for $1,400 at Sears and no telling what off the Snap On truck. I get it delivered to the shop and un-pack it and it is better quality than my Craftsman, heavier drawers,better sliders, gas shock lid etc. 1 of my friends has nothing but Snap On tools and he say's " Damn, that thing is as nice as my snap on box", I said "EXACTLY". He also now see's what king of money he is throwing away buying those "NAME BRAND" tools.
I have been shopping at Harbor Freight for many years and have learned what you can and cannot buy there, no electric tools. I bought a heat gun that lasted 20 min. before the brushes went up in a ball of flames. I took it back 3 times and they all lasted about the same, so after the last 1 went I said "hell with it" and just threw it in the trash. Harbor Freight has alot of good tools if you buy the most expensive ones. So let this be a lesson for all the guy's out there saying " I wouldn't buy any of those crap tools from Harbor Fright" The high dollar tools you are paying out the ass for probably came off the same line as my Harbor Freight tools!
