Recently, I've been unable to view tool prices on the Harbor Freight
web site. When did this happen? I ueed to check prices there before
going to a store.

This doesn't seem to happen to me. Can you give a SKU number that's a problem?

Which HF site are you using. There is one, that you can find more
items, http://www.harborfreightusa.com/usa/common/start.do

And the e-commerce web site, http://www.harborfreight.com

Damn I know to much about HF.....

Interesting. I never knew about the HarborFreightUSA.com site. It seems to
have some products than are not on the e-commerce site, but missing many
other products that are on the e-commerce site. Rather schizophrenic.

Hopefully one day, HF will merge these two separate-but-related companies
(retail and online) into one unified organization, with consistent pricing
and inventory.

I did a search on "code reader", found this, and then had to call a
retail store to find out it costs $49.

You didn't come up with a SKU number, but I searched that weird-back-door HF
site for "code reader", found the SKU number, punched it into the regular HF
site and in about ten seconds found

http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=46030

which is worth doing because it's ten bucks cheaper online! By the way, HF often
has cheaper prices online, but their stores honor these prices, just print out
the page and show it to them.

I don't see any reason to use the harborfreightusa site. Yet.

On further looking, I notice the HFUSA site isn't "live", all you can do from it
is print out SKU numbers. However, from there you can view their sale flyer,
which has some prices which are better than the ones on the HF side. It also may
be possible to print out that flyer, and to carry that to a store.

Richeson quickly quoth:

Ick, that one SUCKS! (Copyright 2003?)


And the e-commerce web site, http://www.harborfreight.com

That's DEFINITELY the one you want to go to. Print out their
sale price and take it into the brick and mortar place for
the discount, no questions asked. The only exceptions are
things which are sold online only, so call first.


Damn I know to much about HF.....

LOL! Ditto. I probably own 1/4 of items in their store over
the past 3 decades that I've been shopping there.

OK. Harbor Freight's Web site is http://www.harborfreight.com and it has all the
prices and you can order from the site. There is also the weird site the OP
mentioned which is http://www.harborfreightusa.com which doesn't have prices
(except printed in miniature in their sales flyer) and from which you cannot
order. The OP wanted to know what happened to the prices on the second site.

GWE

OK, I can see now what is happening. I originally got to this site
(harborfreightusa) by clicking on a link provided by a harbor-freight
email, and had stored it as a starting point for future searches. I
didn't notice that it was not the same site I had been using before
(harborfreight).
