Yeah, what the other two said. You have to have a brain. Even Walmart has
some junk in their store.

*Even* Walmart?

FWIW if you cruise through Harbor Freight but look for "real" brand
names, you generally will be OK.

Yes, they do.

And from what I've read in this NG some people get things that last for
years. Consider the too good to be true prices, keep your expectations low
and you won't be disappointed.

Did you expect Snap-On quality?

Going to try Wal-Mart now?

You are right there... It all depends on what you buy from them. I
would never buy a Chicago Brand table saw from them but I regularly
buy tool bits and drill bits from them, tie-downs, air hoses, flash
lights, sanding & grinding disks, certain hand tools...... stuff like
that and have never been disappointed plus saved a bunch.

Regards,

Ditto that. I have been stung once but it was only a few dollars.
Have bought other things no problem. Latest is a 'stretchy' towing
strap for $6.99 that I have been using for two years snaking logs out
of the bush with my F150. It has brought the PU to a full stop
several times. I figure it will break one of these times but the
current listing doesn't have it anymore.
