Not here, Don.
Prices are .9 Retail, at least.

That is the asking price. What is the selling price?

Heh , I got a glance of the tag when Greg pulled it off the nail gun I
just bought . They were askin' 40 bucks , he offered it to me for 20 .
Easily half of my power tools were purchased at this pawn shop , and they
know it . They also know it's my first stop when I need something .
I think I'm going to go with the HF battery drill , just not confident of
used batteries . There's no way that I know of to test those battery packs ,
at least with new I can get a warranty replacement if it's dead from the
gitgo . Replacement batteries for the name brand tools can easily cost more
than the tool ...


Or just take the battery pack to Interstate Battery (or who ever does that
near you) and have them rebuilt.

No where near as expensive as new ones!
