Noticed that Amazon is having a 10% off everything sale (in their tool dept anyway). Porter Cable's pin nailer is on sale for $108. Then minus the 10%. Seems like a good deal for under a hundred bucks. Then again so does another Bessey Cabinet Door clamp kit for $89. How'd Amazon know it's tax return time?

woohoo...thanks for the heads up. I'm going to order the pin nailer - don't forget there's a 25.00 rebate on that as well. That makes it nearly as cheap as the harbor freight version.

I was able to pickup both a Fuji Q4 for 675 and the Freud SD608 for 157. Good day for deals, bad day for the tool budget. :D

I was able to pick up a rip fence and the carter guides for my Jet 14" bandsaw. But when I went back to order some router bits the 10% off is for only one use per person. Amazon seems to be changing their policy on the promotions. Just thought I would give everyone a heads up to order everything at one time.

The 10% off is for items sold by Amazon, not by Grizzly, Northern Tool, etc..

The Grizzly tools are sold through Amazon not by Amazon

Hope that clears it up for you Julio

I sort of figured that was the case but was going through major denial.

Just to add to the frenzy:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002HC67G/104-0075952-2992727?n=228013

Bessey Tradesman set of 30 and mobile clamp rack - $249.97 - 10%
Averages out to $7+ per clamp depending on how you buy - I guess that is pretty good.

(midway down on page - "buy both")

Nope, I'm not buying them, no budget for it (or room for that matter):D
Just thought I would pass it along.

Wes,

I purchased a set of these recently and they jsut picked them up today (I hope) for a return. It does not say anywhere on the site but these are the TGJ2.5XX (xx is 06 for 6", 12 for 12" etc) and they have a 2.5" jaw. I got them with a few pads missing so they were willing to do a return on them. I instead ordered a few of those Irwin clamps with the 5 inch reach and some jorgenson 3700 series in the heavy duty. Hopefully they are made better than the besseys. Maybe I just had my standards so high after working with the K bodys first.

Brian, good to know, thanks for clarifying. I'm surprised they are not top notch coming from Bessey though. I just happened to come across these - I have neither the budget nor the room for them.:rolleyes:

Just ordered two 24" and two 31" Bessey's. With the 10% off and free shipping it's like getting one for free.......

Thanks Todd! I just placed my order for the Jet VS Mini Lathe. It's on sale for the same price as the non-VS model AND has a $25 mail-in Rebate. After the 10% off sale, I'll bring it home for about $225 after the mail-in rebate.
It qualifies for free shipping too!
